Lindsey Coulson to depart from EastEnders

EastEnders News Team

The Carol Jackson actress is set to film her final scenes on EastEnders later this year.

“I have had a fantastic time playing the formidable Carol Jackson - however, although I’ll miss everything about EastEnders, I feel the time is right for me to move on," revealed Lindsey. " I’ve been involved in so many wonderful stories as Carol and now it’s time for me to play some different characters and tell some new ones”

Executive Producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins added: “EastEnders has always been so lucky to have an actress of Lindsey’s calibre in the company – but we always knew that it wasn’t indefinitely. We were thrilled when Lindsey signed for another year to play Carol’s breast cancer story – and Lindsey’s nuanced, brave and utterly real performance rightfully won her an award and praise from viewers, charities and women who have been through similar experiences to Carol. The door will always be open for Carol’s return and we wish Lindsey huge love and luck as she embraces new roles away from Walford”

Carol Jackson's exit storyline is being kept closely under wraps, butstay tuned for more details and exclusive content on the site nearer the time.
