Lorraine Kelly praised Sam Heughan for being an ambassador for Scotland through all of his projects.
The Dumfries-born actor is best known for his role as Jamie Fraser in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, but has authored books and created a documentary series about his love for his homeland too.
The 42-year-old actor joined forces with fellow Scot and Outlander co-star Graham McTavish for their Starz series Men In Kilts, where they travel throughout Scotland and explore it's history and culture.
