Lily’s look has changed dramatically in the years since the show

Rachel gave lovesick Simon a hard time for his embarrassing obsession with her pal.

She played a main role in the episode Night Out in London where Will attempts to “pull” her in a London nightclub when he is amazed that she likes him enough to speak to him.

However, she goes for another boy.

Rachel is seen in numerous other episodes throughout the show’s run, mostly with Carli, but does not feature prominently in any of them.

She also appeared in the first big screen adaptation of the series in 2011.

The film sees the lads travel to Malia to celebrate finishing school. However, it doesn’t go to plan as Simon spots Carli in the Crete town who has also jetted off with her friends.

He spends the whole trip trying to woo her, pitting him against a dodgy holiday rep who also has the hots for her.

Lily, who was born in Edinburgh, admits she’s changed a lot since her time in the Channel 4 sitcom.

Speaking to The Scottish Sun, the 31-year-old said: “For a while I was spotted but now I look quite different and it reminds me how long it’s been.

“I’ve had one guy cycle past the stop while I was sitting and he said bus w*****s.

“I don’t know if he recognised me.

“He was one of those little chavs on a bike that was 11 and had a lot to prove.

“He was cycling and not even in a car, he can’t say that!”

Lily also had roles in Silent Witness and Cuffs.

Her last acting role came in short 2017 film The Landlady.
