A group of lucky girls were left starstruck after bumping into one of TVs hottest young stars right here in the city.

Gossip Girl heart-throb Ed Westwick swapped the Upper East Side for Glasgow's West End on Monday night and the girls were lucky enough to grab a quick selfie.

The British actor was spotted on Ashton Lane after having dinner at a nearby restaurant with a group of friends.

Westwick shot to fame for his role as Chuck Bass in the hit American show which followed a group of rich teenagers from the Upper East Side of New York.

He has since gone on to become leading man material in films including Chalet Girl.

His most recent work saw him returning to his British accent in BBC comedy White Gold alongside Inbetweeners star James Buckley.
