Outlander fans were delighted at the news that filming for the seventh season has officially started.
Sam Heughan, who plays Highland warrior Jamie Fraser, and Caitriona Balfe, who plays his on-screen wife Claire Fraser in the historical fantasy series were spotted back on set in Fife.
The 41-year-old donned his iconic red wig as production got underway in Scotland.
The historical fantasy series, based on Diana Gabaldon's books, has become a firm favourite of viewers both sides of the Atlantic.
Due to Covid-19, Outlander viewers had an almost two-year wait, dubbed 'Droughtlander', between the explosive season five finale and when season six aired.
One lucky Outlander fan who lives in Burntisland shared images of the cast and crew filming scenes in the harbour close to her home.
Jackie Lewis' home overlooks Burntisland Harbour in Fife and she was delighted to spot the sailing boat Phoenix being used as part of scenes while out on her daily walk.
"I was also lucky to catch a glimpse of outlander stars Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe," explained the calibration technician. "Both were lovely, Sam even took the time to speak to fans and sign autographs."
According to Jackie, the local residents are happy to see Burntisland chosen as a location for the show.
She added: "It is very exciting for filming to take place in our beautiful historic town, the whole town has been buzzing with the news filming was about to begin, possibly more so that Sam was in town, he is very handsome."
Outlander is currently airing its sixth season every Sunday.
Hopefully there's a much quicker turnaround between this season and next!
