EastEnders actors Harriet Thorpe, Natalie Cassidy and Heather Peace donned their fanciest bras for a stroll through the night in the capital.

The famous pair joined Hollyoaks actor David Ames and broadcaster Gaby Roslin, to wear decorated bras or t-shirts with printed lingerie for MoonWalk London.

The annual event raises money for breast cancer charity Walk the Walk.

So far, it has raised nearly £2m for cancer research and to provide emotional and physical support for those living with cancer.

Moonwalkers met up at Clapham Common in south London before covering either a 13 miles (half marathon) or 26 miles (full marathon) distance.

Another 150 participants joined online for a 5k via Zoom.

Thorpe, who plays Queen Vic landlady Elaine Peacock, is an ambassador for Walk The Walk and donned a black bra with red and gold embroidery and a black mesh cardigan.

They wore colourful bras and bralettes with added sequins, feather boas and tassels while some wore large capes with fairy lights for the event.
