EASTENDERS


Hywel Bennett to join EastEnders


Hywel Bennett as Jack Dalton in Albert SquareHywel Bennett is to join the cast of EastEnders in May to play Jack Dalton, a revered gangland boss who presides over London's East End.


Dalton, who will be central to a key storyline throughout the summer, is the real deal, a legendary face of the underworld who is both feared and respected.


Hywel says of his new role: "I've attempted almost everything in my marathon career, but have never tackled a soap before. I consider EastEnders to be the best there is and regard it as another notch on the bedpost."
