Bradley Branning – aka Charlie Clements – almost looks unrecognisable nowadays

EastEnders fans will never forget the beloved Bradley Branning. He was lovely, ginger and married Stacey Slater.

Bradley first joined the square back in 2006 to live with his grandparents Dot and Jim Branning. Throughout his time on the square he reconciled with his dad Max Branning (after he abandoned him as a child), married Stacey (now Fowler) and then split from her after than *infamous Christmas episode * where the whole family watched Stacey and Max kiss on her wedding day. He punched Archie Mitchell after he found out he raped Stacey and died after he fell of the Queen Vic's roof.

Bradley will always have a place in our heart because he was just so lovely and we loved his relationship with Stacey.

When we think of Charlie Clements, the actor who played the EastEnders character, we still imagine him as innocent looking Bradley but the 29-year-old actor has recently posted a selfie and it's safe to say he looks completely different.

Posting a photo on Twitter, he wrote: "A year ago everyone was up in arms because I looked SO different at 28 to 18… bet they didn't expect this at 29! #actor #chameleon"

Err, how different does he look then?

He's bald and is wearing glasses! Long gone are the days he looked like a shy teenager.

Bradley death was included in EastEnders first ever live episode and viewers also discovered that it was actually Stacey who murdered Archie Mitchell.
