Diana Gabaldon gets in on the teasing.
@caitrionambalfe @Heughan Well, sure. He’s got a lot more square footage to cover than Claire does. (Is that a small paint-roller I see?)

With Diana being on set, her presence is still noted on the Outlander Instagram account:
This photo is not of Diana getting ready for her part, but to do press interviews.
This behind the scenes look is of the back of an interior wall with a window that is supposed to look outside. Notice the tree limbs placed at the window and all the lights simulating daytime.
This photo is of a crane that probably holds a camera. From the message, this is a shot inside the castle. We can see some of the production design at work.
We see some empty chairs for the cast. Unfortunately, they are not in them.
In this photo from Caitriona’s Instagram, we see she is working on her first script since returning to Scotland. It is an episode called “The Reckoning” and it is written by Matthew B. Roberts. There is a chapter in Outlander called “Reckonings” and it is chapter 22. Are they both about the same thing?
There were at least a couple of days in Scotland that were press days. It looks like a number of press members were invited out to do interviews and tour the set. The one who shared the most was Jolie Lash of Access Hollywood. They were able to tour Castle Doune.

She has posted a number of additional images. Click here to visit AH site. There is also another article about Castle Doune. Click here to read that.
Diana went into detail about her acting bit on Outlander. To read her whole post about it, click here. It really gives you a good idea what a day for an actor might be like, even one with only a few lines. I believe that her part was to due with The Gathering, so maybe she won’t be part of the episodes they are filming now. Episode 9 seems a bit late to be filming that part. It might have been a jump back to a previous script, but that is just my guess. Here are the photos she shared that went along with her post. I did not include the one that was already shared on Instagram.
