‘70s heartthrob singer turned actor David Essex has revealed that when his character Eddie Moon leaves Walford, there will be “lots of tears.”

He added that the storyline for Eddie’s exit from the Square is “emotional and soul-baring” as well as “challenging and interesting”.

He said, “Let’s put it this way – there were lots of tears during one of my final scenes at the boxing gym.

“It was very powerful, and myself and the other Moon boys were crying our eyes out.

“The emotional and soul-baring things that Eddie has had to deal with have made it so challenging and interesting for me.

“Great credit has to go to the show’s executive producer, Bryan Kirkwood. They’ve given me some brilliant stuff to do.”

With Eddie set to realise that Vanessa Gold (Zoe Lucker) and his own son Michael Moon (Steve John Shepherd) have been plotting his demise for months, David admitted playing such a troubled soul was an “all-consuming” experience.

He added to Inside Soap magazine, “It was a bundle of mixed emotions when I was filming my farewell, really.

“’EastEnders’ is an all-consuming programme so it’ll be nice to get a bit of my life back.

“But at the same time, I’m going to miss the friends I’ve made there, and the wonderful actors I’ve had the privilege of working with.”

However, the look can be fairly difficult to pull off unless you’re a stick thin model, so we’ve found a way to get your fashion fix and your hunger fix for a fraction of the cost of a real Stella. Courtesy of Apollinas. Ingredients: Directions Heat oven to 350°F. Butter two 8?, 9? or 10? round cake pans, line the bottoms with greaseproof paper, butter again, and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.Using an electric mix, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high until fluffy – this will take around 2 to 3 minutes.  Mix in the grated zest of the oranges and lemons.  Beat in the vanilla, then the eggs one at a time.Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions and the milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixtur...
