EastEnders star Laura Doddington reveals she nearly quit acting for a VERY different career path before landing her role on the soap
The actress, 44, has fast become a fan favourite as Nicola Mitchell in the BBC soap, with her character's historic affair causing huge fireworks in Albert Square this week.
In tense scenes earlier this month, Nicola confessed she'd killed Harry's girlfriend Shireen, in a bid to hide that Zack Hudson is actually Barney's real father. Laura is set to grace the red carpet for this year's Soap Awards, after landing a nomination for Best Newcomer opposite Jacob Roberts as Corrie's Kit Green, Emmerdale's Shebz Miah as Kammy Hadiq and Hollyoaks star Isabelle Smith as Frankie Osborne. And the public has a tough choice when it comes to Villain of the Year with Calum Lill (Joel Deering, Coronation Street), Navin Chowdhry (Nish Panesar, EastEnders), Ned Porteous (Joe Tate, Emmerdale) and Tyler Conti (Abe Fielding, Hollyoaks) to choose from.
