LINDA Robson has revealed she is eyeing a role on EastEnders to play terminally ill Lola Pearce's mum. Lola's mother has never been seen on-screen despite being mentioned multiple times, and Linda said she'd relish the role.
The Birds of a Feather actress and Loose Women star met Lola actress Danielle Harold at the National Television Awards and the pair hit it off.
Linda, 64, said: "I have actually been talking to EastEnders. "They are looking for Lola’s mum. She’s not very well is she? I don’t watch the soaps so I don’t know, but I met her at the NTAs the other day, and she said she would love me to play her mum." Linda was approached again at the awards bash by someone behind the scenes on the BBC soap and the actress confirmed her interest in heading to Albert Square.
She said: "I don’t know if it was the casting director who came up to me at the NTAs and said, 'How come you’ve never been on EastEnders?' "And I said, 'It’s because you ain’t ever f*****g asked me.' And he said, 'Well we’re asking you now.'
