Does Steph’s doctor in Emmerdale look familiar? Here’s where you recognise actor Tam Williams from
Tam Williams is a familiar face to telly viewers
Steph’s doctor makes an appearance in Emmerdale when Steph has an appointment with him in today’s episode. She’s determined to have a nose job in an attempt t stop her looking like her abusive grandfather Anthony any more.
It’s a drastic step, there’s no doubt. But Steph’s absolutely sure this is the right thing to do. So sure, in fact, that she lies to her doctor about why she wants a nose job!
She tells him that she was bullied at boarding school thanks to her nose, and she can’t get over it. When the surgeon tells her that her nose is “unremarkable” Steph dials up the charm and soon he’s agreeing to do the op.
And later in the episode it’s revealed that Steph’s not stopping there. She’s also planning a brow lift, and who knows what else!
Where have you seen Steph’s doctor in Emmerdale before?
Steph’s doctor might look familiar to eagle-eyed viewers and that’s because he’s been on television for years.
Tam Williams, who plays the creative surgeon, has been acting in TV dramas since he was a teenager when he appeared in a 1980s episode of Doctor Who.
Since then he’s enjoyed a flourishing career on screen and on stage. He even played Moneypenny’s boyfriend in the Bond film Spectre.
And it’s no wonder Tam is a familiar face to telly fans. He’s been in just about everything! He’s appeared in Holby City, Rosemary and Thyme, Casualty, Silent Witness, Doctors, Heartbeat and many others.
What else has Tam Williams been in?
He’s also voiced video games, and acted in The Archers and in podcasts. So if Tam’s face isn’t familiar, then perhaps his voice will be!
As if all that isn’t enough to keep him busy, Tam is also an accomplished stage actor. He’s often to be found treading the boards in productions of Shakespeare, as well as acting in other classics including Strangers on a Train.
