The child star has a dramatic new look

Published 1st Feb 2016

My Parents Are Aliens was a hugely popular children’s TV show back in the early noughties, and now ten years on from the last episode, main character Josh Barker has undergone a dramatic makeover.

The famous tea-time show will give viewers fond memories about kids trying to keep their out of control foster parents who were aliens in check.

Actor Alex Kew, who played the popular role is now unrecognisable and has pursued a music career since the show ended in 2006. Alex, who had previously been part of two rock bands, is now focusing on a solo career and playing intimate gigs for fans.

Before his change in career, Alex also played parts in popular 2002 film About A Boy with actor Hugh Grant and had a stint on ITV crime drama The Bill.

Fans of the show were quick to point out the change of appearance on Twitter.
