Former Coronation Street star Sam Retford left soap fans speechless with his new look – three years after leaving the soap.
The soap actor, 25, who played Curtis Delamere and also played Cory Wilson in Channel 4’s Ackley Bridge, showed off his new rugged look on Instagram.
Sam posted a string of snaps during his time in Scotland with the first picture showing him rocking a With windswept hair and an untrimmed beard.
He simply captioned the post: ‘Summer in Scotland.’
Fans were actually living for the new look, with @shanebenson commenting: ‘That beard is majestic.’

During Sam’s final Corrie scenes, Curtis’ ex Emma Brooker (Alexandra Mardell) was heartbroken after Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) accused him of stealing £100k from his late son Oliver’s charity fund.
During the second instalment of his last episode, Steve failed to tell Emma there was a delay in transferring the money, which meant Curtis never stole it.
A heartbroken Emma opened up to Steve, telling her dad how she will never forgive him for his theft.
Later, she was stunned when to see Curtis arrive on her doorstep and try to fight for their relationship.
Sadly, as Emma was still under the impression he had stolen the money at this point, she wasn’t prepared to forgive him.
As Emma left the flat, she came across her dad, who was in the middle of a photoshoot with a huge £100k cheque in front of him.
Realising her dad had been lying, Emma was furious and desperately searched for Curtis, who was planning on leaving Weatherfield.
