EastEnders' Gillian Taylforth, 67, risks wardrobe malfunction in plunging black and sheer gown at Br
EASTENDERS' Gillian Taylforth, 67, risked a wardrobe malfunction in a plunging black and sheer gown at The British Soap Awards.
Gillian plays Kathy Beale in the BBC soap, but gave her younger co-stars a run for their money in the glam stakes on the red carpet on Saturday night.
The annual soap ceremony took place in Manchester and Gillian looked incredible in a black gown which featured a sheer panel from her collarbone to her navel.
It meant Gillian had to go braless, with her cleavage on show and smiled confidently for the cameras before posing alongside on-screen partner, Brian Conley.
Brian, 61, was ever the joker, and pulled Gillian in for a cuddle from behind, disturbing the placing of her risque gown.
Thankfully there was no wardrobe malfunction for the actress and the pair grinned together on the red carpet before heading into the ceremony.

Gillian wasn't the only member of the EastEnders cast to get the black dress memo.
Jessie Wallace - who plays Kat Slater - chose an off the shoulder dress which she teamed with a waist belt over the top.
Diane Parish - who plays Denise Branning - opted for a black gown that had a peplum waist.
Meanwhile Lorraine Stanley continued to blow EastEnders' viewers minds at how different she looks to her character Karen Taylor in a chic black dress with capped slit sleeves.

Elsewhere, Danielle Harold, whose character Lola Pearce died in heartbreaking scenes this week, opted for a lighter colour.
Danielle looked sensational in a white lace gown which featured a nude background and thigh-high split.
With glam Hollywood style waves in her blonde hair and a bold red lip, Danielle is certainly bowing out of the soap world in style.
Her co-star Emma Barton - who plays Honey Mitchell - also opted for a neutral colour in a pretty cream floating gown which featured intricate floral detailing.
EastEnders airs on BBC One and The British Soap Awards are on Tuesday, June 6 at 8pm on ITV1.
