Andrew Gower, who plays Prince Charles in “Outlander” Season 2, has teased some details about the upcoming finale episode. The actor also talked about the passionate fan base of the TV series and about researching for the role.

[Spoiler alert]

“I am going to give you very short, mysterious clues,” Gower told Yahoo. “Wax, an unfinished battle, and more God,” the actor teased. He added that it was going to be a “great, great episode” and urged viewers not to miss it.

Stephen Walters (Angus Mhor) had previously told Gower about the keen interest in the TV series by the fans. The actor said that he has been able to experience that “firsthand now.” The actor said that he has had “positive interactions” with the fans on Twitter, and that it feels “validating.”

Gower had to do “a hell of a lot” of research to play Prince Charles on the show. The Frank McLynn biography became his “bible” for the research. He, however, pointed out that despite all the research it was important to focus on the script of “Outlander” Season 2 and create his own version of the character.

Talking about his character, Gower said that Prince Charles was “totally a daddy’s boy.” He said that the character has an “identity crises,” after growing up in Italy. He has this inner struggle about who he is, where he belongs and who he belongs with. The actor said that his character means well, but it doesn’t always work out for him.

Gower’s favourite scene from “Outlander” Season 2 is the one in which he climbs out of a window, after being bitten by a monkey. This scene was a direct adaptation from the books written by Diana Gabaldon, on which the TV series is based. The actor also revealed that he kept adding a few more “Mark me’s” to the script, because he felt that this was a way for Prince Charles to demand attention. The catch phrase has apparently become a drinking game, and Gower joked that he is worried about the fans who have to drink every time they hear that phrase.
