To many, Ralf Little will be known for his role as DI Neville Parker in easy-watching, BBC murder mystery drama, Death in Paradise. However this wasn't his first big role on our screens.
Ralf's breakthrough role came when he appeared as Antony Royle in The Royle Family in 1998. His last time in that show was in 2010 and he'd subsequently go on to land a part in BBC comedy, Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, alongside Will Mellor and Sheridan Smith.
Since then, the 43-year-old actor from Oldham has appeared countless times on TV and on Friday, February 10, he featured as a guest on BBC Wales' Six Nations Sin Bin. But who is Ralf's famous fiancée and will there ever be a Two Pints of Lager reunion? Here's everything you need to know.

The Death in Paradise star is engaged to successful US playwright and screenwriter Lindsey Ferrentino. The couple met in 2016 when Ralf was cast in the play Ugly Lies The Bone, which had been written by Lindsey. They have been engaged since 2018.
"I met her when I was in a play she wrote with Kris Marshall. She came out to Guadeloupe for a month while I was filming and she wrote three films out there," he told The Mirror in February 2020.
"She's doing annoyingly well. If we were ever going to be a power couple I’d have to seriously up my game. Her career is exploding in a way that makes me both incredibly proud, and obscenely jealous."
Due to the nature of his role in Death in Paradise, Ralf spends a large amount of time filming in Guadeloupe. This was somewhat problematic for him during the pandemic, as it meant that he was unable to see his fiancée.
At the time, he told The Daily Star: "Americans can't travel anywhere so she can't come here. I haven't seen her since lockdown started - so like four months. The long and short of it is she's like, 'I just don't know if I'm going to be able to come - it doesn't look like Americans are going to be allowed to travel'.
"The long and short of it is I've not seen her for months and I might not be able to see her for a whole year. It's like being 14 again - my left hand looks like... Remember when you were 14 and you were like, 'Maybe, one day, I'll be able to touch a girl, but until then it's me and you lefty!'"
Will there ever be a Two Pints reunion?

Ever since it last appeared on our screens, viewers have been crying out for more episodes of Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps. The series originally ran between 2001 and 2011.
Ralf and co-star Will Mellor, who appeared on Strictly Come Dancing last year, are keen for a revival. The pair have written proposed scripts for a sequel series which they want to call Two Pints: Last Orders.
One person that's reportedly less keen is Sheridan Smith. Speaking on The Morning After With Paul Danan podcast in May 2020, Will said: "Sheridan just won't talk about it. She's not spoken to me in over three years now. It's like she just won't pick up the phone about it. There is just no point in going down that route.
"I don't know what happened, we last spoke about three, maybe four years ago and since then she won't reply to my calls or text messages at all. I wanted to be there but she's just not interested so there is no point in going there. We can't get a Two Pints reunion together without her."
Luckily for fans of Two Pints, it was reported last April that Sheridan is now keen to get the whole gang back together. A source told The Sun on Sunday: "In recent weeks she’s reached out to Will and Ralf, who are currently on the Two Pints Live! tour together, and started following them both on social media."
