'Bad weather': Outlander star Sam Heughan stunned by Aussie winter during Bondi Beach stroll
Scottish actor Sam Heughan has been left gobsmacked by Australia's version of winter, filming himself enjoying the sunshine on Sydney's Bondi Beach and joking about the "freezing" conditions. The 45-year-old actor, best known for playing Jamie Fraser in the historical drama Outlander, is currently in Australia for the Supanova Comic Con & Gaming expo, which kicks off in Sydney this weekend. Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Heughan shared a video strolling along Bondi's boardwalk beneath clear skies, the waves rolling behind him. Despite temperatures dipping to a brisk six degrees and peaking at 18, the Scotsman appeared unfazed, especially compared to the icy winters back home. "Winter. Winter in Australia," Heughan said in disbelief, dressed in a button-up shirt and sunglasses. "In Scotland, we have snow in winter. It's dark. Ice. The only ice here is apparently an iceberg, but it's a swimming pool." Back in Balmaclellan, Scotland, Heughan's hometown, temperatures were ironically milder, reaching a top of 22 degrees despite it being summer. As he struggled playfully to button his shirt, the actor quipped, "I'm trying to do up my shirt because it's that cold," before teasing his next stop: Perth. "I've heard it's a very long way away, and I hope it's just as cold and miserable, because I hate winter," he joked. In the caption, Heughan wrote: "Can't wait for more of this 'bad' weather…" Fans and friends quickly flooded the comments with banter, including his Outlander co-star Caitríona Balfe, who joked, "Looks like you're having a s**t time. So sorry buddy." One fan added: "The only ice is in our drinks!! Enjoy Sydney," while another wrote: "Looks terrible, all that beautiful beachfront and the freezing temps requiring an actual shirt!" Heughan is among a star-studded Supanova line-up that includes Evangeline Lilly, Billy Zane, Robert Taylor, and local favourite Lincoln Lewis. The event will hit the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre next weekend.
