21/10/2009 - 16:54
Ex-EastEnders' stars Kara Tointon and Joe Swash have signed up to star in a pantomime together.
The pair, who are boyfriend and girlfriend in real life, will take their chemistry to the stage when they star as Snow White and Prince Charming at Bristol's Hippodrome this Christmas.
The couple met in EastEnders, where they played siblings Dawn Swann and Mickey Miller.
Joe left the soap in July 2008 and Kara made her exit in August this year, when Dawn sailed off into the sunset with Gary Hobbs.
Of her panto role, Kara told The Sun: "It'll be strange to work together again but we're looking forward to it."
