He also appeared as himself on ITV gameshow ''All Star Family Fortunes'' alongside his older brother and fellow actor Ryan, who plays Jason Grimshaw in the soap opera, ''Coronation Street''.

Thomas' final episode was broadcast 20 May 2009. Following his departure from his most famous role, Thomas signed on for his third appearance on daytime soap ''Doctors'', this time playing a character called Ben Hamilton. The episode aired on 26 May 2009. It was announced on 21 May 2009 that Thomas had landed the role of Adam Barton in the long-running ITV soap opera, ''Emmerdale'' and would appear on screens from July 2009. In 2010, Thomas was involved in an incident in which he made homophobic comments to an ''Emmerdale'' fan. When student Ricky Platts introduced himself, Thomas proceeded to brand Platts as a "gay boy" and a "queer", of which Platts also gained video footage. Thomas later made a public apology for his comments and an LGBT activist called for the serial's producers to take "decisive action" against Thomas. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adam Thomas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
