He became a household name playing the school bully Peter Rivers in the 1990s teen drama Heartbreak High.

Known for his long hair and edgy style, he was a heartthrob for many teenage girls during his acting heyday.

These days Scott Major, 48, is thriving behind the camera.

Last week Scott was spotted on the set of Neighbours where he works as a director for the long-running soap.

He looked unrecognisable, sporting long locks complemented by a full grey beard.

In 2022, Scott reflected on the announcement of Netflix’s 2022 reboot of the teen series Heartbreak High, where he reprised his role of Rivers.

Appearing in a personalised video on the app Cameo, he said: ‘I’m so happy they’re making it again and I hope that it captures the essence the original one captured.’

Scott also reflected on his memorable role, saying: ‘As Rivers I was cool and hip and I used to wear flannels with one arm and a hat with no peak. I guess I’m getting older – not that you’d notice because I don’t look much older.’
