What is Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip with Sam and Graham about?
Men in Kilts is created by and stars Outlander’s Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish.
The eight-part series will see the pair travel their home country of Scotland, exploring Scottish history and culture.
Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip with Sam and Graham will also see Sam and Graham learning from the locals and searching the incredible landscape.
For example, they will visit the mountains of Glencoe, Inverness and the famous Culloden battlefield.
They will also travel by sea, visit castles and wear kilts in the process.
The show originally started out life as a podcast series before being turned into a TV series.
The synopsis for the series reads: “Created by the two Scotsmen, Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip With Sam and Graham promises a celebration of Scottish history and culture as Heughan and McTavish take viewers along on their adventures, discovering the rich, complex heritage of their native country, meeting various local artisans and experts, and experiencing genuine moments of awe and fascination as the duo share their travels with the audience rather than simply guiding them.”
Announcing the series commission, Starz original programming president Christina Davis said: “The genuine curiosity and passion that Sam and Graham have for the landscapes they visit and the stories they uncover while travelling through the heart of Scotland makes Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip With Sam and Graham a truly enjoyable journey of discovery for the audience.
“The series gives context and texture to Highland life and history, woven together, much like the tartan for which Scotland is so famous, and we look forward to taking this road trip with these two great friends.”
