Thanks to the tip of a visitor I replaced the scan of a promotional picture from the Australian ‘The Abduction Club‘ DVD with a better quality picture. This is one of my favourite pictures from my favourite Sophia movie.

Also, some of the episodes of ‘Spooks (MI-5)‘ Season 9 are now listed on The Internet Movie Database. Thus we now know the full name of Sophia’s character: Beth Bailey.

I replaced the ‘Outlander‘ screencaptures in the gallery with Blu-ray quality ones. This marks a first on this site! I’m sure you’ll enjoy the better pictures of Sophia as Viking warrior princess Freya!

While I was at it I also replaced the captures of a few deleted scenes from the French DVD with captures of all deleted scenes – as featured on most other DVDs. Also the Making Of captures are now available in DVD quality. And I added a few stills that were still missing.

Sophia has sent a Christmas message with a picture to the site:

To my lovely fans at sophiamyles.org,

Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and I hope that 2010 brings us more joy than we can possibly imagine.

Love, peace, rock and roll.

Awww, thank you! And we wish you the same! Sophia also sent some great exclusive pictures from the set of ‘Outlander‘. Thank you so much! It’s funny to think that these were taken over 3 years ago.

The UK ‘Outlander‘ DVD will soon be released: August 31. In promotion of this a few small internet articles about Sophia Myles have surfaced. Not sure if the quotes in it are part of a full-length interview, which is yet to appear – let’s hope so – but I’ve added them already to the press archive:

• I’m not a posh bird, The Press Association, August 13
• Sophia needs some work, TeleText / Showbiz Spy, August 16

Finally, we know when ‘Outlander‘ will be released on DVD in the UK: September 7, 2009. Be sure to pre-order your item today!

Today ‘Outlander‘ is released on DVD in the US! Be sure to order if you haven’t yet to see Sophia Myles in action as Viking warrior princess Freya & the – to be expected – fabulous DVD extras! The DVD should also be availble for rent at Blockbuster.

According to the Outlander fansite it is as of yet unclear when the movie will be released on BluRay in the US. However, it’s stil scheduled to be released on DVD & BluRay May 26th in Canada. A free DVD can be won on a contest over at EyeWeekly.com

Thanks Chris for sending me this information. ‘Hallam Foe‘ is making its premiere on Australian TV on the 6th of May on the Showtime Channel. It will be repeated on the 7th, 18th and 30th May.

This is good news as ‘Hallam Foe‘ was not picked up by any DVD stores that Chris has been into in Tasmania. So if you live in Australia and haven’t seen this lovely film – featuring an award winning performance by Sophia Myles no less – be sure to tune in. Read more about ‘Hallam Foe‘.

Following ‘Outlander‘ on Twitter certainly brings us fabulous information. There’s another opportunity to win a VIP screening here and it leads us to an interesting and totally new over 16 minute long Making Of. The Outlander fansite has word that it will eventually turn up on the Region 2 DVD but isn’t on the recently released French DVD/Blu Ray or the upcoming Region 1 DVD/Blu Ray. It also has some nice moments of Sophia Myles so be sure to watch!

Someone uploaded a hiliarious imitation of the UK Trailer to YouTube. It’s a shot by shot re-make with action figures such as He-Man, Thundercats, Star Wars and more. Definitely a must see!

Outtakes from reviews (added to the Outlander page):

But it’s Sophia Myles who steals the show, her performance as beautiful but ballsy Viking girl Freya giving the boys a run for their money in the action stakes.

John Hurt is excellent as the watchfully wise king, as are Sophia Myles as his feisty daughter and the other-worldly James Caviezel.

Finally! ‘Outlander‘ is released in cinemas throughout Sophia’s homecountry this coming Friday, April 24!

SciFi.co.uk has a competition to win a VIP private ‘Outlander’ screening for you & your mates. To participate you have to be a UK resident, register at their website and give the correct answer to this question “What do you call a monster with one eye?” before the end of April 25. Good luck!

Also on SciFi.co.uk you can shorten the wait till Friday by watching their exclusive ‘Outlander‘ clip of the movie’s beginning.

I’ve come across some new reviews. Apparently Jonathan Ross spoke favourably about the movie in his show and The Mirror singled out Sophia Myles for praise in their short and lukewarm review: “but it moves at a fair old pace and features a great performance by Sophia Myles as a Viking princess.”

As always I’m extremely grateful for anything you UK fans might come across. Thanks for keeping your eyes open!

Oh, and Sophia’s ‘Doctor Who‘ episode “Girl in the Fireplace” re-airs tonight on BBC3 at 7pm.

As I posted earlier my French ‘Outlander‘ DVD arrived recently and today I made screencaptures of Sophia Myles as Freya in the movie as well as in the extras. Enjoy!

If you haven’t seen the film yet the screencaptures do contain some spoilers.
