Ex EastEnders star Danny Dyer was pictured looking dishevelled and worse for wear on the set of his new Sky comedy Mr Bigstuff on Wednesday.
The soap actor and TV presenter, 46, transformed into the character of drug addict Lee, with the look comprising slicked back hair and rough stubble and a dirty vest.
For the scene, he looked less than impressed outside a house which displayed an enormous sign stating ‘no more lockdowns’ in reference to Covid times.
Sporting his go-to brown leather jacket, Danny, who recently revealed the real reason why he left the beloved soap opera EastEnders, was pictured looking rough as he donned in shabby jeans and a grey vest.
His bad-lad look was paired with a pair of worn-looking brown Chelsea boots – which appear to be a regular occurrence throughout the series.

Outside the anti-lockdown display, Danny was being filmed for his new role in the six-part series.
Danny plays an estranged brother, trying to patch up his sibling rivalry.
The storyline is described as a ‘story of two estranged brothers; Glen (Ryan Sampson), a nervy perfectionist striving to live the suburban ideal and Lee (Dyer) an alpha male with a prescription drug addiction and a biscuit tin full of his dad’s ashes.
Glen and his fiancée share a perfect yet mundane life – as despite him suffering crippling erectile dysfunction and Kirsty has a secret shoplifting habit, but they’re happy.
This soon comes to a close when Lee comes crashing into their lives whilst on the run from his past and their perfect lives start to fall apart.
Ryan was also pictured on the set as he was filmed leaving the house with a busted eye and a bleeding face.
Harriet Webb, 37, was also spotted on the scene as she left little to the imagination when she was seen in a grubby-looking towel with a thin dressing gown over the top.
The official release date for the show is yet to be announced, but fans should expect the first episode to air in 2023.

Danny, who played Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on the BBC soap for nine years until exiting last Christmas, admitted he felt the standards drop towards the latter part of his time on the show.
Speaking at a fan Q&A in London in September, he said: ‘The first few years we f***ing smashed it. It was powerful s**t. The viewer listened to us more than these f***ing c* politicians.
‘I was blessed with some amazing storylines, some s**te ones as well.
‘They f***ed it up towards the end. It’s a shame it had to come to an end, but I’d f***ing had enough.’
That wasn’t the only reason Danny left it appears – as he didn’t miss the opportunity to take aim at some of his former co-stars.
