[> 3. Without a doubt, Ian Sr. Loved his character-he was so gentle. Could not imagine losing my DH. This was so sad. -- Rollaine, 09:38:32 10/15/10 Fri

[> 3. Ian, most definitely. Love him! -- ladyphantom, 10:01:25 10/15/10 Fri

[> I agree - Ian Sr is too dear to loose. Even tho' he had lived a long happy life, we don't want him to go. -- Donna Mc, 10:02:04 10/15/10 Fri

[> #3 is what my heart picks....but #7 is my choice for plot, intrigue, and tension! I love wicked witches! -- Niseold, 10:05:17 10/15/10 Fri

[> [> I know it's not popular, but I pick #7 also - for the same reasons. Gellie is wicked, but I love her character! -- Scarlet A, 14:02:03 10/15/10 Fri

[> Dougal, definitely, I want to see what he looks like 'coz I always pictured him so different from the way he's depicted in Exile. I always saw those men as gruff and crusty, a little hefty, not pretty at all (except in a Highlander sort of way). -- JudyL, 10:07:54 10/15/10 Fri

[> Master Raymond - I don't think he is dead, but he is absent from the story now. I'd like to see him woven back in. -- Lady Grey, 10:10:01 10/15/10 Fri

[> [> Im with you here Carol. If I could have someone back it would be Murtagh. I dont think we got to see enough of his character and I just loved his loyalty to the ones he loved.... and he loved Jamie -- Aussiewench, 14:20:44 10/15/10 Fri

[> If he looks like he does in Exile, then Murtagh., otherwise I'll take Dougal.....I assume I get to keep him? -- jayn, 10:56:14 10/15/10 Fri

[> [> [> No, Diana describes him as small and rat-like and that is how he'll always be to me. My sis and I were at a fair once and saw a man we thought was him - the poor fellow probably still has a complex about why these 2 women burst out laughing looking at him - I felt so bad. -- jayn, 07:01:40 10/16/10 Sat

[> #6, Frank. DAMN! This is one difficult poll. Actually, it's a tie between Frank and Murtagh, but Frank for more info about all that wasn't said or witnessed in the 20 years Claire and Frank were together upon her return. -- Merrymags, 11:02:17 10/15/10 Fri

[> [> Merrymags: YOur text could be mine! I was also pondering between Frank and Murtagh, but if only one decision accepted, then Murtagh. He had lots of dry humour... -- Margit, 10:39:11 10/17/10 Sun

[> #2. Murtaugh definitely. Jamie is always safe when Murtaugh is around. I'd love for him to meet Brianna, Roger, Jem, Mandy and William -- krissn78, 12:37:53 10/15/10 Fri

[> Murtagh. I really liked Ian Sr., but Murtagh was such a fabulous character! -- Chirre, 12:38:36 10/15/10 Fri

[> I'd definitely pick Murtagh. -- Lady Oliver, 12:51:58 10/15/10 Fri


[ Edit | View ]








[> #2 Murtagh. This was difficult. I wanted to pick Ian Murray, Sr., but Murtagh was the more entertaining and proactive in the story. Only, I'm afraid that with Ian dead, this will forever turn Jenny into an even more warped, bitter old woman than she already is, who --jealous of J & C's happiness-- will create trouble. This happened with my favorite aunt, in spades. -- Lemora, 13:20:55 10/15/10 Fri

[> 9) Not sure if this answer is allowed, but I wonder if Faith would have been like Brianna? Or maybe she would have resembled Claire more? -- Cristina H, 13:24:37 10/15/10 Fri

[> October Poll -- Lori S, 16:00:00 10/15/10 Fri

My vote before I even saw the choices was Murtagh. I keep hoping that somehow he can come back. He was so fun and so good for Jamie. Although I do miss Ian Sr. dearly, I think he needed to die to help progress the plot with Jenny. I do hope she doesn't turn into a witch to Claire even more though.

[> 2. Murtagh. More Murtagh. -- MiladyM, 16:03:38 10/15/10 Fri

[> 2. Murtagh. I would love for him to be in America, find a woman of his own, live on the Ridge with Jamie and family. -- MonicaW, 17:19:20 10/15/10 Fri

[> Murtagh! -- LizT, 17:57:32 10/15/10 Fri

[> #2, Murtagh. Much as I love Ian Sr., I miss Murtagh's blunt nature. It was very nice to see him back for "The Exile". -- Lady Stormwing, 18:51:37 10/15/10 Fri


[ Edit | View ]








[> Yes, I will have to go with Murtagh too. A couple others run a close 2nd, but I think Jamie's could have used Murtagh a few times in North Carolina. -- Gina-C, 19:43:09 10/15/10 Fri


[ Edit | View ]








[> Lordy, what a tough question! You ROCK with this, Mistresses Pollstketeers. My first reaction was Murtagh. But, really, I would personally love to know what Frank knew and when he knew it. Separate from his 'Frank' personality--he knew more than we'll probably ever know he knew. Don't you think? -- Gayle, 19:48:50 10/15/10 Fri


[ Edit | View ]




[> [> Same reason I said Frank. I want to know what that guy found out, how much he found out, what's all in his boxes and stuff that was in Rev. Wakefield's possession. -- Merrymags, 20:49:49 10/15/10 Fri

[> #3!!! I didn't even have to think twice about this one! Ian Sr. is one of my favourite characters, and I cried like a baby when he died! -- KimL, 06:03:25 10/16/10 Sat

