Popular Scottish actor Martin Compston appeared on Talksport this morning alongside hosts Laura Woods, Ally McCoist and Jamie O'Hara to preview his latest show on ITV.
The 37-year-old described Our House as a relationship drama that 'morphs itself into a thriller', 'with a lot of cliffhangers', as he teased what viewers can expect this evening.
The Line of Duty star, who plays Bram Lawson in the new ITV drama was feeling a bit worse for wear as he celebrated his football team's [Celtic] victory over Livingston on Sunday.
Martin was pictured celebrating Celtic's 3-1 win over Livingston yesterday as he posed with fans in the bumper crowd at the Tony Macaroni Arena in West Lothian.
Speaking on Talksport this morning, Martin said: "Yeah, I'm feeling a bit more fragile this morning as I went to my first away game for a while yesterday, it was a class game, and we're still top of the league so all good!", much to host and former Rangers player Ally McCoist's amusement.

After a couple of light-hearted jokes with the presenters, Martin went on to describe the difference between filming for Our House, compared to his other lighter dramas on ITV.
The 37-year-old said: "It's a completely different thing [from Line of Duty], it is, from my point of view as an actor, the most emotionally draining job I have done in a long time.

"It’s a relationship drama to some extent, showcasing the breakdown of a marriage, and the man I am portraying. His life is just on a downward, depressive spiral in all aspects.
"He puts himself in situations way out of his depth throughout the series, but the show also kinda morphs itself into a thriller of sorts, a lot of cliffhangers a lot of twists and turns throughout."
Martin also spoke about the fact that next week is the 20 year anniversary of the film that set him on the path to stardom, in west coast based film 'Sweet Sixteen', directed by Ken Loach.
Martin added: "If I’d known the scope of what I was involved in, it would have been really daunting, but as a 17-year-old kid who had never acted before, I was fearless.”
Compston will appear at Glasgow Film Festival on March 13 for a special anniversary screening of the 2002 film, alongside the cast and crew that worked on the movie.
Martin's newest ITV drama, Our House, begins tonight at 9pm, and will continue until Thursday, March 10.
