Emmerdale star James Hooton was on This Morning on Tuesday to discuss his character Sam Dingle's current storyline with Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes.
But viewers were more interested in the surprising sound of James' voice, which is completely different to that of his character.
One called him a "b****y good actor" as many remarked on how he sounded worlds away from his alter ego on the ITV soap.
Taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: "Wow always wondered what the actor who plays Sam dingle was like in real life ! He really plays that part well."
"I was today years old when I heard Sam Dingle's real voice," another posted.
A third wrote: "I always thought that the actor playing Sam Dingle was an idiot. Instead he's just a bloody good actor."
"Oh my god he sounds nothing like Sam Dingle, mindblown," a fourth said.
Another agreed: "Sam Dingle sounds so different in real life."
James was on the show to discuss Sam's upcoming wedding to Lydia Hart, played by Karen Black.
He said: "Yeah things go pretty smooth for a Dingle wedding but fans will have to wait and see.
"Well it is Soapland so Sam and Lydia may only have a happy few weeks."
Emmerdale is now airing just three nights a week because of the coronavirus outbreak.
ITV bosses are rationing episodes after scrapping filming to protect cast and crew from the virus.
*Emmerdale airs tonight at 7pm on ITV
