Fans may recognise the star from Holby City and Emmerdale
EastEnders has shared its first look at Patsy Kensit’s character ahead of her Walford debut in the New Year following the news of her daughter's deteriorating health.
After a series of troubling symptoms, Lola recently discovered that she has terminal cancer, and despite an emergency operation, she was later told that doctors could do nothing more to help her. Speaking of joining the show, Patsy said: “I’m so excited to be visiting Walford for this storyline. It has always been a dream of mine to appear in EastEnders. The cast, producers, writers and crew have been wonderful, and I’ve had a ball. Thank you so much for having me.”
Similarly, EastEnders executive producer Chris Clenshaw explained: “We’re delighted to welcome the wonderfully talented Patsy to the EastEnders family. She’s the perfect fit to take on the role of such a long-awaited character that we know very little about. Softly spoken and measured, on one hand Emma is the very opposite of her long lost daughter, Lola.”
