Despite an early success at Prestonpans, it becomes clear to Claire and Jamie that they cannot change the tide of the war, and instead they do their best to secure the safety of the Lallybroch men and Jamie's family, before sending Claire back through the stones, and before Jamie faces certain death at the looming Battle of Culloden.

Upon concluding her story, Claire is distressed by Brianna's enraged refusal to believe her. With help from Roger, Claire tracks down Gillian Edgars, whom she has identified as her old friend Geillis, before the latter traveled back in time.

Claire leads Roger and Brianna to Craigh na Dun, potentially to stop Gillian from going back, but they fail. Still, the event serves its purpose in convincing Brianna that her mother is telling the truth, and erasing any lingering doubts Roger may have had — they could both hear the stones, too. As they recover from this harrowing experience, Roger brings Claire a life-changing bit of evidence — one that suggests that Jamie didn't die at the Battle of Culloden, as she had believed for the past twenty years.

By any standard, Claire is a woman ahead of her own time in , and an outright anomaly in the 18th century. Her unusual upbringing, together with her six years as an army combat nurse, shaped Claire into a thoroughly independent woman undaunted by rough living conditions and physical danger.

She is an eminently sensible person, though her considerable personal freedom from a young age shows through in her stubborn aversion to taking orders without questioning them.

When it comes to practicing medicine, Claire takes charge and keeps a cool head in dire situations. In the 20th century, she stands out as a woman in medical school, and in the 18th she draws the ire of fellow surgeons, an exclusively male profession at the time. Claire's defining physical features include her extremely curly hair and golden-colored eyes.

Her hair, when unfettered by pins or ribbons, is wildly large and curly, and frequently breaks free of its bonds when she is agitated or engaged in physical activity. At the beginning of the series, she observes that her hair is light brown, though later in life it takes on lighter streaks of gold and silver. By her early sixties, Claire has a broad streak of white hair at her temple.

Her eyes are variously described as amber, golden, golden-brown, smoky topaz, the color of well-aged sherry or whisky, and compared to those of a hawk or leopard. Claire's Uncle Lamb told her that her mother's eyes had been the same color. She has an average modern height at five feet, six inches, though she is taller than most women and not a few men of the 18th century. Frank first met Claire Beauchamp when he came to consult her uncle, Quentin Beauchamp , about a point of French philosophy as it related to Egyptian religious practice.

After a period of time, they were married, and spent a brief two-day honeymoon in the Scottish Highlands, followed by a year together before the outbreak of World War II. Claire and Frank were separated for most of the war. Once the war was over, Claire and Frank reunited in in Cross Stitch [20] and decided to have a second honeymoon in the Scottish Highlands to reestablish their marriage. They stayed in a town called Inverness in the north of Scotland, which was situated near an ancient stone circle.

Claire went missing at that stone circle. They were reunited when she returned again in However, Claire had returned pregnant with another man 's child and admitted to having married and fallen in love with her second husband. Frank said he did not believe Claire's story, choosing instead to believe that she was delusional and losing her grip on reality. Feeling some sense of responsibility for the welfare of Claire and her child, Frank insisted on staying by Claire as her husband.

He asked that while he lived, Claire would never tell Brianna the truth of her paternity. Their relationship over twenty years remained rocky, and Claire suspected that Frank was involved in several affairs throughout the marriage, though he was discreet. After an intense argument that started with Frank's announcement that he was leaving Claire and taking Brianna with him, Frank stormed out and drove away in the middle of the night.

While Claire was at the hospital checking on a patient, she received word that Frank had been in a fatal car accident. Claire met Jamie shortly after she accidentally traveled through time from to She reset his dislocated shoulder and bandaged wounds that he sustained during a skirmish with English soldiers over the course of one night, during which they rode the same horse on the way to Castle Leoch.

While staying at the castle, Claire gradually learned more about Jamie's background and circumstances, namely that he had a price on his head for a crime he didn't commit and couldn't return to his family's home. Just a few months after meeting, several weeks of which were spent on the road collecting rents with the MacKenzies, Claire was left with no better option for her survival than to marry a Scot in order to evade the grasp of Captain Randall.

She married Jamie unwillingly, though over the course of their wedding night it became apparent that there was certainly more to the attraction that had been building between them than simple lust or loneliness. She took one opportunity to try to escape and return to her own time, but was foiled when she was picked up by English redcoats and brought to Captain Randall.

Jamie rescued her, and they returned to Castle Leoch. They spent several months as a married couple in the castle until Claire was imprisoned in the local village as a suspected witch. Jamie rescued her yet again, and she told him the truth about where, and when, she came from. He believed her, much to her surprise, though he admitted he didn't understand it yet. Juliette Wortmann.

From the Australian Government in Canberra was advertising throughout Australia to get girls to come as typists. Now it was very interesting why. When Canberra started in , most people came with very young children. By they were not old enough to have learnt to become typists, and two thirds of the typists in Canberra were men.

In these men were getting out of those jobs to join either the air force or the army. So of course they needed girls in Canberra as typists. Claire Forlani is an English actress.
