On this episode of Scran, host Rosalind Erskine is joined by a very special guest: Outlander star Sam Heughan.

Sam is a Scottish actor who is best known for playing warrior Jamie Fraser in Outlander, the historical drama TV show based on the novel series of the same name. Set in Scotland in 1793 at the time of the Jacobites uprising, it has gained fans from all over the world.

In 2019 Sam realised his dream of releasing his own whisky, The Sassenach. Sam talks about what inspired him, why he chose a blend over a single malt and when fans in the UK can buy a bottle.

Sam also discusses his drams of choice, as well as some favourite foods... and some not-so-favourite foodie moments.
