EastEnders fans stunned as a HUGE West Ham United star makes a surprise cameo as part of the soap's 40th Anniversary celebrations
EastEnders fans were treated to a touch of star power during Wednesday's episode, as a beloved Premier League star made a surprise appearance as part of Billy Mitchell's stag party.
Billy (played by Perry Fenwick) is set to tie the knot with longtime love Honey next week, and in the episode, viewers saw the groom watch the message from Jarrod, who offered his best wishes for the couple ahead of their big day. The sensational storyline, designed to entice audiences back to the BBC's flagship show after a steady decline, sees an explosion rip through the fictional pub, whose landladies have included Peggy Mitchell – played by the late Dame Barbara Windsor – and Anita Dobson's Angie Watts. As well as the Christmas Day episode in 1986 which saw 'Dirty' Den serve his wife, Angie, with divorce papers rather than a turkey (watched by a record 30million people), and Kat Slater's 2001 bombshell when she revealed to her 'sister' Zoe that she was, in fact, her mother.
