No comments On the EastEnders website, Lauren Branning – who’s played by Jacqueline Jossa – has recorded bonus clips entitled Lauren’s Diaries. In the clip, we see Lauren chatting to Cora – who’s played by Ann Mitchell – about her grandfather. Lauren asks, “What is it with this family, why can’t we just talk about things?” To which Cora replies, “What good did talking about things ever do?!” She then adds, “Your mum, everything’s pent up with your mother, that’s what makes her so tetchy.” Tanya has of course been diagnosed with cervical cancer, and presently, only Lauren knows about it.
