EastEnders star Lacey Turner is living The Good Life after setting up her own allotment.
And she is already bring in fresh eggs and flowers for co-stars.
She plans to hand out the grub to grateful foodies who have dubbed Lacey – who plays Stacey Slater in the BBC soap
– Barbara after the star of the hit BBC comedy starring Felicity Kendall and Richard Briars who quit their jobs to eke out a self-sufficient living from their suburban garden.
A BBC source revealed: “Lacey wants to start bringing produce from her garden and greenhouse and the cast are very pleased. The eggs are going down well. Adam Woodyatt is a very keen chef and has been particularly grateful.”
Lacey revealed her newly-found passion for gardening on social media but has named herself Charlie Dimmock – the braless Ground Force legend.
“I will show it in a few weeks when it’s looking beautiful, I think it’s not sure if it’s spring yet! I know the feeling f but this ignited a spark inside me to get all green fingered and grow things! Now I am no Charlie dimmock ( apart from being bra less ) I have never been successful in keeping anything alive other than children and animals!
“But with a greenhouse and an allotment I feel obliged ! So here it goes I have no idea if I have done it right and to be honest I fully expect nothing to grow but u can only live and learn! For Mother’s Day and my birthday I asked for seeds and bulbs.”
