Former Eastenders star Sean Maguire has apologised for his short lived pop career.

Maguire released two albums in the nineties and was a constant on the whole Smash Hits scene for a few years.

Maguire told Metro: “I feel bad for the people of Britain that I put them through it but I’m hoping, over time, they may forgive me.”

When asked if playing the role of a costumed hero for BBC’s Kröd Mändoon was difficult, he said: “Everything is a stretch for me.

“I’m wildly unskilled at what I do. Part of me thinks: ‘Why do I think I can pull this off?’ but the part of me that has to pay the mortgage thinks: ‘Just get on with it!’ I’ll just keep going until someone discovers I’m no good.”
