- Award-winning Scots actor Sam Heughan - best-known for playing the lead role in hit television show Outlander - has spoken of his delight after receiving an honorary degree from the University of Stirling.
The 39-year-old star - recognised for his outstanding contribution to acting and charitable endeavours - said he was “thrilled” by the accolade, as he celebrated alongside hundreds of graduating students in Stirling today (June 27).
Mr Heughan plays Jamie Fraser in Outlander - part of which was filmed on the Stirling campus, with locations including the Pathfoot Building, the link bridge and Hermitage Woods. He has won a number of best actor awards for his performances in the series, and received nominations for both a BAFTA and a Critic’s Choice Television Award.
Mr Heughan is an ardent supporter of the blood cancer charity, Bloodwise, and has established his own charitable foundation, My Peak Challenge.

An absolutely amazing speech... so different and personal...spotted with funny remarks ( (few people noticed and reacted)...An undeniable proof that he himself has elaborated it and delivered it to the audience with so much genuine emotion. Sam Heughan a humanist....a personality encompassing all the traits of an open minded, charitable , frank, genuine person dedicated to his profession and to the welfare of the others and nature.. Sterling University should be proud of having had him as a student.
Oh Sam, I wish people had laughed with your speech as much as I did! Such a shame they didn't appreciate your jokes. But you conducted yourself very well and gracefully! Congrats on your doctorate!! :)
Exactly same here
I am glad the lady at the back appreciated him...
Happy Birthday Doctor Heughan
Kind, sincere, funny, smart and beautiful...congratulations Sam ♥️😍
Congratulations Sam Heughan. Though I only knew you in your movie series Outlander with Caitríona Balfe, I know you are a good man. May God bless you and Caitríona always.
Congratulations sweet Sam, love you always. Outlander brought Scotland to life so much more.
Such a witty speech with heart! I just love hearing him being interviewed and showing his true open and sweet nature showing. He is a wonderful person with so much talent. Go Sam! You deserve every good thing!
He's so gorgeous.
Graduation ceremonies are usually so solemn...as an academic I know that it can be quite tedious sitting through the entire ceremony and trying not to look bored. In any case, I love the speech and it was so sincere and well phrased. Sam is such a class act .. if only those folks will lighten up...
Wonderful Sam.🏴🌠🥇🏅
Great job Sam.not just hot but intelligent and kind👍
These ppl must have been really tired or something.
This was so smart n funny.
“Tough room” they say in comedy. My God what a tough room indeed! Poor Sam!
What a memorable graduation for them!
Sam’s such a witty doll!
I love this actor but somebody can translate in french because i don’t understand all. Thank you (sorry for my english)
You are such a great man. Best Wishes🎉🎉
Sam, you’re the best! You’re so sweet! And nothing negative ever comes out of your mouth. Appreciate you!
Hes such a great person.
I love the guy behind him. He could at least try to look more interested.
Seriously. Does he realize that he is on camera?
😂😂😂
@@mytruthbekind5793 he is picking his fingernails!
That's what I was thinking too!
@4:07 To the guy in the back, I appreciate you for that look at that moment. Still love you Sam!
Great speech, well done
Love the humor.
Fantastic speech!
so funny! i especially liked the parts where he gets his tongue twisted around.
“ I wrote this last night” ~sam
Great speech Sam !
I just love that they put english subtitles xD
They're for people who are hearing impaired.
If that were the case, wouldn't all videos have captions?
Most public organisations, subject to accessibility rules, have subtitles for hearing impaired viewers. It's a requirement.
Tebrikler canım sen her şeye layıksın SAM HEUGHAN SEN BİZİM İDÖLÜMSÜNÜZ VE EN ÖNEMLİSİ İNSANSIN HERKEZE İNSAN DENMİYOR AMA SEN TAM İNSANSİN HER YÖNDEN TEBRİKLER.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

These people need to learn how to have some sense of humor!! Sam was really clever and FUNNY

Y por favor traduzcanlo en español por favor gracias
In 'Breaking the mould' you played a doctor, Sam 😊
Loved his speech but I‘m so confused he’s a doctor now? What exactly is this? It doesn’t exist in my country.
Jeez. Tough-crowd...
Guy behind him isn't very thrilled by Sam.
I blocked that guy with my hand so he wouldn't distract me from Sam's fantastic speech
@@sweingold5686 😄👏
Traduzcan al español por favor gracias
👍👍
Que pena! Não entendi nadica de nada. Cadê a tradução?
I was really rooting for Sam, wanting this to be a good speech...but it just wasn’t. Being someone who has achieved a graduate degree, I know what a grueling process the graduates in this audience just went through to be there. They had to make huge sacrifices, giving up other passions and loves (precious time spent with family, at least four years of their life, their own mental health, etc.) to sit in that seat on this day. When Sam admits he wrote this speech last night, it’s such a slap in the face. He’s being handed a degree for doing other difficult things but not the same difficult process these graduates went through. That is such an honor! Instead of accepting this with (at least outward) humility, he focuses on his time spent filming Outlander...Not really a time for personal marketing. I’m sure it’s hard being an actor and having to do speeches all the time. If he would have run this by his manager or someone (anyone who has earned a graduate degree), they would have told him to abort mission. Next time though! Still rooting for Sam!

👍👍😘
Poor Sam, his sense of humor seems to be lost, for the most part, on those in attendance.
SUBTITULOS PLEASEEE
Hubba-Hubba-Hubba.
Nothing there for the students to learn and carry into the future? Not motivational at all. A bit disappointed actually.
Soor pus in the back ground...... what a advert for the place.
This young actor just received an honorary degree. He is there to speak to the graduates of their future. Instead, he says he only wrote his comments "last night" showing he didn't really care much about the honor. He speaks of himself and tells jokes rather than speaking words of inspiration to the real graduates. He is a fine actor, but this recording makes me very sad. It is no wonder the people on the platform with him are dour. I'm sure they expected more. There have been many other actors who have been asked to speak at graduations who presented inspiration and challenges to the young people. Instead, Sam used the occasion to "toot his own horn" and joke around. Hmmmmmmmm
Thats true. Im surprise about his speech.
That's what I thought too. I found his jokes to be awkward at times and out of place. Not trying to be mean just dude needs to not just fill the silence.
I think he was nervous
No ! that’s a bit harsh Jo Ellen Chisholm !
@@lorraineslade6048 Look at the other comments...the consensus with the people bothering to reply in the comments are nearly all positive and appreciative. ..I think the above comment is completely misguided, unrealistic and as lousy harsh...not many people could do better and I think the person who is being a bit damming is influenced by the poor response of the person behind himp
Oh he didnt enjoy that one bit a lovely speech received into a sea of mud dead pan. Oh i cringed hard here.
IS IT JUST ME OR DOES HE LOOK LIKE HE IS BALDING HERE
Oh my goodness, is he aging naturally? The horror! (Irony may occur.) Besides, loads of sexy men are completely bald and most men in their 30s/40s lose their locks gradually. Even actors. Don't worry, Jamie's always going to have a lovely mob of hair.
Such a fitting honour, but is it just me or does Sam look like he is balding?
Because of repeated colouring of his blond hair to turn into red headed Scots , he said in one interview, about falling off of his hair.
THAT is the least of his woes! Sam H. was just honored with a degree from Stirling University, Scotland. A proud moment to "type" the least ! He also spoke emmaculately , despite writing only the night before. His diction was seamless as well. His Mom would've definitely been proud, amongst many other moments !
Dead audience, but that is the academic demographic lol. Speaking from experience...
