Think back to 2007… it’s crazy how far away that year seems to us now, it honestly feels like a fever dream.
Slap bang in the noughties, how could we forget 2007’s unmissable moments like Celeb Big Brother 5 and the start of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
THE MEMORIES.
Would you believe it: 2007 was also the year that BBC’s sitcom Outnumbered first aired on telly, which had Hugh Dennis and Clare Skinner as the heads of the Brockman household.
Not forgetting the stars who played the roles of the iconic children - Tyger who was 11 and played Jake, Dan who was seven and played Ben and Ramona who was five and played Karen.
Outnumbered concluded with its fifth series in 2014 and we bet you'll be surprised over how much they’ve changed and what they’re up to now.
As we're totes obsessed with catching up with our faves here's what Daniel Roche is doing now.
So, who did Daniel Roche play on Outnumbered?
Back in 2007, Daniel played the cheeky and mischievous (but totes hilarious) middle-child, Ben Brockman.
What does Daniel Roche look like now?
It's been a good few years since Outnumbered was on TV and it' safe to say that Daniel has changed A LOT. You would barely recognise him.
Sharing a photo alongside his onscreen siblings in 2021, Dan wrote, "No more COVID keeping the fam apart".
We all love a good reunion, let's be honest.
Even in 2016, Dan changed quite a bit from his early Outnumbered days. Here's a photo of him back on set of the Outnumbered Christmas special.
How old is Daniel Roche?
Danile Roche was born on 14 October 1999, meaning he is 22 years old.

A quick reminder of why we love Ben Brockman
Daniel Roche, who was raised in North London, even got a nod at the British Comedy Awards in 2009 in the category of Best Male Comedy Newcomer.
He was robbed, tbh. Here's a prime example of why he should have won...
THE TALENT. We love to see it. What really set Outnumbered apart from other similar family comedies was the fact that Daniel largely improvised his lines, as was also the case with Tyger and Ramona (wow).
Does Daniel Roche still act?
He sure does.
Soon after his Outnumbered stint, in 2010, Dan snagged the role of William Brown in the CBBC revival of Just William, which was great fun if you caught it.
Dan, also, got a recurring role in Dani Harmer's show Dani's House.
Speaking of Dani Harmer, here's what her fellow Tracy Beaker castmates are up to now...

What's Daniel Roche doing now?
According to his Instagram, Dan is still in London. You can follow him on the 'gram - @bouwulf.
Most of his posts are of a typical 22 year old having a wild time with their pals. Dan also has pictures of himself looking super cool in his rugby uniform and we're not mad at it, tbh.
As for uni? He enrolled at Kings College in London and played rugby there, too.
It is unclear what Dan is/was studying or whether he is planning to pursue a career in acting as an adult. His last on screen performance was back in 2016 when he starred in the Outnumbered Christmas special. As it was such a long time ago, who knows if Dan's interests still lie within the realm of acting...
He may be an adult now, but we all remember him as the cheeky Ben Brockman.
Let's hope he makes a return to the telly soon. Finger's crossed.
