Outlander: Blood Of My Blood boasts a phenomenal cast and an exciting return to Scotland, but I can't get over the premise.

Oh, baby, Julia Moriston is in deep, deep trouble stuck in Lord Lovat's house in the 18th century in Outlander: Blood of My Blood. Though she's pushed to induce an abortion, Julia devises a different way to try to protect her unborn child. Actress Hermione Corfield walks us through Julia's controversial decision.
