EastEnders legend Kacey Ainsworth has given fans a glimpse of her very special forever eco-home that some people thought she was “mad” to create.
The actress, 54, who played Little Mo in the BBC soap between 2000 and 2006, moved into the property in 2008 and wanted to make her “forever home” sustainable and energy efficient.

“We could have thrown up a traditional house and there were problems, a leaky roof and our solar panels are now obsolete.”

Kacey, who lives with partner Darren Hales and their two kids Elwood and Blossom, added she had no more cash for landscaping, and that there was more to be done.
