It’s Not Where You Start

From foster child to foster carer, high-school dropout to university graduate, and Glasgows back streets to Hollywood sets Scott Kyles journey is anything but ordinary.
Its Not Where You Start is a raw, heartfelt story about resilience, second chances, and refusing to let your beginnings define your future. Award-winning actor and producer Scott Kyle (Outlander, Kajaki, The Angels Share, Billy & Tim) takes audiences through the twists, setbacks, and unexpected opportunities that shaped his life including the full-circle return of Billy & Tim and a near-miss with working alongside Harrison Ford.
