It's not easy to kill someone. It isn't like the movies. It's not neat and tidy and people often don't die and they fight back. Watching Claire in the Films struggle to hit the right spot was horrid. I wonder if her years of nursing helped with the anatomy of the deserter and knowing where to stick the knife. Her years of seeing soldiers die may have helped with the shock of death. I know Dougal's men taught her what to do, but reality is very different than practice. -- Ladies of Lallybroch Social Board

In reply to: Kathy in PA 's message, "This was so awful and a scene that they absolutely captured on camera. Catriona’s portrayal made it even worse, if possible. You have an Lallyfinger Betsy! It’s picking out well known and well loved passages." on Tue, March 01 2022, 5:33:02
