Brian Conley made for a lively appearance on Loose Women, as he recalled an incident where he received a backhanded compliment from a stranger.
The 61-year-old Conley is known for his role as Tom “Rocky” Cotton in BBC soap EastEnders.
On Loose Women today (19 December), the actor remembered the encounter where a stranger apparently once said to him: “You know you like Brian Conley, no offence!”
