Happy Mothers’ Day to all!!
The 2018 BAFTA TV Awards were today at the Royal Festival Hall in London, and Sam and Caitriona were on hand to walk the red carpet and present an award for the Specialist Factual Award (which seems to be documentary).
Earlier today we heard from Sam’s doppelgänger, Bad Boy Cree, who apparently got this mask from one Samantha Kraupner at Sasnak City last month…
Looking forward to the BAFTAS tonight. Are you going @SamHeughan ? pic.twitter.com/tSxNrsxHOS

It looks like they were dates in fact.
Here’s a video of Sam arriving with Steven Cree, and greeting a newly arrived Caitriona and her fiancé Tony.

Here’s that must see moment ?…

Pictured here with Scottish actor Martin Compston and matching shoes.
Will these guys be back at work tomorrow?? Knowing them, they just might be.
For a Sam and Cait red carpet interview GO HERE.
Sam looks a bit like Alexander Skarsgard in this photo. Normally I wouldn’t say that but…
I’ll probably get attacked for this comment, but, really, someone should tell Sam to stop ad-libbing at these kinds of award ceremonies. He’s such a good, kind, generous person, and his doing this makes him appear to be trying too hard to be entertaining. I think he really doesn’t need to do that.
Those WERE scripted remarks.
I think they both did fine. If the folks at The BAFTAS want remarks scripted, they should provide them. It looked like they wanted it to be brief, and they were brief.
I’m sure those remarks were scripted. Sam did fine, but whoever wrote them could have been a bit more clever. I can imagine what Sam thought when he saw what they asked him to say.
Nice to see Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe in a festive setting. They look relaxed and happy. Beautiful couple. And, 3 more seasons, 4, 5 and 6 to look forward to as well. Life is grand!
Courtney, thanks so much for all your BTS posts. Brilliant to see Sam and Caitriona getting some exposure here in England at BAFTA. (As you know only the first series has been shown on terrestrial TV here. UK TV audiences are lagging behind what we,amazon prime folk, already know, that the show is FANTASTIC! Really lovely to have an opportunity to see interaction between Sam and Tony too. All good stuff. Waiting for Series 4 is going to be hard.
You’re welcome Mandy! It is nice for them! Plus the BAFTA’s are such a nice change from the Hollywood awards (in my opinion). Everyone is less full of themselves! It was a pleasure to cover xo
You are absolutely right Courtney. The Hollywood actors have a big ego. This is probably why more English, Scots, Australian actors are hired instead of all the pompous American actors.
I think filming in the UK has a lot to do with that too Astrid!
As a US citizen, I will not watch the Hollywood crap that they produce, nor their awards ceremonies. The exception: Belfast.The BRITs do it with so much class and integrity.
It was great to see Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe together on a such a beautiful and eventful occasion! All smiles and genuine – that’s their secret – being genuine. Caitriona was absolutely stunning and Sam heart pounding handsome (as usual)! Good to see them enjoying the event. Can hardly wait till Season 4 starts in November. Thank you Sam and Caitriona for giving us Jamie and Claire and Outlander.
Cait’s hair and makeup looked avante garde like…her dress was for me another bust. I saw a mishmash of feathers and puke with a piece of old velvet ribbon tied on the top. Yes she can wear anything and look fabulous…..but that does not mean you wear just anything. Sam as always looked picture perfect. Classy stylish and radiated sex appeal. Good thing my opinions dont matter. but we do have a right to them.
At first look I thought her dress reminded me of a carpet torn up. After seeing it from head to toe it does really work. I still don’t like the moldy looking maroonish pieces, but her figure even makes those look stunning. The cut is fabulous on her.
[…] the BAFTA’s (full coverage here), in an interview with Digital Spy, Caitriona said there would be a long, 7 month hiatus between […]
