One Benidorm actress looks totally unrecognisable six years after the sitcom ended. Laila Zaidi played Cyd in the final series of Derren Litten’s comedy hit. Appearing as Rob Dawson’s girlfriend in the show, Cyd raised suspicions when his family became convinced she was a drugs mule illegally smuggling cocaine into the seaside resort.
Now, in 2024, Laila is looking completely different to her bikini-clad character as she headed out in a see-through dress with her tiny thong completely visible underneath. The star was out in Manchester for a press event, and looked unfazed despite opting not to wear a bra in her sheer ensemble. Instead, Laila applied silver nipple pasties to keep her modesty contained, showing off her hourglass figure in the gown dotted with silver embellishments.
She slung a designer handbag over one shoulder and added silver chandelier earrings to each lobe while holding a cocktail and preening at herself in the mirror. Laila secured her dark brunette tresses up into a sleek bun atop her head for the look, dazzling in her Oh Polly outfit and sending fans into meltdown. One commenter on her latest Instagram post gushed: “Wowzers, what a dress, what a bod!” Somebody else couldn’t help but write: “Just so fit!” As another social media user penned: “Oh WOW you look phenomenal!” A fourth cheekily quipped: “Nah you’re a joke.
Like HOW are you this beautiful?!” Laila is currently starring in the new musical Frankie Goes to Bollywood, alongsi.
