I've been reading the Outlander novels and also bought the 2 seasons of the STARZ TV series that they've made and released so far. I've been making my way through watching the first season and all I can say is--move over Mr. Darcy!
Darcy (played by Colin Firth) has been the biggest British sex symbol since the 1995 BBC version of Pride and Prejudice. There are whole fan pages just about "The Look" which is when he looks up at her as she helps his sister to play the piano at Pemberley. Oh yes, Mr. Darcy was the consummate sexy British man.
But I think that he might be thrown over by a sexy Scot by the name of James Fraser. Watching him is a pretty amazing thing. I'm almost through the first season of Outlander and I'm a total Jamie Fraser convert. He is so much sexier because he fights battles which Darcy never did.
