“He’s not afraid of death and he’s seen it a number of times, most particularly I think in Culloden, he saw the corridor and whatever is beyond that and he got pulled back. There’s something about Jamie and death, he understands it, he’s lived around it and he’s very much at ease with it. So, therefore, I think he might even see the signs around him where he’s like, ‘These things keep happening you know it can’t be much longer.’”

But dinna fash, Outlander fans! It sounds like this is all Sam’s speculation, as he jokily added: “This is all literally me, I don’t know myself, but I’m just questioning it as we keep getting these scenes that keep coming up.”
