A beloved icon on EastEnders has a rather famous brother who even helped land her a huge acting role
Laila Morse is best known for playing Mo Harris - making her debut way back in 2000. As the loud-mouthed elder stateswoman of the Slater clan, Mo has become one of the soap’s iconic and beloved characters.
Gary rose to fame starring in films including Bram Stoker's Dracula, Immortal Beloved, Sid & Nancy and Harry Potter as Sirius Black. She told Loose Women: "My big brother wrote and directed Nil by Mouth. He just wanted something raw. He was with a friend and he just said, 'she could do that'. I just looked at him and went what? I can't do that.
The two are very close to each other, with the siblings spending Christmas Day together at Gary's California home in 2018.
