What Is Pam St Clement Doing Now

Pam St Clement: Still Stealing the Show, Off-Screen

Remember Pat Evans, the no-nonsense, sharp-tongued landlady of The Queen Victoria in EastEnders? Pam St Clement, the actress who brought her to life for an impressive 26 years, is still as vibrant and engaging as ever, just off-screen these days. So, what's she been up to? Let's catch up with this soap legend.

From Albert Square to the West End

After leaving EastEnders in 2012, Pam didn't hang up her acting boots. Instead, she's been treading the boards in various theatre productions. She's played everything from Shakespeare's Cleopatra to a saucy stripper in 'The Full Monty'.

"I love the challenge of theatre," Pam told us. "It's live, it's immediate, and there's no retakes. You've got to be on your game every night."

TV and Radio: The Gift of Gab

You might have spotted Pam on your telly in shows like 'Doctors', 'Holby City', or even 'The Vicar of Dibley'. She's also a regular on Radio 4, with appearances in 'The Archers' and 'Cabinet of Curiosities'.

Her voice, as rich and warm as a good cup of tea, is perfect for radio. "I love the intimacy of radio," she says. "You can paint pictures with words, and the listener fills in the gaps."

Writing and Painting: A Double Threat

Pam's not just a triple threat (actor, singer, dancer - yes, she can do that too!), she's also a talented writer and artist. She's written a couple of books, including an autobiography and a novel, and her paintings have been exhibited in galleries.

"I find writing and painting incredibly therapeutic," she says. "They're both ways of expressing yourself that don't rely on anyone else. It's just you, your thoughts, and a blank page or canvas."
