Eastenders - Sienna Miller wants a part

22 October 2007 - Sienna Miller is desperate for a part in EastEnders.

The 25-year-old actress - who plays a soap star in her new movie 'Interview' - would turn her back on the glitz and glamour of Hollywood to take on a gritty role in the long-running BBC TV series about the working class residents of Albert Square.

She told BANG Showbiz: "I haven't been in England for a long time so I'm not to sure about what soap I would like to be in. I like 'Sex and the City' but that's not English, but I have been spending more time in America recently.

"I like 'EastEnders', well, I used to like 'EastEnders'. I would love to have a pint in the Queen Vic pub!"

Sienna - who had a well-documented relationship with Jude Law and is now said to be dating Rhys Ifans - insists her role in 'Interview' came easily to her, because she is used to being more famous for her off screen exploits than her work.

Sienna - whose character, Katya, has a colourful private life in the film - said: "I'm really proud of this film, and it's nice to be asked about work and not other stuff."
