Surprising old comrade in dodgy deals Mo Harris (Laila Morse) spoke to friends on Monday and revealed what he had been up to since he was last seen visiting in 2011.


Soon also Mo him in her plans for a charity calendar to raise money for the Bridge Street Market, and of course antics ensue.


Now, in a new interview shared with RadioTimes.com and other press, Swash spoke to what it was like to return to Walford, as well as what he looks back on fondly about his original tenure in Albert Square.

How did it feel to step back into Albert Square after almost sixteen years away and reprise the iconic role of Mickey Miller?


“It was great to go back. I was super honored to be asked back; it was so nice to see the whole new crew and the crew that was there the day I started. It felt like home.”


Has anything changed since you left or has it remained largely the same?


“Apart from the main set, everything is the same, down to the carpet on the floor, the nice lady on reception. It’s such a strange comfort, it’s like going back to your grandma’s house – it never changes!”


Did you find it easy to get back into the character of Mickey after so many years?

“I was so nervous to be back as I haven’t acted much since EastEnders, but it all came back straight away and it felt completely normal.”


What has Mickey been up to since we last saw him?


“Mickey has opened a number of eco-BnBs in the Cotswold and is doing well! He is also married with two children.”


What was it like filming with some of your former castmates again?


“Working with Laila (Morse) again has been an absolute pleasure. I’ve worked with her so much and she was a bit like my EastEnders mum, picking me up and taking me home!”


What was your reaction when you were asked to come back for a short period?

“I was honored to be asked back! There have been great people in EastEnders, so to be asked back was great.”


It seems like Mickey, as always, is up to no good with Big Mo. The pair have always had a strong relationship and have previously worked together on many dodgy deals. How would you sum up their relationship, and what was it like working with Laila Morse again?


“Big Mo is a terrible influence on Mickey. Mickey would do anything for Mo and she has him wrapped around her little finger. Working with Laila again was an absolute joy.”


Do you have any special memories from last time on the show?


“Looking back on working with Barbara Windsor, Wendy Richards, June Brown and the legend John Bardon, I was so lucky to work with these legends!”
