In a recent interview, Sam Heughan revealed that Outlander bosses hired an intimacy coordinator for the sixth season.
Vanessa Coffey joined the Outlander team, but has worked on many impressive projects like Billie Piper's I Hate Suzie, ITV's No Return and BBC's Rules of The Game.
Sam, 41, made the revelation that an intimacy coordinator had joined the Starz show during a recent appearance on the Drew Barrymore Show.
The Dumfries born actor told Drew: "An intimacy advisor is kind of a more common practice now in the industry, when we started, we were totally green. You know, in your career, you've had to do similar stuff.
"As an actor or actress, you're kind of just thrown in the deep end.
"And we were, and we sort of found our way through it together, and we've supported each other through it.
"But actually bringing someone on board means we're all more supported.
"We can find new ways to, I guess, be more intimate and to add more to those scenes. So I think it's a really welcome addition... Let's just all get an intimacy advisor, right?"
"I fell into it in quite a weird way," Vanessa told Digital Spy. "I worked as a lawyer in corporate law, and before that, I trained as a dancer.
"After law, I went and retrained as an actor, so I had these three seemingly unrelated things that were floating around.
"Then because of my work at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, which is also where Sam Heughan studied, I started putting things in place for actors who were coming to me saying "Can we have a conversation about my nudity rider, or my contract?" "What sorts of things can I put in place to make sure I am safe?" or "What kind of choreography can I look at to make sure this scene is exactly what I want it to be?"
