Tommy Knight 28 : ‘He’s managed to get so much hotter!’ Waterloo Road star Tommy Knight is a far cry from boyish Kevin Skelton as he stuns fans with a hipster beard and beanie at Comic Con Wiki, Bio, Age

One could be forgiven for not recognizing Waterloo Road star Tommy Knight while posing with a fan at Comic Con last week, but those who did wasted no time in showing their appreciation.

The 28-year-old actor was a far cry from Kevin Skelton, his teenage character in the Rochdale-based BBC drama, as he displayed a well-groomed beard that was best suited to London’s trendy hipster capital, Shoreditch.

Tommy, who also starred in the Doctor Who spinoff show Sarah Jane Adventures, completed the offbeat look with a knitted yellow watch cap and floral print shirt.

Others couldn’t believe it was him: “You can’t be trying to tell me that it’s probably Tommy Knight with the yellow hat.”

Tommy played the character of Kevin Skelton, whose stories consisted of being adopted by his teacher Daniel Chalk, his relationship with Dynasty Barry, and then having an affair with a teaching assistant.

He also suffered a stroke before a college interview.

Tommy only appeared on the show for two seasons, from season eight to season 10.

He also played Luke Smith on Sarah Jane Adventures, but it was written as a regular on the show in 2010, but he appeared occasionally via video chat.

He also appeared on The Bill and played a murder victim on Glue.
