EastEnders star Jo Joyner says she'd like to head to an exotic location for a soap spin-off. The actress, who plays Tanya on the BBC soap, would like writers to send the girls, especially herself and co-star Letitia Dean (Sharon Watts) on a girly holiday. "Oh, I love working with Tish! It's nice to not always be with men in scenes," she told Inside Soap. "I would quite like EastEnders to do a spin-off trip for Tanya and Sharon to Las Vegas or something like that. I've been here in Albert Square for seven years now, and the furthest I've gone is the Walford divorce courts." Jo admitted that the cast have piled on the pounds while shooting EastEnders' Christmas scenes. "We all put on about half a stone filming an EastEnders Christmas!" she joked. "There are loads of things like chocolates and sweets and by the end of each day, they're all gone. Then there's Christmas dinner of course. On the first take, it's lovely. But after that, it can be really cold and hard." She added: "Those of us who've been there a bit longer know not to take a single bite until you have the camera fixed on you."
