Martin Compston reveled that he was left to wander Glasgow's street in the dark after a mistake at a hotel in the city he had booked into for the night.
The Line of Duty star says that he was "humbled" after arriving and finding out he had no bed for the night because his room had been overbooked.
Martin, 38, had not long got off a late night flight and says that he was shattered but sadly staff had to break the news to him that there was nowhere for him to put his head down.
He claims despite this, staff were happy to see him there, with one even asking for a selfie, reports Glasgow Live.
Speaking on his Restless Natives podcast, he said: "I got there about one in the morning and by this time I was just desperate for my bed because I had work in the morning.
"I got to the reception and the lassie went 'oh we didn't know what time you were coming at, but we've all been waiting on you, would you mind getting a picture because people have hung about to see you?'.
"I was like 'yeah of course,' so we got two or three pictures done and then she said 'oh, just to let you know, we don't have a room for you, we have overbooked.'
"I went 'so you didn't tell me that before you got your pictures?'.
"I said 'so where am I going to go?' and she said 'I don't know, everywhere's overbooked.'"
Martin ended up having to get a taxi to home to Greenock and added: "In some ways I respected the cheek of asking me for the pictures before telling me I didn't have a room.
"I was very humbled that night."
