In the caption, he said: "Remember Brookside? Here’s Lily with Barry Grant played by Paul Usher.
"Lily had been sent by Sizzler the Gangster to open Barry’s new Restaurant. He’d been told a big blonde from Birkenhead was coming but I don’t think Lily was quite what he expected…" Instagram People in the comments were loving the reminder. One person said: "Loved Lily Savage, our Vera & all the gang....brilliant." and another said: "I remember watching you on Brookside, this was great. what a great picture of yourself and Barry grant being the gangsters mum."
