Filmed at the same studios, Michael says the BBC hospital drama brought back “amazing memories” of Albert Square because of this reason.
He said: “It brought back amazing memories because EastEnders was an amazing time in my career. It really established me.

“It was lovely to be part of Holby and I feel sad for them that it’s coming to an end [later this year].
“I had some great friends who were in it back in the day, like Lisa Faulkner and Angela Griffin, and we used to sing in the bar after work.”
