EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick looks sombre as he films Lola's heartbreaking funeral scenes
ok.co.ukEastEnders star Jamie Borthwick, who plays grieving widower Jay Brown on the BBC One soap, has been spotted looking very sombre as he took a moment between filming scenes for Lola Pearce's funeral.
It's been a heartbreaking time for the Mitchell family in Albert Square, as Lola, 26, who is played by Danielle Harold, recently discovered her tumour had progressed and her cancer had reached an advanced stage.The character had been positive for the future up until that point in March, but her hopes were crushed as the doctors advised her she probably only had the rest of the year to live.
Since then, fans' worst fears were apparently confirmed as filming snaps showed a hearse driving through the Walford set with a beautiful floral display spelling out Lola in the back window.
Now Jay star Jamie has been seen filming for Lola's funeral scenes, as he wore a smart grey suit, complete with polished black shoes and a pink patterned tie.The snaps showed Jamie looking particularly dishevelled, as he grey out his beard and wore his strawberry blonde hair ruffled for the scenes.The actor also seemed to have sat in the makeup chair prior to his scenes, as he displayed dark marks under his eyes.
