Barbara Windsor and Pam St. Clement have joined ‘EastEnders: Back to Ours’.
The legendary actresses, who played love rivals Peggy Mitchell and Pat Butcher on the BBC One soap, will join each other on the sofa as they take a walk down memory lane for the new online series.
Barbara said: "I had such great fun filming this with Pam. At times we completely forgot we were being filmed and we got terribly carried away, in fact we got quite outrageous! It was such a lovely afternoon, we giggled for hours in fact we didn’t want it to finish."
The show will give fans and stars a chance to look back at some of the most memorable storylines in ‘EastEnders’ history while stars from past and present share their memories and behind the scenes stories in celebration of it’s 30th anniversary.
While Barbara is set to return to Albert Square for one episode during the special anniversary week next month, Pam – who returned as Pat during Ian Beale’s (Adam Woodyatt) flashback for a Comic Relief sketch earlier this year – will be looking on from the side-lines as her character passed away in 2012 after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
She said of the project: "What fun – not only catching up with Babs but being surrounded by friends and crew from the ‘EastEnders’ production team – it was like coming home!"
Other characters confirmed to take part in ‘Back to Ours’ include Adam Woodyatt (Ian Beale) and Laurie Brett (Jane Beale) and Shane Richie (Alfie Moon) and Jessie Wallace (Kat Moon).
The series is set to launch on BBC iPlayer on January 27.
