And over the years, it appears that the Watermelon Sugar hitmaker has been heading in One Direction – towards 55-year-old actor Adam Woodyatt’s wardrobe.

Clemmie Fieldsend reveals how Harry, 29, has been keeping it Beale by looking to the Albert Square legend for inspiration.

Ian’s son Peter has been reincarnated on screen seven times while being played by different actors over the years.

But chart king Harry would surely make the most convincing Peter yet after this week’s big re-Beale.

Both these looks are a long way from scoring a fashion hat-trick.

When Harry wore his flat cap with a dressing gown coat, even diehard fans thought it was a bit naff – and Ian’s take on EastEnders was no better.

Hairy styles

THE normally clean-shaven pop star had a beard in the video of Music For A Sushi Restaurant, but it made him look like Ian when the Albert Square favourite turned up after living homeless in 2012.

Best to leave the stubble As It Was, Harry.

FANS of Harry might be surprised to see him posing in a pair of glasses, but Don’t Worry Darling – it was just for his role in a movie thriller in 2022.

The singer usually leaves the specs appeal to his Walford lookalike.

Hats off to Adam for taking on I’m A Celeb’s Bushtucker Trials.

With the actor now back in EastEnders, maybe it’s Harry’s turn to head Down Under to tackle the jungle creepy crawlies.

In that titfer, he would have to brim and bear it.
