Hello, my lovely bosom blogging buddies! I realize that I’ve been neglecting you a bit lately, but it’s been a trying week. I’ve got several Jamie Fraser posts simmering at the moment, but to tide us over until they are done, let’s enjoy this delightful picture that I discovered in my inbox this morning. Meghan, you are not alone in your love for Alexander Skarsgard as Jamie Fraser, and many thanks for the photo!

Boo-hoo…I can’t see the photo on my desktop or on my iPhone…is it possible for you to re-post? Pretty please? :-)
Oops! I think I fixed it…let me know if it still won’t work :)
YUM…I can see it now.
thanks for making my day! (girlie squeal, then sigh) YOWZA!
Glad I could help ;)
This is an old photo shopped image, but a GOOD one!
OK- so I’ve been thinking on the dilemma of casting Skarsgard as 22-year old Jamie and I have a solution. Alex Skarsgard comes from an acting dynasty beginning with his father, Stellan Skarsgard and ending (thus far) with his little brother, Bill, who is now 18. Bill is not the spitting image of Alex, but is very close! What if he played a young Jamie and then as Jamie grows older Alex takes over, maybe followed by his father! They’re all big as ox’s and have that nordic look about them.
Here’s a tumblr of Bill’s:

Hi Meghan! I knew he was from a large family but I hadn’t seen his brothers until I saw your post this morning (and then I googled some more pics). Hmm…I’m not completely sure what to think about Bill (as a side note, it cracks me up that his brothers are named Alexander and Gustaf, and he ended up with the name Bill!). He looks like Alex, but there is something…strange?…about him and I can’t put my finger on it! He looks very young , but perhaps in a year or two he will fill out. Honestly, when I first saw the picture, I thought of young Ian. But the idea is intriguing – if he added some muscle (and dyed his hair) he might be able to pull it off! Thanks for sharing your idea, it’s so much fun to think about :)
Dang, That’s just how I picture him! Thanks for the POST!
