Sheridan Smith was spotted throwing her friend Charley Webb into a pool during their fun girls’ vacation on Monday.
The 43-year-old actress showed off her bust in a blue bikini as she showed off her assets, while holding a drink in her other hand.
Meanwhile, Emmerdale star Charley, 36, who played soap favourite Debbie Dingle in the ITV soap from 2010 to 2016, wore a black bikini top and denim shorts as she entered the pool.
Charley shared the hilarious clip on Instagram and wrote: “We don’t mess around. Go big or go home.”
Sheridan, who recently split from her boxer boyfriend Dave ‘Rocky’ Ryan, and Charley went on a trip last week and have not shared the location with fans.

This comes after it was reported that Sheridan had “signed a deal” to return for the final episode of Gavin & Stacey.
The 42-year-old actress is said to be joining the iconic cast for the Christmas special as James’ on-screen sister Rudi Smith, which will mark the end of the beloved sitcom.
Despite recent reports that Sheridan may not be involved, sources working at the BBC have been told that informal talks have already taken place with the star, according to The Mirror.
Earlier this month, sources close to the award-winning actress told MailOnline that there have been “no talks” about a return to the much-loved BBC comedy, which James, 45, and co-writer Ruth Jones, 57, confirmed last month would return for a final instalment on Christmas Day.
But now it looks like things might have taken a turn and there could be hope for a legendary reunion for the books.
“The script for Gavin & Stacey: The Finale features all of the main characters from the series, including Smithy’s sister Rudi. Nothing has been signed and talks are still ongoing, especially since no filming date has been set,” the source told the publication.
‘But every effort is being made to ensure the entire cast is there, and in the coming weeks the production team hopes to confirm everyone’s availability.
“Sheridan and James are still friends. They recently met at the Variety Club Awards and got on really well. So we’re hopeful she’ll be able to take part.”

The TV source added that Sheridan did not appear in the 2019 Christmas special episode because her character was “not part of the story,” although it is a “different story” this time around.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Sheridan and the BBC for comment.
Sheridan played Ruth “Rudi” Smith, known for her tumultuous relationship with James’ character Smithy, as well as her improvised raps, and is a cult favorite among fans.
The actress dated James for two years between 2007 and 2009 and the pair are believed to be on good terms.
The two attended the Variety Club Showbusiness Awards in late April, where James received the award for outstanding global achievement in broadcasting, acting and comedy.
James and Ruth confirmed the comedy’s return on social media with a post featuring the creators holding a script titled Gavin and Stacey: The Finale earlier this month.
Fans will finally find out whether or not Smithy and Nessa end up together and, potentially, find out what happened on that famous fishing trip.
Unlike Sheridan, the show’s main stars have been contacted to ensure their diaries are free to film the final episode, which will air on BBC1 on Christmas Day.
Speaking about her excitement for the comedy’s final hurrah on her new podcast with EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy, Joanna, who plays Stacey Shipman, said: ‘I’m so excited to see the gang again and start filming, and I can’t wait to find out if Smithy has said yes. I can’t wait to find out what’s happening to everyone.
“I’m going to have to keep that script out of your little hands, but yeah, we’re going to be able to review it on our show at Christmas and I’m going to be really upset if you’re not sitting there on Christmas Day watching me.”

Mother-of-one Sheridan, who recently split from her boxer boyfriend Dave “Rocky” Ryan, was dealt a blow last month when it was revealed her new West End show, Opening Night, would close two months early.
The musical, which depicted Sheridan’s character going through a harrowing mental crisis, debuted in March with an initial run scheduled to run through July.
However, the program ended abruptly and will now conclude on May 18, two months earlier than expected.
Shortly after the announcement, Sheridan said: “I feel bad for the team and all the work they’ve done, but I’m at that age now where I want to be challenged. I want to do new things; I don’t want to do the same old boring things. I would do it again in a heartbeat, so I have no regrets.”
He added to the Sunday Times that some people have loved it, explaining: “It’s kind of a cult following, and the original film was panned when it came out, so this may not be the end.”
The in-demand actress had already received praise months earlier for her role in the Paramount+ series The Castaways, in which she overcame her fear of water to star in the thriller.
