As Geroge and Amal Clooney deny claims the lawyer is pregnant with their third child, the Echo looks back at when the superstar actor and director was spotted in Hampshire.

It came late November 2014 - shortly after the pair had married.

The Hollywood legend was seen on the set of Downton Abbey, alongside co-star Hugh Bonneville.

The pair were filming a spin-off sketch of the hit period drama for ITV's annual Text Santa appeal.

Daily Echo:

His co-stars previously said they were unsure if he would be appearing until he turned up on set for the drama, which was filmed at the Highclere estate in Hampshire.

Southampton actress Laura Carmichael also spoke about how Clooney was seen planting a kiss on the Dowager Countess, played by Dame Maggie Smith, during his appearance, which prompts her to swoon.

Carmichael said: ''George plants a kiss and Maggie ends up on the floor, it's wonderful. He was hilarious.''
