An EastEnders actress who previously stated she would take “any job” has embarked on a new endeavor after failing to find acting jobs.
EastEnders According to reports, Cheryl Fergison, who portrayed Heather Trott on the BBC serial opera until her character was brutally killed in 2012, found it difficult to maintain her acting career.
As a favor to a friend who owns the venue, she is now offering tickets to an event named Cheryl’s Special £15 Weekend at incredibly low costs. She is offering a delectable dinner, which includes a starter, main course, and side dish, along with a two-hour singing performance by her, for just £15. This is a move that will thrill anyone who is dealing with the cost of living problem.
The Great Fortune House, a Chinese eatery in Blackpool that is commonly recognized for its unlimited buffet, will host the event. A curry, sweet and sour egg-fried rice, or a meal with green pepper and black bean sauce will be served after the guests have had their first option of soup (sweetcorn flavor for vegetables and chicken or crabmeat with sweetcorn for everyone else).
Egg fried rice, boiling rice, chips, and plain noodles are among the available sides. For those who are prepared to spend an additional £2, they can be served with beansprouts. One fan teased her on social media, saying, “Girl’s gotta eat but come on how the mighty have fallen Hev!” in response to her plan.
Cheryl also mentioned that tickets don’t need to be reserved in advance. “Can’t wait, we’re coming!” a fan inquired. “Just turn up, we will make you welcome,” she said in response to the question, “How do we book?”
It’s not the only lucrative endeavor Cheryl has lately unveiled.
In addition, she is asking a staggering £50 for her original EastEnders scripts from her time on the show, plus an additional £5 for shipping.
It comes after she offered supporters £5 each, plus delivery, to get signed pictures from her time in Walford.
In an open and intimate video, Cheryl, whose character as Heather was well-liked by fans at the time, clarified her financial difficulties.
“What I want to put out is the terrible misconception by the general public that we are all rich,” she yelled.
“That is not even close to the truth. I left EastEnders in 2012, so I’ve been gone for over 13 years—in fact, longer.
“I’ve done jobs in between and I’ve done panto, I’m doing it this year but the jobs are kind of like… they’re continuous, they’re not like being in a soap all the time.”
She cautioned: “Unless you’re someone like George Clooney or an A-lister American star that gets millions for their films, it’s very difficult – in inverted commas – to be rich.”
On TikTok, she also wrote: “Some people don’t realize that we have rent and expenses to pay just like everyone else. “Oh, are you not acting anymore?” people ask. You’re not doing that anymore?’ and they don’t understand that we still need to pay our bills and have a roof over our heads, so we’ll do whatever to sort of keep that continuing.”
