Award-winning EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick has assured fans that the aftermath of Lola Pearce\u2019s (Danielle Harold) death is far from over \u2013 and is set to lead to a \u2018huge\u2019 new plot in the future. <\/p>\n
Jamie, who won Best Actor at the Inside Soap Awards, made the intriguing promise when chatting to Metro.co.uk on the red carpet \u2013 and added that it will have a profound impact on a story that has already captured a nation\u2019s attention.<\/p>\n
\u2018There\u2019s some stuff which is coming up \u2013 I think it\u2019s going to be huge, it\u2019s going to be really meaningful and do this story even more justice than it already has done,\u2019 he said with a smile. \u2018Watch this space!\u2019<\/p>\n
It\u2019s bound to have a lot of eyes on it given how much acclaim the ongoing saga has won \u2013 not to mention the awards of the evening. <\/p>\n
It was named by the voting public as the top soap storyline of the year, with Danielle Harold taking home Best Actress, Jamie winning Best Actor and Lexi star Isabelle Brown declared as the Best Young Performer.<\/p>\n
Max Bowden was also named this year\u2019s Soap Superstar, and the soap overall won the top accolade, beating back Emmerdale, Coronation Street and Hollyoaks. <\/p>\n
On screen now, we are seeing struggling Jay become close to newcomer Nadine, who bears an uncanny resemblance to the late Lola. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Addressing the new development, Jamie went on: \u2018After the actual death and funeral, they kind of panned away from us which is good. <\/p>\n
\u2018People were like, we haven\u2019t had much aftermath, what\u2019s happening, here, there\u2019s been big hiatus, nothing. <\/p>\n
\u2018But we look into a bit more and the effects its really had \u2013 it\u2019s good stuff.\u2019 <\/p>\n
Heaping praise on actress Jazzy Phoenix, who plays Nadine, the actor enthused: \u2018She was great, she was really nice and she was aware of Danielle\u2019s space and didn\u2019t want to tread on anyone\u2019s toes or anything like that. <\/p>\n
\u2018She was brilliant on screen, we get on really well, we had a really good time.\u2019 <\/p>\n
But Jay is having the opposite of that, and will soon dabble with ketamine to try and take the edge off his grief. <\/p>\n
Will Nadine lead him completely off the rails ahead of Jamie\u2019s tantalisingly teased major story twist? <\/p>\n
