Sheridan Smith sends fans wild as she cosies up to handsome ‘set BFF’ while filming in Greece 

Sheridan Smith sent fans wild as she cosied up to a handsome crew member while filming in Greece. 

The Cilla actress, 42, posed with stunt man Alex Anlos as she enjoyed some time off from working on new Paramount TV production, The Castaways. 

In the Instagram snap on Sunday, Stunt coordinator and fight choreographer Alex smiled as he put his head next to Sheridan for a selfie. 

Sheridan wrote on her Instagram story: ‘Hanging out after stunt rehearsals with @that_stunt _dude greece. This guy has made me look bad a**’, adding a love heart and smiling face emoji . 

The former Gavin and Stacey actress also shared pictures of the pair on her grid that she captioned: ‘Love filming here in Greece. With my set bff @that_stunt_dude. I was a non swimmer till we met!’

Fans of the star went wild for the snap, quick to remark that they made a ‘nice looking couple’. 

They commented: ‘You 2 look good together just saying’; ‘Very easy on the eye too ‘; ‘A bit of alright’; ‘Stunnnnnning, you look so happy’; ‘Is he single’; ‘Good looking chap you have there x’; ‘Exciting what you filming xx’; ‘You make a nice looking couple ❤️’

Sheridan who recently starred in the West End production of Shirley Valentine flew to Greece last month with her son Billy for her new acting role. 

Before she went she referred to her role of Shirley – who fell in love with a Greek man called Costas – writing:’…I’m genuinely off to Greece filming for 6 weeks. You couldn’t write it – let’s hope I find my Costas. Not the coffee!’ 

Stepping into shoes first worn by Pauline Collins in a 1989 film of the same name, the actress was a hit with critics for her one-woman performance as the middle-aged lonely-heart.

Her press night performance was given a rapturous reception, with an emotional Smith evidently taken aback by the response as she closed the performance by welcoming her 22-month old son Billy onto the stage.

Sheridan is currently single following her split last year from boyfriend Alex Lawler after four months of dating. 

She shares son Billy, three, with insurance broker Jamie Horn whom she had a three year relationship with.

In January it was claimed she had joined celebrity dating app Raya in a bid to find love. 

A source told The Sun: ‘Sheridan is going to be busy in rehearsals for her new stage show, so she hasn’t got time to be going out and trying to meet guys. 

‘Swiping on an app and having quiet, intimate chats is much more suited to her lifestyle.’

They added that she was ‘looking for new adventures in 2023’ with the dating app.

And she’s no stranger to love in the modern age, after meeting former fiancé Jamie via Tinder in 2018.

Looking for love: The actress, 41, recently joked that she was emulating her role of Shirley Valentine, a Liverpudlian housewife who falls in love with Costas, a Greek Taverna owner (the film in 1989)
