Privacy NoticeEastEnders star Natalie Cassidy, well-known for playing Sonia Fowler in the soap, is taking a brief hiatus from the drama of Albert Square to embark on an exciting new project. The popular BBC actress has been snapped up by Channel 4 for an intriguing four-part documentary series called “What’s The Big Deal? ” where she’ll delve into the nation’s favourite household products that have become staples in British homes. This follows Channel 4’s successful exploration into the world of air fryers. An insider spilled the beans to The Sun: “Natalie will be taking a short break, just like many of her co-stars do when they have another project. Bosses always try to let stars spread their wings and if they can make it work with the often punishing soap schedule then they’ll do it.” They added, “Natalie’s really excited to tackle the project for Channel 4. This is another string to her bow.”

The star excitedly shared: “I am looking forward to getting to ask questions we all want answers to, about must-have products.
