Caitriona Balfe opens up on 'scary' Outlander set crash

Caitriona Balfe has revealed that she laughed “out of terror” when she was involved in a scary incident on set of Outlander.

The Monaghan native, who stars as World War II nurse Claire Randall in the drama, described how some things can go wrong on set.
