Cheryl Fergison has branded EastEnders 'out of touch' and has slammed BBC bosses for their decision to kill off her legendary character, Heather Trott.
The actress, 56, played the loveable character for five years from 2007 and she quickly viewers hearts as Shirley Carter's best friend and an unlucky-in-love legend.
It has now been over a decade since Cheryl's much-loved character was murdered by non-other than Ben Mitchell - and the former soap star still feels as though the writers' decision to kill her off in such a brutal way was rather harsh.
