EastEnders legends look completely different as they reunite to support Tanya Franks in theatre – can you name them all?

EASTENDERS legends cut a completely different appearance to their onscreen characters when they reunited to support former cast mate, Tanya Franks.

Tanya, 55, announced that she had quit the role of Rainie Highway back in June after seven years on the BBC soap.

But once you’re a member of the Albert Square family it seems you always are, if this recent group snap is anything to go by.

Tanya captioned the picture by saying: “Fantastic having the amazing #eastenders family in last night to see #othello.”

She added: “Gorgeous to see their faces afterwards and spend time with them.”

But can you guess who everyone is?

Surrounded by her former cast mates following her performance in Othello at the National Theatre, Tanya looked pleased as punch.

Sat on one side of the table was actress Lorraine Stanley, best known for her role as Karen Taylor. Giving a thumbs up to the camera Lorraine looked a far cry from her onscreen character.

Ashley Byam, who plays Finlay Baker, was also part of the celebrations as was Matthew James Morrison, who plays drag artist Felix Baker.

Claire Norris was also part of the mini reunion and again, she too, looked completely different to her screen character Bernie.

But it doesn’t stop there. Tanya was also accompanied by Barbara Smith who played Ellie, a student from Startford, in 2019. And actress Balvinder Sopal, who starred as Suki Panesar, was also in tow but left before the picture was taken.
