Olly Murs and Dot Cotton

Olly Murs has revealed he's so keen to get a role on EastEnders that he'd have a fling with Dot Cotton.

The 'Please Don't Let Me Go' start is desperate for a cameo, something his idol Robbie Williams did back in 1995.

Olly told The Sun, "Every time I meet any of the cast I am on their case. Patsy Palmer told me Robbie got his cameo from just turning up at the set one day wanting a tour.

"So I'm debating using that tactic too."

He went to add: "It would be amazing fun. I'm a huge fan. I'd love to have an affair with Dot Cotton or something."

You can see Olly perform a number of gigs this summer including as support for JLS on their summer tour.
