As two of soap world's longest-serving stars, Simon Gregson and Adam Woodyatt are household names with very recognisable faces.
The I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! stars have been gracing our screens as Steve McDonald in Coronation Street and Ian Beale in EastEnders for decades now.
During their stint at Gwrych Castle in Wales - and following the news Adam won't be returning to the BBC soap - fans having been enjoying major throwback snaps of the two actors.
Simon, 47, was just 15-year-old when he first walked on the cobbled streets of Corrie in 1989.
The celebrity camper joined the ITV soap as Steve along with parents Jim and Liz McDonald and twin brother Andy.
32 years on, the Weatherfield resident is now Coronation Street's most married character, having been married seven times to five women over the years.
The taxi driver has enjoyed romances with Corrie ladies such as Karen Phillips, played by Suranne Jones), Becky Granger, Tracy Barlow, Michelle Connor and Leanne Battersby.
Steve has also been at the centre of some hard-hitting storylines on the street.
Most recently, Simon's character has battled with depression on-screen - as well as losing his young son Oliver in 2020, whom he shared with Leanne.
Since joining the long-running soap, Simon has been a regular on viewer's TV screens - briefly taking a break in 2015 for personal reasons but returning the following year.
Like Simon, Adam, 53, also became a soap star as a teenager in the 80s.
The actor first joined EastEnders as Ian Beale in 1985 and just like Steve, Adam's character also holds the record for the most married star in his soap.
Over the years, Ian has enjoyed six marriages to five women - as well as two failed engagements.
Joining the BBC soap for its very first episode, Adam been part of the EastEnders family for over 30 years - with Ian being Albert Square's long-running character.
From owning multiple businesses to coping with the death of his daughter Lucy, Ian has been kept busy in Albert Square over the last three decades.
At the end of January 2021 - after 36 years playing Ian - Adam announced he would be taking a break from the series and has since confirmed he does not know when and if he'll return.
It's believed the former soap star is hoping his stint on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! will bring him some new opportunities.
Both Simon and Adam have been entertaining viewers of the ITV show since entering the camp as late arrivals.
The duo made their debut as Lord of the castle, and enjoyed a pampered existence compared to the other celebrity campers.
Since rocking up in the Welsh camp, the soap stars have been replaced by football legend David Ginola and former Emmerdale actor Danny Miller as camp leaders.
*I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! airs every night at 9pm on ITV.
