Fans of EastEnders were left misty-eyed last night, as Jay and the residents of Walford held a
fundraiser for the late Lola Brown. In an evening of fun and bawdy magic tricks (thanks to Big Mo
and Stevie) Lola’s friends and family staged a talent show to raise money for charity. And, as the
night ended, Jay took to the stage to perform a tribute to his late wife. Jay takes to the stage Seated with a guitar and with a video of Lola playing in the background, Jay sang Wonderful Tonight, by Eric Clapton. The song held special relevance, as it was one he had once sung to her while she was ill, during their trip to the beach. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house – nor in viewers’ homes either, as it turned out.
