Roger Wakefield
Book fans also waited incredibly patiently for the name (and the face) of the man playing Roger Wakefield, who will most likely appear alongside Brianna. Richard Rankin will take on the role of adult Roger, who we've already met as a small child.
Familiar Faces
Not everyone this season is new. Murtagh (Duncan Lacroix) is still Jamie's right hand man, and we haven't seen the last of Dougal (Graham McTavish), Colum (Gary Lewis), Angus (Stephen Walters), or Rupert (Grant O'Rourke) either.
You Want More Frank, You Got More Frank
Oh, you didn't want more Frank? Well too bad! Claire's 1940's husband is coming back, and his role will be expanded past what it is in the book. Frank will also be brought up quite a bit more, as Claire is concerned about preserving the future existence of her once and future husband. "I love having Tobias on the show," Moore explained. "I love having the character of Frank. I think having her keep touch with the 20th Century life she had was really important to the show." Whatever you say Ron. You're the boss.
