Dido also appeared in films such as Black Beauty and First Knight and had a recurring role on EastEnders.

Elisabeth and Dido (is that her real name?) talk about heart-wrenching storylines, kissing Richard Gere, NOT being a nepo baby and being so cold on set you need to chew ice to stop your breath from showing. Dido also talks - for the first time - about why she left the series so suddenly.
