Outlander star Sam Heughan said he was aware of something unusual in Loch Ness as he filmed for his latest travel show Men in Kilts.

In an interview for the eight-episode show that aired on Starz on Valentine's Day he was asked if there was anything coming out of the loch that seemed unusual.

Mr Heughan, who presents the show with fellow Outlander Graham McTavish, who plays Dougal MacKenzie. The men were filming on Loch Ness for the 'Natural Beauty' episode.

It follows the men as they row around Loch Ness, before travelling the breadth of Scotland .

Asked if he saw anything out of the ordinary, or any breaches of the water.

Mr Heughan, who plays Jamie Fraser, told online magazine SYFY Wire: "Oh you see something out of the ordinary," referring to himself and co-star Graham McTavish.

Speaking about the episode from Loch Ness, due to air later this year, Mr Heughan said it was one of his favourites.

He said: "It's actually one of my favourite episodes. That's an interesting one [the Loch Ness episode] because, obviously, Scotland is so beautiful.

"We just really tried to cram that episode in with as much as we could. It's a great episode. It really shows you the scale of Scotland."
