Another new character for EE

Funeral director Les is being upgraded to full time character status and his wife is joining, too

hope they're good

looks delightful - can not wait.

maybe they are getting ready to clear the dead wood actors in E20.

Plus the funeral company indicates there may be sons.

What's great about this character is he's supposed to have been around Walford since late 1970s and has mentioned burying Pete Beale so he gives the show a bit of unexpected history.

i never new that alex - delightful - bit of history for hardcore fans.

this is what EE needs to remind and build on - proper strong actors that have meaning.
