Annette Badland, the 71-year-old actress known for her role as Mrs Fitz in Outlander, has expressed her delight at being able to portray a Scottish character and honour her mother's heritage.
"My mum came from just outside Edinburgh from Loanhead, so I was terribly pleased that people thought I sounded Scottish, and I hadn't let my mum down- it's nice to have been thought to be a Scot." "I remember meeting Sam, he walked into the room and I kind of gasped. But what really took my breath away was that he was just such a beautiful man, he wasn't arrogant and he didn't come across as though 'Oh you're really going to want to meet me.' He was just a polite and kind boy.
Since then she has starred in many theatrical, television, film and radio programmes, including Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Dr Who, Not Going Out and Wizards Vs. Aliens to name but a few. Explaining the severity of the situation, she continued: "That was the first time I'd experienced that, and my character wasn't particularly pleasant so you can imagine their reactions. I ended up getting death threats, the police were involved and things."
