My wife is a huge fan of the books and has been waiting patiently for the show to air in the UK. I’ve just discovered it will only be shown on Amazon Prime instant video in the UK, which is hugely disappointing. I now have to consider whether to buy a new (smart) TV, subscribe to Amazon for £79 per annum or wait patiently again for the DVD release.

I can’t help feeling this is likely to impact the overall viewing figures here in the UK.

Diana, I was turned on to your outlander series very recently. Have read all 8 books in 4 months.
Prolific, emotional, funny and so many other words to use but in the interest of time I’ll just say that I laughed, cried have completely fallen in love with the characters. My husband who was killed in a tragic accident speaks the me through Jamie. As he was scotch/Irish as am I, the wedding vows of Jamie & Claire brought back lovely memories in that we also included”bone of my bone…”.
I anxiously await book 9 with the rest of your adoring fans. I am also a retired nurse & most enjoyed how Claire uses ancient herbal remedies with her 20th century skills. I admire her strength of character & resolve through
Such hard times. Takes a very special person to survive with such odds.
Looking forward to knowing how Bree/Roger, Ian et al & of course William all complete their final journeys.
Thank you again for this wonderful journey you have given us.

Yep. Will be, or I think maybe already available. Telecom, now Spark, have the rights on their Lightbox package. $15 pm. I don’t think you have to be a Spark customer either. I’m just in the process of trying signing up for it myself, but I’m going to have to call in the family troops to sort me out, oh dear, lol. Facebook page Spark Lightbox! Have info.. And Google Spark lightbox Outlander.

Best books I have ever read, fell in love with Jamie immediately! I come from a Scottish background, and even the book “sounded right”. At my first read I said this would make a wonderful film or series! And who I would cast for Jamie! And now at last we will see a Jamie Fraser in the flesh!

I thing with the books that I found difficult was my inability to find a place where I could actually put the thing down, either to eat or to sleep! Hence some very bleary eyed mornings at work!

I went to a Scotland on a Jamie Hunt. I found fantastic postcards, shaped like bagpipes, or a tammy, or a kilt, and then boots. I sent them gradually home, saying, look he can’t be far away, I’m hot on his trail.., .. Oops getting closer.. Etc , the girls at work loved them, as I had introduced them to the books as well, and were also avid fans!

Unfortunately, I never found him, but returning to the books time and time again has been as pleasurable as the first reads.

Great stuff Diana, from way down here in Kiwiland!

Great Series !!!!!!!!
Do you know when it will be available. On DVD? I could watch this over and over again. Keep up the good work.
I also have the books and started reading them. I sure would love the DVD.

Thank you so much

Just watched the last episode of season one tonight on Foxtel’s Soho channel in Australia. I am hooked! How can we possibly wait until April 2015 for the next episode? Is there any chance it will be released on dvd anywhere in the world before then?

Hi Diana,

Do you know if and when the Outlander series will be released on DVD? I can’t afford to add Star to my satellite package, but would certainly find a way to purchase a DVD. Last week I thought I’d found a way to watch the series on my laptop. Downloaded Microsoft Silverlight and was able to watch the first episode. I was so overjoyed, then the big letdown, when I found out I couldn’t watch the rest of the episodes. I was really down in the dumps.
Diana, will you please send me an email letting me know when I can start looking for the Outlander DVD. Love, love, love your books.

I read the first Outlander book many years ago and for some strange reason could not get it out of my head. Then fate led me to the second book and the rest is history. Now I have all the books. And to see this story made into a series with such great actors playing the characters is fantastic. I have already purchased Season one and will purchase each season as they come out. Thank you Diana for having such an amazing imagination to create such a wonderful story.

Being an Outlander lover, I was worried the show would not be done properly. I was wrong. This is absolutely the best series I’ve ever seen. The actors are all perfect for the book characters. Love all the interviews. Thank you Diana for your wonderful imagination!

Finally my friends are buying the books and watching the show. They now understand how great the books are.

Congratulations and thank you. So far the TV adaptation of the book is SO well done. I am thrilled to be seeing the words I read come to life. The casting for Claire and Jaime are perfect. I, like most, were so worried about who would be cast and if they would be able to bring this couple to life and they have done such a phenomenal job. Thank you to them as well. Waiting for show on Saturday is almost unbearable and when the episodes end I am so disappointed. It has led me to read the series again. Just awesome.
