EastEnders star Jake Wood has shared a strange snap with onscreen wife Jo Joyner as he wished her a happy birthday.
Jake and Jo played Max and Tanya Branning on the soap from 2006 before a dramatic falling out storyline.
But thankfully, as Jake's message shows, the pair remained pally offset.
Jake, 48, took to social media on Monday to share a throwback of him and 44-year-old Jo dressed up in an Egyptian get up.
Jake seemingly was a guard while Jo portrayed Egyptian ruler Cleopatra, including her long black hair.
As she gazes at Jake in his full armoured battle gear, including gold armour and a fur-trimmed helmet, the actor stares at the camera with a not-so-tough glance.
He captioned the amusing post: "Happy birthday @dollyjj. Love ya. Have a great day xxx"
And instead of being embarrassed by the throwback, Jo seemed to see the funny side. She commented back: "ahh, loved doing that play with you."
The photo was also a big hit with onlooking fans, with one going as far as calling the pair the "dream team".
Another put: "I’m obsessed with this photo!!"
And a third added: "You two are amazing! happy birthday @dollyjj! have best day !"
It appears as though Jake isn't one for cutting ties after leaving EastEnders after 15 years earlier this year.
Last week he shared a snap with former co-star Tamzin Outhwaite who played Mel on the soap and he joked "there's life outside the Square".
His appearance shocked fans as he sported a huge bushy beard and he wrote: "Great bumping into my previous work mucker this week. So it turns out there is life outside the Square."
Tamzin followed up his message by saying: "Definitely lots of life outside of and beyond the Square!! So good to catch up xx"
The pair had a brief onscreen fling as scheming Mel and womaniser Max kissed as part of Mel's long-term plan to discredit his brother Jack.
EastEnders airs Mondays and Fridays at 8pm, and Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One.
