Tamzin Outhwaite is "loving" working on radio because she is able to go to work makeup-free and in "loungewear".
The former ‘EastEnders’ star bowed out of the BBC One soap last month when her character Mel Owen was run over by a lorry and killed, and she has gone on to land a role on a BBC Radio 4 drama series, which she is enjoying despite working seven consecutive days.
She wrote on Twitter: "Day 7 in a row without a day off doing a radio drama series @BBCRadio4 & although I’m really looking forward to Friday as a rest day , I’m loving it!
"Being able to go to work in loungewear with no make up & hair is a joy. #greatfaceforradio (sic)"
Last week, Tamzin admitted she had been "run ragged" since departing the soap, but is "happy".
And she joked her life has turned into an episode of BBC sitcom ‘Motherland’ – which stars Anna Maxwell Martin as working mum Julia – since leaving Walford.
She wrote on Twitter: "Meant to say for the past 2wks my life has become an episode of Motherland,just much less funny. 2 school runs in, voice over next, then across town to read through, back for 2 school pick ups,check on recovering Dad,dinner & attack the washing pile #runraggedbuthappy (sic)"
Following her on-screen ‘EastEnders’ exit two weeks ago, Tamzin admitted she "couldn’t feel more proud" of her work on the show.
She tweeted: "Right … brand new day
Thank you so much for all the love…
I could not have relished playing Mel any more and I could not feel more proud.
Here’s to the next 21 years of life, the next job, the next chapter.
Happy Friday people. (sic)"
