Fans of the beloved BBC sitcom Gavin & Stacey have been left utterly stunned after a recent picture of the actor who played Neil the Baby emerged, showing him now as a fully-grown teenager.
The infant character, the son of Nessa (Ruth Jones) and Smithy (James Corden), was a central part of the show's heartwarming and hilarious dynamic. Now, the young actor behind the role looks completely different, a world away from the swaddled baby last seen on our screens.
The surprising snapshot has since gone viral, circulating rapidly on social media and prompting a wave of nostalgia and disbelief from viewers of the classic British comedy.
Many fans expressed their shock, with comments like 'I feel so old!' flooding the posts, as the image served as a stark reminder of just how much time has passed since the show's finale.
The role of Neil the Baby was actually played by several children throughout the show's run, but this particular actor's transformation has captured the public's imagination the most.
This blast from the past has only intensified the ongoing clamour from fans for more Gavin & Stacey content, following the enormous success of the 2019 Christmas special which drew record-breaking viewing figures.
