Miriam Margolyes and Alan Cumming are reuniting for a rip-roaring second season of Channel 4\u2019s Lost in Scotland and Beyond<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Hollywood stars will kick off their journey in Scotland where they will encounter a range of eccentric and unexpected characters (and one esteemed colleague) as they take in some of the country\u2019s most spectacular locations before travelling across the pond to their other mutual home, the USA\u2019s west coast \u2013 a place that has shaped both of their lives.<\/p>\n

In a clip shared exclusively by RadioTimes.com<\/a>, Miriam and Alan meet at the train station at the start of their journey \u2013 with Miriam taking an instant disliking to Alan\u2019s dramatic new hair which he has grown long and dyed black for his role as Robert Burns.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do you look peculiar?\u201d Miriam asks in her trademark blunt and hysterical way. \u201cYou look like Snape.\u201d<\/p>\n

This time, Alan is being accompanied by his dog Lala, and the trio will begin their journey by embarking on the Hogwarts Express, also known as the Jacobites Steam Train, made famous from the Harry Potter movies in which Miriam starred as Professor Sprout.<\/p>\n

They also meet with Succession<\/a>\u2018s Brian Cox at the Dundee Rep, with Alan telling Channel 4: \u201c<\/span>What was great about the three of us being together though were the stories, all the hilarious theatrical stories \u2013 far too many to include in the show. You get old actors together, the stories just come out and that was really lovely. <\/span>I knew Miriam would have a ton up her sleeve and she did.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
