Emmerdale fans will remember Finn Barton as a shy, rather awkward character known for his unlucky in love relationships and friendship with Victoria Sugden.But actor Joe Gill looks nothing like his character almost five years after leaving the Yorkshire-based soap.The brother of Ross and Pete Barton and half-brother of Adam, Finn was a much-loved member of the ITV Dales, involved in storylines including a date rape arc and tracking down his mother Emma - along with his brief relationship with Kasim Sabet.He was sadly killed off in October 2017 after being accidentally shot by his own mum, before suffering a cardiac arrest that proved to be fatal.Finn usually sported thick-rimmed square glasses and a mop of dark brunette hair, and tended to opt for a more formal look of blazers and crisp shirts.But in real life, actor Joe tends to go for a more casual look. On his Instagram, he can be seen in a variety of comfortable long-sleeved shirts and khaki pants, or else going for a more outdoorsy look of hoodies, thick coats and boots.But the biggest transformation is his form - as he turned out to be quite the hunk.Joe now sports a full brunette beard and longer curly locks, and has filled out into his broad shoulders and muscular frame.In a new series of headshots, Joe can be seen with his wavy hair worn loose in a halo around his face, while his bright blue eyes gaze into the camera - completing the look with an open denim shirt and brown t-shirt.In his most recent snap, Joe posed alongside his mum, giving her a cheeky cuddle to celebrate Mother’s Day.He wrote alongside the snap: “Happy Mother’s Day, Mum.

I ask you that because we look at people like Kanye West for example who has very publicly been having displays of bipolar recently, these long episodes."But also many people say he's a genius, are you afraid of taking medication because you'll lose some of the benefits
