After a two-year absence away from the small screen "Outlander" has finally returned to Starz. The time travel-focused sci-fi romance series has arguably become one of the network's most popular series, even as it has worked its way to its 6th season on the air. Based on the novels by Diana Gabaldon, the series has thus far done an excellent job of adapting many of the most beloved characters that readers fell in love with in the books.

One notable recent addition to the "Outlander" ensemble who got his start in the "Outlander" books is Allan Christie. A member of the newly introduced Christie family, Allan is shown to be incredibly protective of his younger sister on the series. Like many members of the family, Allan has proven to be an interesting addition to the "Outlander" dynamic, but who exactly plays this character?
