EastEnders' Cheryl Fergison looks unrecognisable as she reunites with former co-star

Cheryl Fergison has been enjoying herself in London this week, where she made a rare red carpet appearance and also reunited with one of her former EastEnders co-stars.

The actor, 57 - who is best known for having played the late Heather Trott on the BBC show - has been visiting the capital city, sharing updates from the trip on Instagram.

This included sharing a selfie this evening of herself and pal Steve McFadden, 63 - who plays Phil Mitchell on EastEnders - posing together in front of Tower Bridge.

She wrote: "With my big brov. Yes folks it's Mr Steve McFadden". And she wrote to him: "Thank you for always caring for me and my family and for being so hospitable".

Yesterday, she had shared a selfie of herself stood in front of the landmark in the capital. She wrote in a caption that accompanied the photo: "It's only Tower Bridge and me".

Earlier this week, Cheryl - who grew up in the area - shared a photo of herself on the underground and teased that she felt like a tourist, with her now living in Lancashire.

She wrote: "Down the old smoke on the tube. It all feels a little different and I'm walking round like a tourist rather than someone born and bred here". She included a laughing emoji.
