Will Mellor playfully posed with two pints of lager and a packet of crisps on a recent night out making a playful reference to the BBC sitcom of the same name he starred in.

The actor looked in his element with a pint in each hand and crisps locked between his teeth as he playfully referenced his decade long sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps which he starred in as Gaz Wilkinson.