[> I'm finding it interesting how many people want to bring Ian Sr back. I loved him as much as anyone but I have no desire to resurrect him, odd. Just IMO. -- jayn, 07:39:41 10/16/10 Sat


[ Edit | View ]




[> [> Jayn, I've been checking here to see the status of opinions and I, too, am surprised that there are so many Ian Sr. votes. While Ian's death was sad, he also lived a full life whereas other characters - Frank, Murtagh, Dougal - were lost to us too soon as to fully enjoy them. What I wouldn't give to experience more of Frank, of Murtagh in America, of Dougal, that black-hearted bastard, and his conniving!!! -- Merrymags, 09:53:10 10/16/10 Sat


[ Edit | View ]





[> 2. Murtagh! Ian had his time to settle things and his passing was a new beginning for Lallybroch. Murtagh was taken all too sudden. -- Helka, 10:18:56 10/16/10 Sat

[> 9. Brian. I was going to say Murtagh too but then I thought I would love to see Brian back. I would love to find out more about his relationship with Colum and Dougal and to find out all about Ellen too and how they met and where were that when they first ran away together. -- LisaW, 12:22:13 10/16/10 Sat

[> Dougal is the one I would like to resurrect. I see him as a "bad boy" with a good heart. -- Florence, 19:12:47 10/16/10 Sat

[> [> Me too, Florence. He was all about his clan.....not black hearted at all. -- Aislinn, 09:33:28 10/17/10 Sun

[> #3 Ian Sr. I wish him a long, full life with his wife; though I must say I'd love to meet Brian Fraser and see how his relationship with his son was... -- Covadonga, 19:25:50 10/16/10 Sat

[> Murtagh, without a doubt! -- Shel, 14:35:05 10/17/10 Sun

[> Murtagh, definitely. Even though Ian Sr was such a good person. Murtagh spent much of his life protecting Jamie because he loved Ellen. His spirit even returned when Jamie had to shoot Major MacDonald. Such love & loyalty. -- ruthlass, 18:05:12 10/17/10 Sun

[> Murtagh for sure! -- annieo, 12:11:12 10/18/10 Mon

[> Really tough, but I think Ian Sr. wins out over Murtaugh because his death was so stressful. -- Cindy G, 15:09:25 10/18/10 Mon

[> Torn between Murtagh and Ian Sr., but, as they say on Jeopardy!, go with your first impulse and that was Murtagh. -- TerriC, 05:48:45 10/19/10 Tue

[> To actually bring back from the dead - either Dougal or Colum.... But to have more about their original lives in the story Frank or Geneva. -- Aine, 11:06:03 10/19/10 Tue

I wouldn't really want to bring Frank or Geneva back from the dead, because it would just get icky/awkward for those who loved them. On the other hand, more revealing details about parts of their lives that we haven't seen yet would be very interesting. I would rather know more about Frank and his relationship with Brianna in her early life, then bring him back to life during her adult-hood. Same with Geneva, though she died so young it seems like there wouldn't be that much to tell. I think poor William does not need the kind of upheaval that a resurrected mother would bring. Answers perhaps, but the guy needs a break!

Besides, ressurection always has downsides to the person being brought back, and I wouldn't want to do that to Geneva or Frank.

[> Number 2 for me as well. -- LadyDuBois, 05:51:25 10/20/10 Wed

[> Murtagh!!! He was one of my very favorite characters from the first two books, it broke my heart to learn in Voyager that he had passed away at Culloden. I've missed him so often in the other books and found myself constantly imagining what he might have said or done in some of the situations we have seen Jaime and Claire get into, or what he would think of Bree and Roger! I loved Ian Sr. dearly and he will be sorely missed but I feel like we got so much more time with him then with Murtagh. I balled my eyes out when I first visited the Fraser stone at Culloden, I remember a quote from herself about her dear husband being there the first time and being upset thinking about Murtagh and how he felt silly for mourning someone who never truly existed and she told him something like "then cry for the ones who really were/are here" or along those lines. I felt like that, I was crying for Murtagh, but also for all those poor men and the tragedy they suffered. -- Cait, 09:54:42 10/20/10 Wed

[> 9) Mrs Bug - Old Arch can go to the devil but I miss Mrs Bug. Can you imagine the fuss she's be making over young Ian and Rachel? -- kgp, 12:04:32 10/21/10 Thu

[> #2 Murtagh Love and miss his dry humor!!!! -- BrandyC, 14:36:27 10/21/10 Thu

[> I thought I'd be the odd ball one who'd pick Murtagh, but I guess I'm in good company in thinking I'd like to have Murtagh back! He was so good to and for Jamie, besides his parents, I thought Murtagh of all people deserved to see how Jamie turned out. I understand his purpose was to get him through the rough patch of his youth and Culloden, but Murtagh deserved to see Jamie as a grown man. And as much as I love John Grey, he doesn't compare to Murtagh as a benefactor and guardian angel to Jamie, the relationship is so different. Poor Murtagh..... -- Missa, 09:44:26 10/24/10 Sun

[> My answer is 3 purely out of love. But I'd really like to wake Frank up just tell him all about J&C 's life together and how Bree knows the truth, loves her dad and had a great relationship with him..... just to mess with Frank's head a little! -- AmyGirl, 16:34:28 10/27/10 Wed
