A once-familiar face in BBC's long-running soap opera EastEnders is surprising punters working at a family newsagents in Coventry. Nitin Ganatra said some customers have done a double-take when they have spotted him behind the counter.
EastEnders legend Nitin, who played Masood in the soap, works at the corner shop owned by his brother in Coundon, in Coventry. “People do double-takes when I'm there helping my brother with the papers at 4.30 in the morning, and especially working in the shop. It's a bit bizarre," he said. "But it’s my family's business, so why would I not help out? It's normal to me.
“If you're visiting your family, you can't just expect to be served. You have to join in.”
