Jamie’s death of course makes the fans react, but the actors also have their interpretation of what appears to be the major upheaval of this start of part 2 of season 7 ofOutlander.
The second episode of part 2 of season 7 ofOutlander has been available on Netflix since Saturday. For this new episode after a new first which saw Claire, Jamie and Ian return to Scotland, the series made its return to the Netflix top, ranking number 9. And for good reason! The twists and turns are numerous and shocking, starting with a real tragedy. After returning to Philadelphia to help Lord John Gray and his nephew, Claire learns that Jamie’s ship has sunk and that there are no survivors. This shocking revelation plunges Claire and Lord John Gray into terrible grief, as they struggle to accept a world without Jamie (find out if the character is really dead according to the books). But Claire refuses to believe it, insisting that she would know deep down if Jamie were dead, because, according to her, his heart would stop along with hers. Lord John Gray must also struggle with grief, but Claire feels she should not share his pain. An injustice for David Berry, who plays the famous Lord John Grey.

“Why should we judge who has more sorrow?”asks the actor in Entertainment Weekly. “Lord John has a deep love for Jamie,” he adds. “His relationship with them [les Fraser] is undeniable. He did everything for them.”recalls David Berry. “To think that he wouldn’t feel deep grief over the loss of Jamie takes away all dimension from the character.”he still believes. According to him, the series explores “how and why Lord John feels this sorrow and to what extent he welcomes this sorrow” but also “how he is different from Claire, while at the same time being similar because they both share a deep love for this man”.
