EastEnders fans were left stunned recently when an iconic extra – Tracy the Barmaid – featured in an interview on BBC One’s The One Show.
Jane Slaughter has played Tracey since 1985 – when the soap began, and featured in a chat with presenter and Strictly Come Dancing star Ritchie Anderson to talk about the BBC’s new project 15 Seconds of Fame.
As part of the channel’s century celebrations, the company is opening up the opportunity for members of the public to become extras in their favourite TV shows for ’15 seconds of fame’.
Several TV programmes are up for grabs to potentially be featured on, which will entail specific roles if you manage to be chosen.
They include: announcing that the ‘voting is now open’ on Strictly; ordering a drink on EastEnders; lying down as a patient on Casualty; becoming an alien on Doctor Who; making a sound effect on The Archers; or doing some gardening on Gardeners’ World.
