A CORONATION Street star looks unrecognisable as she lands a huge new job.
Actress Christine Mackie is best known for playing the role of Dr Graddas on the long-running show.
She’s been responsible for treating the majority of Wetherfield residents over the years.
However, Christine is unrecognisable as she ditched the fictional GP practice for the stage.
She is currently starring in King Lear at Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester.
Christine plays the lead role of Lear.
Speaking about performing in the show, she said: “I was astonished to be asked to play Lear but I’m so excited about it.”
Coronation Street viewers recently watched as Roy attended an appointment with Dr Gaddas (Christine Mackie) with chest pains.
To make matters worse, he let her know he had also been feeling breathless, prompting her to arrange for some tests.
Meanwhile, an Emmerdale actress who was dubbed the “sexiest soap star” looked unrecognisable.
Adele Silva played the role of Kelly Windsor in the long-running ITV soap on and off for 19 years.
She’s best remembered for being at the centre of a number of saucy affairs.
The glamour model romped with Ethan Blake, Jimmy King and Rodney Blackstock – and even had an affair with her on-screen step-brother Scott, played by Ben Freeman.
However, 13 years on from departing the Yorkshire Dales, Adele looks unrecognisable.
The 42-year-old was recently snapped while out walking in London with a friend.
