Extractions: BY AMY ROSE HARTE ONE OF the UK's biggest soap stars arrived in Letterkenny on Saturday night, amidst a flurry of Donegal fans. James Alexandrou, who plays Martin Fowler in Eastenders, was greeted by thousands as he made a guest appearance at Voodoo nightclub. James spoke exclusively to the Donegal News about his trip over, his decision to leave the soap and what he really thinks of the Donegal accent. "This is my first time in Donegal, so far so good," says the 21 year-old, "I've been here for about an hour and everybody seems very friendly so it's lovely". This was James's first time making a guest appearance of this nature, and he was flown over especially by Voodoo for the night. "We got in very late and drove from Belfast and there were some beautiful views on the way over. I'm going to have a few drinks, hopefully speak to a few nice people and say hello to the crowd. It's my first time doing this kind of thing so I'm a bit nervous really," he said.

But now Kara reveals that she never expected to fall for co-star James, who until recently played Martin Fowler. Speaking for the first time about the relationship, Kara, 23, tells the Mirror: "I always thought, 'I'll never get involved with someone at work'. "You worry about whether it's right. But in the end, you can't help who you fall for. He's a wonderful person who's very generous and always thinks about everyone else. "And the fact is, it wasn't like a normal office where you sit at desks next to each other. In the time he was here we only had two scenes together, so we didn't really see each other at work, except in the green room.
