Coronation Street’s Matthew Dunster unrecognisable 21 years after quitting as troublemaker Ryan – and huge career change
CORONATION Street star Matthew Dunster - famed for playing bad boy Ryan Sykes - looks completely unrecognisable two decades on from his soap career. The Lancashire-born actor arrived on the ITV cobbles in 2000 following the death of his character's little brother Dean. The hardman, often seen with his close-cut hairstyle and a black puffer jacket, teamed up with big sister Linda Baldwin before bagging a job in the iconic Underworld factory.
