She couldn't contain her excitement!

Holly Willoughby was left blushing on Tuesday’s This Morning after meeting Outlander hunk Sam Heughan.

Major Outlander fan Holly and co-host Phillip Schofield sat down to chat with the actor to talk about the upcoming series of the time-travel series.

As Phil sat back and let Holly have her moment, the presenter delved right in to ask the Scottish star, who plays Jamie Fraser in the series, all the important questions.

Introducing Sam to the show, Holly told viewers: “[He’s here to tell us] about all the saucy scenes and whipping his kilt off.”

“I wasn’t going to mention that at all but it’s next,” she quickly added, as Sam said: “Great.”

“It’s so lovely to finally meet you!” Holly gushed.

Phil then sat back with his arms crossed leaving Holly to chat to Sam, before Phil turned the conversation to whiskey.

“You are a whiskey man,” Phil said. “A serious whiskey man!”

Sam replied: “I thought I could smell something. I thought it was me!”

“It’s Holly’s breath,” Phil joked. “She had to have one to calm her down before you came on.”

The trio then enjoyed a glass of whiskey before continuing the interview.

Sam said: “Cheers everyone, it’s 11 o’clock,” to which Holly replied: “Why not!”
