Paramount+ has released the first-look images of Only Fools and Horses star Nicholas Lyndhurst appearing in the new Frasier reboot.
The actor was confirmed as joining the cast of the hit US comedy series revival back in January.
Lyndhurst plays Alan Cornwall, who has been teased as an old college friend of Dr Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer).
Fans of the show have now been treated to a first glimpse at his character in the teaser image.

Lyndhurst is seen in character as Alan, enjoying a pint with Grammer's Frasier and fellow newcomer Toks Olagundoye, who plays Olivia, head of the psych department at an Ivy League university.
According to Deadline, Olivia and Alan frequently butt heads within the psychology department, with Alan resenting the younger Olivia's seniority over him.
"The two of them disagree on just about everything, but they both admire Frasier - and each hopes to use him to further their own aims," says the publication of the characters' dynamic.

The character of Freddy was recast for the reboot, with Cutmore-Scott stepping into the role.
He's seen sitting with his dad on the sofa in one promotional shot and alongside his dad and cousin David (Anders Keith) in another image.
