Former Eastenders actor, Alex Ferns has complained about the difficulty to find other work since playing the role of Trevor Morgan on the show.

Alex told Daily Record: “It’s a tough one, although I really loved doing EastEnders it has been hard to get seen for stuff because of that character.

“That character was so imbedded in the public imagination it is very hard to move out of it. In theatre and film, I’m definitely not seen as a soap actor. I get auditions and I’m seen for everything, really good stuff.

“But for television, I’m just waiting for someone to have more imagination and cast me in something to break the mould of Trevor. But it’s been very hard to break the stigma of Trevor.”
