It’s amazing for me to come home, but for Bex, it’s an absolutely devastating time because she’s lost her dad.

I have always watched the show, and I was born in February 1985, so I’m the same age as EastEnders! It’s so cool to be playing a character like Vicki – we think we know her, but a lot has changed. I can’t wait for all the Albert Square drama ahead.” Vicki’s joined by her family (Credit: BBC) Vicki’s family Vicki will arrive back in Walford with a new man – Ross – and his son, Joel. Sharon and Alfie will be taken aback to see Vicki moved on from Spencer, but it seems she’s serious about this new chap. The Bill and Holby City actor Alex Walkinshaw will be playing the character of Ross, with newcomer Max Murray playing Joel. Alex commented: “I am really excited as I’ve had so many friends on EastEnders throughout the years, and I always hear lovely things about it. The show is top draw drama and I can’t wait to get stuck in. Ross is a decent, hardworking family man, he always puts family first, and he is very in love with Vicki, but it’s not always plain sailing.” Max added: “It’s an absolute privilege and honour to be joining such a wonderful production full of a lovely cast and crew. I’m really looking forward to introducing Joel to EastEnders viewers and telling his story.” Read more: EastEnders ‘death by bathtub’ and Sonia’s reaction best ending EastEnders usually airs Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One.
