Brooke Shields has revealed that she's joined the growing list of Outlander celebrity superfans after binge-watching all five seasons due to being inspired while filming her latest hit movie in Scotland.

The Hollywood star stated that she started watching the show while filming her festive Netflix hit 'A Castle for Christmas', adding that she's now a "complete addict".

Speaking with Town & Country magazine, the 56-year-old actress, exclaimed that she now can't wait for season six, she said: "I didn't watch Outlander until I got to Scotland, and in two and a half months I watched five seasons—now I can't wait for the next one.

"There are things it gets into that are so unbelievable, and scenes that are so heart-rending; I became a complete addict.

"A lot of our crew also works on Outlander, so I was pumping them all for information or trying to get them to bring Tobias Menzies to come visit our set."


She also delighted lead actor Sam Heughan, who plays Jamie Fraser on the hit show, by revealing she's a big fan of his Scotch whisky and that it is one of her "holiday favourites".

She gushed: "This whisky wasn't in existence when I was in Scotland—the name is a word that refers to someone not from Scotland—but when Outlander star Sam Heughan released it, I couldn't wait to try it, and it's really smooth and wonderful and I love the fact that it's his.

"It's a total fan move on my part."
