Benidorm star unrecognisable 5 years after beloved ITV series came to an end

Benidorm star Adam Gillen now looks completely different to how he did on the ITV show, five years after it ended back in 2018.

The star played maintenance worker Liam Conroy on the series, which followed the comedic lives of holiday-goers at a Spanish resort.

Adam’s character Liam moved on to work at the Blow ‘n’ Go salon alongside Kenneth Du Beke but stayed on the show until series 10.

And it looks like Adam got inspired by working in the fictional salon, as he’s had a massive transformation in the years that followed.

On the show, he appeared fresh-faced and with red hair, but now, at 37, he’s gone grey and sports a full face of facial hair.

He isn’t super active on Instagram, but posts from earlier this year show him posing for loved-up snaps with actress Laila Zaidi.

Laila actually appeared on Benidorm too, playing the role of Cyd.

It appears that they have been dating since 2017 and fans have been left surprised to learn they are a real life couple.

One person said on one snap: “They are a real life couple!”

Another said: “Very good looking couple.”

While a third commented: “Love you pair.”

The show ended in 2018 with staff at the Solana Hotel worried when they learned it was being sold and taken over.

Since then, there have been rumours of another series, but actress Siobhan Finneran, who appeared as Janice Garvey, has denied them.

She previously told The Sun that the cast and crew did reunite at a comedy convention, but “sadly” the speculation was just rumours.

Siobhan added: “You should probably never say never to anything so popular but as far as I know it won’t be coming back at any point.”
