Outlander fans – the wait is almost over… A bevy of Heughan’s Heughligans and the many other excited and eager fans gathered last week for the Outlander Season 6 Premiere at London’s Royal Festival Hall. Attending were Sam Heughan, Richard Rankin, Sophie Skelton, Caitlin O’Ryan, Jessica Reynolds, Alex Vlahos, Joanne Thomson, Alistair Findlay, Paul Gorman, Mark Lewis Jones, Cesar Domboy, Lauren Lyle, Chris Larkin, Sarah Collier, Hugh Ross and Andrew Gower.
