The 51-year-old rose to fame as a child star in 1989, joining the cast of the High School comedy, Saved by The Bell, where she played Jessie Spano for four years.
Now over three decades later, Elizabeth Berkley looks like she's barely aged a day.
At a fan convention, Elizabeth posed alongside controversial Doctor Who star John Barrowman.
The pair embraced whilst then comically posing in the pics uploaded to John's Instagram.
He wrote: 'I had no idea @elizberkley knew who I was.
'She is iconic and an ally. We chatted, laughed and hit some poses. Then the B**** pushed me down the invisible stairs! A new friendship has erupted.'
Controversial John was sacked from ITV's Dancing On Ice in 2021 when historical sexual misconduct claims surfaced.
He was accused of flashing at the cast on Doctor Who and its spin-off Torchwood where he appeared as Captain Jack Harkness between 2005 and 2011.
Elizabeth is no stranger to controversy herself, after leaving Saved By The Bell to try to break into film, she got the role of Nomi Malone in the problematic 1995 film Showgirls.
The saucy film which featured extensive nudity was widely slammed by critics, but over the years has gone on to become a cult classic.
Star of hit nineties sitcom looks unrecognisable in popular drama - but can you guess who it is?
Elizabeth, who has a PhD, went on to become a bestselling author with her self-help book, as well as appearing on the West End and Broadway and in TV shows like CSI: Miami.
Fans took to the comments gushing over the pair, one user said: 'Two of my favorite celebrities, this is the collaboration of talent I've always wanted to see'
'Jessie Spano X Captain Jack!' chimed another.
'Love her!! Awesome pictures,' added a third.
Other TV shows Elizabeth has appeared on include Titus and most recently the hit Netflix show Cobra Kai starring Ralph Macchio.
The mom-of-one shares son Sky with actor, fashion designer and painter Greg Lauren.
He is also the the nephew of the world renown fashion designer Ralph Lauren.
Greg and Elizabeth tied the knot in 2003 after the duo met at a dance class three years prior.

The 1% Club's tricky alphabet question knocks out a whopping 18 players – but would you have been one of them?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE 1% Club's questions once again proved to be too much for most after one query wiped out almost a fifth of the studio. During one particularly savage round, 18 hopefuls were sent home when they failed to spot the correct sequences of letters. Did you manage to get it right? Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Lee Mack was stunned by how many people got knocked out Credit: ITV 5 There were four options to choose from Credit: ITV 5 The question knocked out 18 people Credit: ITV 5 The tricky question was a brainteaser Credit: ITV The jaw-dropping moment unfolded in series two, episode five of the hit ITV quiz show, where host Lee Mack watched in disbelief as a simple-sounding question exposed just how tricky the game can be. Players were shown four words and asked to spot the one that does not contain three consecutive letters from the alphabet. The options were, Unopenable, Understandable, Unquestionable, and Undefineable. It might look easy on the surface, but spotting sequences like 'DEF' or 'RST' hidden in the words proved harder than expected. Players had just 30 seconds to examine the words and pick out the correct answer. The answer turned out to be C, 'Unquestionable'. ' Unopenable' contains 'NOP', 'Undefineable' includes 'DEF', and 'Understandable' also hides 'RST'. That left as the only one without a consecutive alphabetical trio, making it the right answer. Eighteen contestants failed to spot it, knocking them out of the game in one fell swoop. The shock exit had jaws dropping in the studio. Host Lee Mack kept his cool, but couldn't hide his surprise as players who had breezed through earlier rounds were taken out by the sneaky wording. The question came late in the game, reserved for the sharpest minds — but it still managed to trip up even the most confident contestants. Previously, a whopping 20 players were wiped out in a brutally challenging picture question. The result of the 30% question changed the face of the game, shedding half of the remaining current players. Lee read aloud to the group: "How many RIGHT FOOTPRINTS can you see in the sand." An image was then displayed showcasing an assortment of footprints in the sand. Players were then given 30 seconds to differentiate between the right and left feet. The image then turned the eight right feet green in order to correctly display which of the options the players should have been looking at. The 1% Club airs on ITV1 and ITVX.

