SCOTS Breaking Bad star Laura Fraser has revealed she has taken up Munro bagging since filming her latest TV role in Scotland.

The Glasgow-born actress, 41, plays a detective in ITV’s The Loch, which starts next month.

Speaking on radio 2 she said she had never visited Loch Ness or Glencoe before filming the murder mystery, but is now “obsessed” with climbing Scotland’s 3,000ft-plus mountains.

She said: “It made me ashamed that I had never been to Loch Ness, and I had never been to Glencoe until I did this job. It’s ridiculous. I’m from Glasgow, and it’s just up the road. But then we went camping after I did the job and we’re obsessed with climbing all the Munros, and loving it now.”

Fraser shot to worldwide fame as black market drug dealer Lydia Rodarte-Quayle in Breaking Bad, and has since appeared in spin-off series Better Call Saul.

The Scot, who has a daughter Lila with writer Karl Geary, said the family had become “total hippies” before returning to Glasgow two years ago.

She said: “We were living in upstate New York for a while. We were living in the wilderness, on a mountain in the woods near Woodstock.

“We became total hippies. We had herds of deer coming through our garden and black bears.

“Then there was deep snow for about six months of the year so we decided to move back. ”
