A list movie star Will Smith has revealed that he loves British soap Eastenders and admitted that he would love to do a cameo on it one day.

Will has revealed that whilst he was promoting his movie Seven Pounds in the UK, he came across the BBC soap and was gripped.

Will told The Sun:

“I was just chilling in my hotel and EastEnders was on TV. I didn’t even know what it was, but I literally could not stop watching it.

“It was like a week’s worth of episodes in one. Before I knew it, all I had done was get room service and waste a whole afternoon watching this show I’d never heard of!

“It was so real and gritty. American soaps are all about the beautiful people and being cheesy. This soap had everything.

“There was fighting, people sleeping around – it had it all going on! I’m a bit busy but when things quieten down I’d love to do a cameo. I could make a big entrance in the pub, as you guys call it, and be like: ‘Hey, girl let’s take this outside.’ ”

Will also pleaded with BBC bosses to begin showing the soap again on BBC America, so he can watch it at hom.

He pleaded:

“If the BBC boys are reading this, sort it out, man and start showing it again! Get it back on our TV screens.”
