Benidorm star Adam Gillen looks worlds away from his hapless character Liam Conroy more than 11 years after joining the hit-ITV sitcom.
The actor, 37, appears totally unrecognisable nowadays, a stark contrast from his time filming in Spain as a fictional fresh-faced holidaymaker.
In the show, Liam was introduced as the son of Les Conroy - played by Tim Healy, 70 - and later became an employee at the Solana himself in subsequent seasons.
Now posting regular updates to his 20,000 followers on Instagram, Benidorm fans could easily scroll past his page, not knowing that it’s him.
Adam now sports a beard and can be seen in most snaps wearing trendy and youthful outfits – the opposite to the outfits worn by his character Liam.
Back in 2021, Adam reunited with his co-star Tony Maudsley, who played hair salon owner Kenneth, as the pair met up for the Christmas holidays.
The pair frequently appeared in scenes together during their time on the ITV show, with Liam working with Tony's character - Kenneth Du Beke - at his salon at one point.
Alongside the recent festive photograph, Tony tweeted: "Christmas is always better when your favourite people come to visit."
He then further commented: "When @adam_gillen pops round it's like slipping into a cozy pair of slippers."
Having been introduced as a holidaymaker in the fourth season in 2011, Liam later had jobs at the all-inclusive resort on the ITV series including being a maintenance worker.
He however is understood to have decided to leave the Solana in the final episode of the show - broadcast in May 2018 - and embarked on a career with hairdresser Kenneth.
Tony isn't the only former co-star that Adam has remained in contact with - as he's understood to have been in a relationship with Laila Zaidi for a couple of years.
They're said to have met on the set of the final series of Benidorm in 2018, when Laila joined the cast. She played Cyd - introduced as the girlfriend of Rob Dawson (Josh Bolt).
