EastEnders icon June Brown allegedly asked her co-star for help ending her life before she died in 2022.

June, who played Albert Square’s chain-smoking legend Dot Cotton, died peacefully at her home in Surrey on 3 April 2022, aged 95.

However, Lord Michael Cashman, who played Dot’s friend Colin Russell, claimed she had discussed ending her life with him before her death.

The 75-year-old made these remarks on Friday while debating the Assisted Dying Bill in the House of Lords.
