VINE: Who knew that Eastenders’ Ian Beale is the biggest Thierry Henry fan this side of the Seine?

Pure, unadulterated glee from the actor

Darragh Murphy

We at SportsJOE know a little bit about a lot of things. But one thing about which we know pretty much nothing is soap operas.

But after doing a little bit of research we found out that this Adam Woodyatt fellow is apparently a recognisable face for teatime TV fans.

The actor, who plays Ian Beale on Eastenders, got about as excited as should be medically permitted when Arsenal legend and Sky Sports’ newest pundit took to the stage at the National Television Awards last night.

It’s an incredible reaction, especially from a Liverpool fan, but Woodyatt is clearly still in awe of the Frenchman who once did this against his beloved Reds.
