'Enders character Sean Slater finally cast

Actor Rob Kazinsky has been cast in the role of the long-anticipated EastEnders character Sean Slater.

Sean is the brother to Stacey (Lacey Turner) and hasn't seen his sister for six years.

Of his new role, he said: "I've grown up with EastEnders so I can't quite believe I'll soon be part of the Slater family."

Kazinsky, who appeared as regular character Casper Rose in the now-axed Sky One drama Dream Team, will appear in Walford from August.
