The Heartfelt Tribute

In an emotional address, Sam Heughan expressed his gratitude and admiration for his fellow cast members. "It's really hard for me," he admitted. "We had a read-through where all the cast sits around a table and we read the episode so that everyone can hear it, but they made it a very special occasion." Sam described the setting—a magnificent castle set, complete with a bagpipe player performing the series' iconic theme, "The Skye Boat Song." The poignant atmosphere moved him to tears, highlighting the deep connections formed over the years.

Caitriona also reciprocated this sentiment, sharing how grateful she is for their unique friendship.
