The highly anticipated prequel to the global phenomenon, Outlander, Outlander: Blood of my Blood is a romantic tale that unfolds across time. From the battlefields of World War I to the rugged Highlands of 18th century Scotland, two fated couples must defy the forces that seek to tear them apart, unfolding in surprising and unforeseen ways. ​ 

After 11 years of epic romance on the groundbreaking series Outlander, the timeless tale continues - or rather begins - on the eve of an earlier Jacobite rebellion. Inspired by the book series written by Diana Gabaldon, the series explores the lives and relationships of two couples as they fight against all odds to be together: the parents of Outlander’s Claire Randall - Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine); and those of Outlander’s Jamie Fraser -Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) and Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy).
