Willow Day - Gemma Workman

For my Willow day I asked to go see the set of Eastenders as I am a big fan.

When I got the phone call from Debbie to say that I would be going, I was so excited and couldn't wait. My mum, friend and I went on the 6th November. The people at the Willow organisation were very nice and made sure I was well looked after.

I arrived in London in style as we were chauffeur driven from home to the studios. There we were met by Beth and Caroline who were very nice and looked after us. They gave us a tour of the set and answered any questions that we had. The highlight of the day for me was when I got to meet the cast and especially when I met Barbara Windsor who is very nice in person. I got everyone's autograph and their headshots. We then left the studios again in style, returning home by our chauffeur, Steve, who was very pleasant and punctual.

My Willow day will be a day that I will never forget. I felt like a princess all day!
