EastEnders star Lacey Turner turns Bond Girl in a skintight gold catsuit
Updated 12:14pm on 4 Sep 2008
When producers told Lacey Turner she was to dress as a Bond Girl for a forthcoming episode of EastEnders she 'didn't think anything of it'.
Then they handed her a gold lamé catsuit, which was skin tight.
She told the TV Times that she was not impressed with the outfit, saying: 'I had to wear the gold catsuit, which I didn't particularly like!
Double oh no: Lacey Turner with co-star Elliot Jordan
Shaken and stirred: The actress was not thrilled with her Bond Girl costume
'The costume department held it up and asked me "Do you want to wear this?" and I said "If I have to". When I put it on, it was skin-tight and I thought "Oh my God!"'
She continued: 'I've never seen a Bond film in my life! When they said Bond theme, I didn't think anything of it, because I didn't know the films.
'Now that I realise they dress in gold catsuits, I'm not a fan!'
The actress, who plays Stacey Branning in the BBC soap, dressed up as a Bond girl for husband Bradley's 007-themed 21st birthday bash.
Actor Charlie Clements, who wore a white dinner jacket for the party, added: 'Bond girls don't tend to wear a lot, do they?'

I actually really enjoyed this particuar episode. I found their outfits more interesting than the storyline itself!

What? Call yourself an actress if you haven't heard of the Bond franchise? That's genuinely shocking. Doesn't she read?

My word this programme is diabolical, I switched off years ago. Sadly caught 5 minutes of it the other week, the acting seems to have declined even further and the storylines (when they're not being recycled) just get worse and worse. It doesn't even look like the actors believe in it anymore. It's got to be below Hollyoaks standards...and this is the BBC's flagship show?
