EastEnders star Derek Martin starred in an X-rated movie in the 1970s, it has been revealed.

Martin, who plays Charlie Slater in the BBC One soap, portrayed a prison guard in the 1975 adult film Diversions, which was given the title Sex Express for UK distribution.

According to The Sun, the 76-year-old only had a minor role and does not appear in any sex scenes.

The movie tells the story of a woman, played by Heather Deeley, who is escorted to prison via train. While on her journey, she has a series of sexually explicit daydreams.

Speaking about his role in the film, Martin said: "This film was shot many years ago when I was still trying to get my big break in the industry. Luckily, looking back I was never involved in the action scenes, so to speak. But it was definitely an experience that helped me to further my career in showbiz."

Martin's other TV credits have included roles in Minder, The Bill, Dempsey & Makepeace and Terry and June.
