ACTOR Dieter Brummer has taken that old showbiz saying of "don't give up your day job" literally.

After returning from a 10-year break to play a copper in Underbelly: A Tale Of Two Cities, the former Home & Away stud has returned to being a "construction maintenance worker", aka window-washer.

The occasional actor says he doesn't mind his blue-collar "plan B".

"The good part about it is I don't have to deal with people too much," Brummer said.

"If I was pulling beers I would have to put up with guys saying: 'Oh you're pulling beers now and you used to be in Underbelly.'"
