Flight of the Heron read-along: Part V chapters 3-4
But till my last moments my words are the same: there'll never be peace until Jamie comes hame...
The penultimate week of the read-along, and in these chapters we are still very Jacobite.
Next week we will, sadly, read Part V Chapter 5 and the Epilogue.

About 2/3 of the way down the page. It's no great shakes tbh - like early Doctor Who quality - but they filmed it on the actual locations, which is nice. Some nice Ewen/Keith moments too.
The later one, from 1976, seems to have been excised from this world. I don't remember much about it, though I didn't think it was all that bad at the time. Another adaptation is long overdue imo, but the fandom would then be overwhelmed with a/b/o and coffee-shop AUs and Outlander crossovers, and if that's elitist, well, call me a Bourbon king...

I would desperately like to see a well-done adaptation, but I do fear the associated challenges with a large fandom. On the one hand, fan art. On the other hand, Discourse.
Speaking of Outlander, I do wonder if anyone else here has ever wondered how much Flight of the Heron influenced it — I'm not overly familiar with the series but I have noticed a few elements that seem very similar to aspects of FotH.
