Former 'EastEnders' star Shaun Williamson has said that he doesn't miss working on the soap.

According to the Daily Record, the actor said: "I don't miss 'EastEnders' at all - I haven't since the day I left."

Williamson said he liked playing Barry in the show when the character was evil.

He said: "It was great, but I wouldn't go back to playing a loser again, otherwise I might as well have stayed."

"I got gobbled up by 'EastEnders' and spent nine years there, which wasn't planned. You just keep re-signing the contracts."

"I spent a long time on TV and when I left 'EastEnders' in 2003, I couldn't wait to get back to doing comedy on stage."
