SAM HEUGHAN DREAMS OF JAMES BOND ROLE

THE Outlander star has been speculated as a potential successor to Daniel Craig – who is set to make his final appearance as the iconic spy in the delayed 25th Bond movie No Time To Die – as 007 and revealed that he would jump at the opportunity if it comes along.

Sam said: “I don't think any actor would ever say no. If I was asked to audition for it, I would be delighted.”

The 40-year-old actor previously tried out for the role of Bond before Craig was cast and recalled the “surreal” experience of seeing a prop from The Man with the Golden Gun as he met with franchise boss Barbara Broccoli.

Sam has revealed that he is keen to be the first Scotsman to play 007 since the late Sir Sean Connery. | Bang Showbiz

GWYNETH PALTROW GAINED 6KGS OFF WINE AND CHEESE

GWYNETH Paltrow says “wine, pasta, biscuits and cheese” got her through lockdown. The Mortdecai star put on 6kg during quarantine and she admits she “didn’t want to do anything” about her increased figure on the scales as she turned to comfort food to cope.

“I was absolutely no holds barred, she said. “I gained 14 pounds and my gut was a mess. But I just didn’t want to do anything about it, really. I felt like my wine and my pasta and biscuits and crackers and cheese were getting me through.”

However, the 48-year-old actress has now lost 5kg through an intuitive fasting programme | Bang Showbiz
