Yes Bob, actors. Like that Pauline Fowler woman who used to work in that Department store with the camp bloke who was always free and that other older woman who had a pussy. Anyway, apparently she packed up being a shop assistant and took up acting as a new career path.
That explains a lot I could never understand how a Scottish alcoholic bar owner in Eldorado turns up a year later as a Detective Sargent in Eastenders, naturally assumed he had gone onto the wagon and returned to normal life.
