EE - Actors that went nowhere after quitting for bigger and better things?
Anyone know of any actors who quit the show and never really made it anywhere after?

Peter Dean who played Pete Beale, Jack Ryder who played Jamie Mitchell are the first 2 names that spring to mind.

There's probably only about 10 former soap stars across the board that have gone on to bigger and better things. Most disappear into obsucrity or pop up in the odd TV drama which won't be as well paid as a regular soap role.

There's a rumour that June Brown quit the show in protest over it. |

Martine Mucutchin Beppe Di Marco Joe Aboslon You're right about Michael Greco/Beppe. Pretty sure Martin Kemp hasn't done too badly. He already had a profile before EE because of Spandau Ballet. He's been in a lot. Joe Absolom isn't a big star but has been on Doc Martin for years. Plus has a number of dramas under his belt. |

All I ever see Michael Greco doing is going for runs in LA these days in the Daily Mail. What income does he have exactly? Quote:

When she left EE in 1995 she was in a few TV dramas. Clips are on YouTube. |

Neil McDermott who played Ryan Malloy has barely done anything TV wise since he left EE in 2011. Unless he's in theatre or something.
Jack Ryder (Jamie Mitchell) wasn't looking like much of a heart throb from the last pics I saw of him. |

![]() I think it's hilarious the way people are deemed unsuccessful if they're not in tv regularly sure beppe is in america now. quite a lot leave and do theatre work, that is successful in its own right and needs a heck of a lot more dedication and talent. Yes Martin is still touring with spandau 😃 letitia dean did a few shows on the west end away from Ee. not everyone aspires to only being a soap star |

Aside from Strictly (I think she was in the same series as Matt Di Angelo. Alesha Dixon won it that year), I don't think Letitia acted in any TV or film roles after she left EE in 2006, up until her return in 2012. She made a few real life appearances on daytime and primetime chat shows and released a workout DVD. I read that she was in theatre during that period.
When she left EE in 1995 she was in a few TV dramas. Clips are on YouTube. ![]() I thought that's why she left, she wanted a bit of variety and wanted to do more theatre. |

Just because you are not on the goggle box week in week out does not mean you have dropped off the face of the earth. There is this thing called theatre and appearing in the West End is a fantastic expereince for many.
