Outlander Conference Glasgow

This summer, Glasgow University will host the 'first major international academic conference of its kind' - the OUTLANDER CONFERENCE GLASGOW, based on Diana Gabaldon's OUTLANDER series. The uni created a promotional trailer of warriors battling it out in the heart of the Glasgow campus. Considering I used to walk through here all the time, it's hilarious to think of them making this. Enjoy watching the trailer - click the image!
