Entertainment Weekly got the exclusiver first look at Diana Gabaldon’s cameo in the fourth episode of Outlander, “The Gathering.” Diana will be playing Iona MacTavish. If you remember, she visited the set in February and this was when she filmed the cameo.
“Matt Roberts, the scriptwriter for this particular episode (and a lovely man he is, too, Guy Fawkes beard notwithstanding), would write a tiny scenelet for me,” Gabaldon explained. “Just a couple of lines of dialogue. They could then film that pretty quickly on its own, and I’d then be released… The lady in question is at the Gathering, and the scenelet in question takes place in one of the galleries over the Great Hall.”
Episode 4 is coming! #DianaInDrag #blinkandyoullmissme #DontBlink
