Brian May's wife Anita Dobson is joined by close friends Carol Vorderman, Duncan Bannatyne and his wife Nigora as she celebrates her 75th birthday with dinner at Scott's


The EastEnders star was joined by her rocker husband Brian May as they dined with friends including Carol Vorderman, Duncan Bannatyne and his wife Nigora.

Anita boosted her petite frame with a pair of classic black court shoes and carried her essentials in a red silk pattern clutch. But despite having fond memories of her time on the series and filming the famous scene in which Den (Lesley Grantham) served her with divorce papers in 1986, Anita said she believes that she is too old to make a comeback. More than 30 million viewers tuned in on Christmas Day 1986 to watch husband Den (Leslie Grantham) serve her with divorce papers and it remains one of the most-watched broadcasts ever, just behind the 1966 World Cup final, the funeral of Princess Diana and the 1969 documentary about the royal family.
