Eastenders actress reveals love of fine architecture
EastEnders actress Jessie Wallace is to reveal her
love of fine architecture in a highbrow BBC show.
Wallace, who plays Kat Slater, extols the virtues of
the Hoover building in BBC3 series Dreamspaces.
A spokeswoman for the programme, to be shown on
November 9, told TV Plus: "Jessie talks passionately
about why she loves the building. She's a massive fan
of the art deco period. She really likes the toilets
which are particularly ornate and green.
"Jessie used to walk past the building every day when
she was at drama school, and loves the period. She has
lots of art deco features in her own home."
The imposing white property alongside the A40 in
Greenford, Middlesex, opened as the factory and
offices of the vacuum company in 1933. Recently part
of it has been taken over by Tesco supermarket.
