Hollyoaks Luke Morgan star looks so different as he heads to Manchester after filming tragic exit

Soap favourite Gary Lucy has showcased a different look after filming his final scenes on Hollyoaks. Gary, 40, who has played Luke Morgan in the Channel Four soap since 1999, returned to social media on Thursday to reveal a fresh haircut with a beard.

The actor, who also played Kyle Pascoe in the ITV Football drama Footballers' Wives and Danny Pennant in EastEnders, told fans: "Been a while … new haircut / new beard … general manscaping … and more importantly a lighter mood !!!…. So … “ready or not here I come” happy Thursday everyone #possitivity #lawofattraction #itsgoodtotalk #powerful."
