Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip with Sam and Graham takes the Outlander stars all around Scotland exploring everything the country has to offer, with the aim of educating their fans - and themselves - about the rich history of their homeland.

The eight-part series will see the two explore Scottish history and culture, visiting battle sites and other iconic landmarks across the country.

The show comes from company Starz, which is also behind time travelling romance Outlander, based on Diana Gabaldon’s novels.

Heughan, who plays central character Jamie Fraser, and McTavish, who plays co-star Dougal MacKenzie, also wrote a book together called Clanlands: Whisky, Warfare, and a Scottish Adventure Like No Other.

Where was Men in Kilts filmed?

In 2020, Heughan and McTavish were spotted filming the show in Fife. The two were seen doing some fishing on a boat in the East Neuk village of Pittenweem.

Heughan also shared a clip on his Instagram account as he crossed the Queensferry Bridge.

He was also spotted in the Old Town in Edinburgh by fans.
