Benidorm star Asa Elliott reveals wife is pregnant with their second baby after quitting fame to become delivery driver

: "At the beginning of the lockdown the work was drying up for obvious reasons and I thought to myself, 'I'm not going to be sat around on my hands for this'.

"I got a job with my local shop in Kingswood doing deliveries for them and I helped out at the local vaccination centres as a volunteer steward.”

He added: "I look back and I just think 'what a difference a year can make'. This time last year I was making my deliveries, and enjoying it, but now I'm back on the boats and have been out to Barbados.”

After appearing on Benidorm, Asa went on to join the cast of Benidorm Live in 2018/19.

He was originally spotted for the role while working in Benidorm by the show’s creator.

Discussing his time on the hit show, Asa said: "Working on Benidorm it didn't seem like a big deal at the time, I wasn't nervous or anything like that, it is only looking back I realise how big it was.

"It is one of those shows that just seems to stick around with streaming and things like that. I love it when people get in touch that have just watched it for the first time and find me on social media.”
