What do the Outnumbered cast look like now? Plus what they've been up to
Outnumbered is returning for a Christmas 2024 special, but what do the beloved cast look like now?
Hit comedy Outnumbered is officially returning to our screens for a Christmas 2024 special and fans couldn't be happier. It's the first new episode of the popular series since 2016 and it's safe to say that the Brockman children are far from being small anymore.
The upcoming special sees Susan (Claire Skinner) and Pete (Hugh Dennis) attempt to bring their children together for one traditional Christmas – but of course, it's never plain-sailing with this family.
The new episode will see the full main cast from the original series reprise their roles, so that means that as well as the Brockman parents, we'll be seeing just how Tyger Drew-Honey, Daniel Roche and Ramona Marquez have all grown up.
On the announcement of the Christmas special, Dennis said: "I can't wait for the Brockmans to be back together again. Pete and Sue have downsized, the children are no longer children, but I'm sure family life will prove to be just as chaotic as ever."
Of course, the kids from season one look a little different from how they are now. Read on for everything you need to know about the cast of Outnumbered and what they've been up to since the original series.
Outnumbered cast
Tyger Drew-Honey plays Jake
Drew-Honey's spent the past few years trying his hand at everything from guest roles in Midsomer Murders and Citizen Khan, to real life adventures in Celebs Go Dating, Celebrity Mastermind, Celebrity Masterchef and 24 Hours in the Past.
You might also have spotted him doing some presenting on his very own BBC Three series, Tyger Takes On. He has more recently made his pantomime debut playing Prince Charming in Lighthouse Poole's production of Cinderella in 2022.
"It seems absurd people don't realise that we age at the same rate as everyone else on the planet" the now 28-year-old previously told Radio Times. "People say 'I thought you were 11!' I was…"
More recently, all three Outnumbered siblings also partnered up for Comic Relief and to show their support for this year's Red Noses.
Daniel Roche plays Ben
Aside from starring as the middle child in Outnumbered, Roche also played Just William’s William Brown back in 2010 and even joined Dani’s House as Megaboyd back in the day.
Mostly, though, Roche has been off our screens since the Outnumbered 2014 Christmas Special. The 24-year-old juggles acting with his commitments to rugby, as he's playing semi-professionally with Wasps Academy and previously told Radio Times that it's "hard to juggle the two".
Ramona Marquez plays Karen
The littlest Brockman is 23-years-old now and has amassed a whopping 118,000 followers on Instagram. Marquez is well known thanks to roles in The King’s Speech (Princess Margaret), Arthur Christmas and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, but it's her time as Karen that seems to have captured the imagination of the viewing public.
"I get recognised a lot and people can't get their head around it that I'm not Karen – and I'm not a child!", she said.
