Leslie Grantham – Den Watts, EastEnders

Saying Leslie Grantham is an important part of EastEnders history is an understatement. He quite literally had the honor of saying the program’s opening line when it first premiered in 1985. And for the four years that followed, he played the charming rogue Den Watts.

He led an eventful life since leaving the show that saw him in films like Acceptance and the TV series The Bill. Grantham passed away in 2018 at the age of 71 after a battle with lung cancer. Although he had his demons, he is still remembered fondly by his EastEnders castmates.
