Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) have waited 20 years to be reunited (feels like we’ve waited the same time, to be honest) and the reunion finally happened at the end of episode 5 of Outlander.

Well… the pair locked eyes and Jamie fainted. Now we have another TWO weeks until we see the two lovers come together (the episode airs Monday October 23), but thankfully, the lovely people at Outlander have given us a teaser to hold us over.

The teaser shows the loved up couple embracing each other in bed.

The sheet is covering Claire, but thankfully Jamie’s abs have been left on full display.

The picture isn’t the only great news; the next episode titled “A. Malcolm.” will actually run for 74 minutes!

A video was also released alongside the picture and it shows Jamie and Claire reuniting and basically undressing each other after so many years of not being able to. You can watch the teaser below (story continues after video).

The long-awaited reunion will also feature in an extended episode, meaning that we can fully appreciate these lovers getting back together.

It’s been a long 20 years for Jamie and Claire, who have been stuck in different centuries.

Earlier this year, Sam Heughan reassured fans that the time the couple spend apart would be worth it.

We are so glad that Jamie and Claire are going to be together again!

“But don’t worry, I think it’s going to be worth the wait for fans,” Scottish star Sam, 37, told TV WEEK during an exclusive interview.

“Jamie and Claire have gone on this journey for 20 years – he goes through all the stages of grief and anger.

“When he finally accepts the fact she’s gone, she comes back into his life again. So that print shop scene is going to be very special…”

Irish actress Caitriona broke into a huge grin when she spoke with us about that pivotal moment.

“In her [Claire’s] ideal world, she would walk into the print shop, and he [Jamie] would sweep her up in his arms. And that would be that,” she said. “But it ends up going very differently.”

We can’t wait to see it all unfold!
