Besides The Stranger, Siobhan has been cast as one of the lady’s maids in Downtown Abbey and of course as the mum, Janice, in Benidorm.

She also played Elaine in ITV drama The Confession last year.

Heidi – Jennifer Saunders

Johanna’s best friend is played by comedy legend Jennifer Saunders. French and Saunders, Absolutely Fabulous, The fairy godmother in Shrek. Need I say more?

Tripp – Shaun Dooley

Shaun Dooley, who plays Tripp in The Stranger, has one of those faces you will forever recognise but not know where from. He does TV interviews all the time and it would probably be easier to list things he hasn’t been in, but here we are.

Shaun played Adam in Silent Witness, Jack in Law and Order, Eddie in Married Single Other, Fisher in The Woman in Black, Pete in Benidorm, Greg in Misfits, Kincaid in Wolfblood, Ricky in Broadchurch, Steve in DCI Banks and he was in SAS: Who Dares Wins. I think that’s enough.

Edgar Price – Anthony Head

Property developer and Adam’s dad, Edgar Price, is played by Anthony Head. He’s best known as Rupert Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But you might also recognise him as Will’s dad in The Inbetweeners, The Prime Minister in Little Britain or the guy from the Nescafe adverts.
