As he draws towards the end of his time on Outlander<\/a>, Sam Heughan will next be seen in Channel 4\u2019s The Couple Next Door<\/a>, a steamy<\/a> new thriller starting next week.<\/p>\n

The series, which also stars Eleanor Tomlinson, Alfred Enoch and Jessica De Gouw, follows two couples who become friends after one moves into the other\u2019s neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s not long before this friendship becomes more complicated, after an unexpected sexual entanglement.<\/p>\n

As we get closer to the show airing, Heughan has teased what fans can expect, saying that the \u201cstylised\u201d drama is also \u201cvery sexy\u201d and \u201cvery dark\u201d.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI think the show is constantly turned on his head. That\u2019s what I loved about it, from the beginning, is this kind of weirdness.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a stylised show, but it\u2019s very sexy, very dark. And I think people will be disgusted or excited. Everyone\u2019s going to be on different sides on this.\u201d<\/p>\n
