EastEnders actress Gillian Taylforth has opened up about the moment she was told her character Kathy Beale was being killed off.

The 64-year-old was part of a number of groundbreaking storylines since her first appearance in 1985, including her harrowing rape at the hands of James Willmott-Brown and romance with Phil Mitchell.