I've dubbed Lilibet the ‘jigsaw girl', Meghan Markle's bizarre birthday photos shows exactly why, says expert
PRINCESS Lilibet has been hailed as a 'jigsaw girl' following her fourth birthday photo. On Wednesday, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle celebrated her birthday - with the duchess sharing two photos of the young tot. 7 Meghan Markle shared this photo of Princess Lilibet for her fourth birthday this week Credit: Instagram/Meghan 7 The Duke and Duchess of Sussex like to protect the privacy of Lilibet and Archie by concealing their faces Credit: Instagram 7 One of the only photos we've seen of Lilibet's face was her first birthday picture Credit: PA 7 On The Sun's Royal Exclusive show Charles Raw and Sarah Hewson spoke to host Bronte Coy, with Charles calling Lilibet a 'jigsaw girl' Credit: Supplied One showed Princess Lilibet as a newborn, while the second was a picture of Lilibet in the present day. However, both snaps showed a partial view of Princess Lilibet's face for privacy. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, former Sun Royal Correspondent and author Charles Rae discussed the intimate post, with host Bronte Coy saying it showed 'almost Lilibet's whole face.' He said: 'I like your definition of almost the full face. 'I'm dubbing Lilibet the jigsaw girl because over the four years, all we've seen is an ankle, an arm, a bit of a nose, maybe a forehead.' He added: 'I'm all for them protecting their children. 'I've got no problems with that as well. 'But, you know, this sort of half bits of the child, it doesn't do anything for me.' Royal Correspondent Sarah Hewson pointed out that the last time we had a proper portrait of Lilibet was three years ago to mark her first birthday. She shared: 'Apart from that, we haven't really seen her face. We see the backs of them. Meghan shares rare video of Lilibet BEEKEEPING with pair in matching outfits 'We do know so little about Lilibet because they moved to California. 'They are very protective over their children's privacy and they have every right to do so. I'm dubbing Lilibet the jigsaw girl because over the four years, all we've seen is an ankle, an arm, a bit of a nose, maybe a forehead Charles Rae 'We know that their safety is a huge issue.' We last got a glimpse of Princess Lilibet in a little beekeeper suit, which was shared by mum Meghan on Instagram - but it was taken from behind. 7 Meghan recently shared this photo of Princess Lilibet in a beekeeping suit Credit: Instagram/meghan GUARDED FAMILY Bronte continued: 'They're releasing bits of the kids, but in a very guarded way still. 'But both Harry and Meghan have been accused in the past of hypocrisy in this area. 'As a parent, of course, I do understand it is completely a prerogative what you share of your children online. 'They have said things in the past about their privacy. 'And then now Meghan having launched her Instagram in January, she has been releasing more and more of the kids, which is her decision.' 7 Meghan shared this photo of Archie from behind for his birthday Credit: Instagram Sarah claimed it is 'fair play' what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex share on Instagram now that they are no longer senior working royals. The couple famously stepped down in 2020 and now live in the star-studded Montecito California, in a £12million mansion with Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four. Sarah added: 'With Harry and Meghan, of course, we'd all love to see more because we're really interested in those little children. 'But I think it's entirely fair that they say, 'you know what, it's on our terms'. 'And that's what this is, very much on their terms, Meghan on her own platform, the images they choose to curate.' KATE AND WILLS' VIEWS 7 The Prince and Princess of Wales recognise George, Charlotte and Louis 'play a public role', according to experts Credit: Getty She pointed out that Prince William and Princess Kate may have a different approach with their own kids, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven. The royal expert explained: 'I think with the Waleses, they recognise that their children are going to play a part in public life. 'And they are being funded by the public as well. 'And they are going to take on significant roles in the future of the country and the monarchy. 'And therefore they recognise that they need to share. 'But they're also quite careful about when they share those moments of their children's lives. 'And there are pretty stringent restrictions on what can be shown and what can't.' Charles agreed, saying: 'You know, their children are eventually going to be on the royal treadmill. 'But they are very cautious with the times that the children have access to the public, or the public have access to them.'
