'Utterly besotted': Scots star James Cosmo spotted with former River City actor

SCOTS actor James Cosmo has been spotted enjoying an afternoon in Glasgow with a former River City star.

The Braveheart, Trainspotting, and Game of Thrones actor was pictured at Pavement in Merchant City with Leah MacRae over the weekend.

The actress – who played Ellie McLean in the popular Scottish soap – uploaded a snap with the famous Clydebank actor to her Instagram account on Sunday.

The caption reads: "My liege. Utterly besotted with this insanely talented, beautiful man.

"Whit a big dreamboat. Pinch me now."

It's believed the 75-year-old is currently in the city for the filming of an upcoming six-part BBC One series titled "Nightsleeper".

The show boasts a star-studded cast including Joe Cole, who is known for his role as John Shelby in Peaky Blinders, Alexandra Roach, Cosmo, Ruth Madeley, MacRae, and more.

It is set on a sleeper train travelling from London to Glasgow.
