It's a series. It is based on a series of "kilt and bodice ripping" books, very popular in the US.

I think it involves Claire touching a stone in a stone circle and getting transported back to the height of the Jacobite rising in 1740's where she meets Jamie. Ocht aye the noo!
The series uses a fake stone circle - though as far as I know the series was filmed extensively on location in Scotland.
It is plotted kind of along the lines of that series where Nicholas Lyndhurst from "Only Fools And Horses" and "Butterflies" kept getting transported back to WWII in London... it was called "Goodnight Sweetheart".

It'll be like that but with kilts and bodices and swords and stuff. Hard to contain myself. One reviewer describes the first person talk over/ narration by the Claire character as "boner kill". I think this series will require a lot of popcorn and beer to get through.
