Blood of My Blood series 1 screening schedule in full with one week break
The first episode of the Outlander spin off airs tomorrow on Starz.
The wait is almost over until the Outlander prequel Blood of My Blood kicks off and fans cannot contain their excitement.
Friday, August 8 is the day that the highly anticipated show airs on Starz which follows two new love stories, one which starts on the battlefields of the Western Front during World War I and the other in the meadows of Scotland in the early 18th century.
It will unravel the tale of both Jamie and Claire Fraser's parents. Jamie's dad, Brian Fraser, died just mere days after the Highland warrior's second flogging from Randall in Outlander. Although we are yet to get a taste of the spin-off, some critics have shared their glowing reviews ahead of its release.
The rest of the prequel follows the romance between Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) and Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield), who are Claire’s parents.
And now the full screening schedule has been revealed.
The first and second episode will air on Saturday, August 9, at 2am and then 3.20am. Episodes will then be episodic until October 4 when it will be a skip week between episodes 109 and 110.
The final episode will air on October 11. Back in June, it was announced that Outlander: Blood Of My Blood would be filming a second season, before the first season even aired a single episode.
In a statement, Blood of My Blood’s showrunner and executive producer Matthew B. Roberts said: "The passion and talent our cast and crew have poured into Outlander: Blood of my Blood has been extraordinary and we’re thrilled to continue these epic love stories in season two."
"Just as audiences fell in love with Jamie and Claire, we hope viewers will be enamoured by these new couples when they meet them this summer," he continued.
