'High Life' Alan comes down to earth in Aviemore
He's a household name on both sides of the Atlantic for his brilliant performances on screen and stage, but he quietly boarded a train today in Aviemore with his film crew as he worked on his new project.
Alan Cumming, star of BBC Scotland's hilarious '90s hit"The High Life" set in the chaotic cabin of Air Scotia, is going to star in a Channel 4 show.
He's making a four-part series celebrating a dream trip on the famous Royal Scotsman, indeed "one of the world's greatest rail trips".
It's a grand tour of his homeland, giving him a chance to celebrate its history, landscape and culture.
It was just the Strathy's good fortune today to catch him boarding in Aviemore.
Although he had no time to chat as he happily posed for photographer David Macleod, he has never made any secret of the fact that he is a Royal Scotsman super fan.
He was clearly looking forward to adding to his list of trips on the beautiful steam train – and sharing the results with his public via Channel 4 in due course.
