Palmer, Owen in BAFTA party row?
Patsy Palmer and Sid Owen were reportedly furious after being refused entry to an aftershow party at the BAFTAs.

The pair, who recently returned to EastEnders as Bianca and Ricky, allegedly rowed with a bouncer when he wouldn't let them into the Grosvenor House Hotel, where the bash was being held.

The Mirror quotes Palmer as saying: "Bleedin' 'ell! I can't believe this - this is all we need!"

The doorman didn't recognise the pair, who had both forgotten to get their wrists stamped with a VIP badge.

An onlooker told the tabloid: "It was just like a scene in EastEnders, but even better because it was live.

"In true Bianca style Patsy's voice was getting louder and louder. And quite rightly so. The bouncer was being ridiculously strict about it."

The chief security guard later realised that the bouncer had made a mistake and took Palmer and Owen into the party.

The soap couple only stayed for five minutes, with 'Enders actor Jake Wood (Max Branning on the show) saying: "Patsy went home ages ago. It's a shame but she's got to get all the way to Brighton."
