The star of "Eastenders" - one of the UK’s favourite television shows - has decided to lend his talents to one of the UK’s favourite games. Former Eastenders star Chris Parker has joined Gala Bingo TV and will star in a bingo soap show that will air on the channel. (Parker played the character Spencer Moon on Eastenders.)

Parker will be joined by a slew of other notable soap stars every week to delight audiences with an hour of soap/bingo entertainment.

The Soap Star Bingo Show started two weeks ago and was available to viewers with Sky, or Freesat satellite services.

The show is a weekly event and a new show will be aired every Friday evening starting at 8pm. Soap Star Bingo will attempt to shed light on some of the viewers’ questions as well as providing gossip and other pertinent news.
