An EastEnders star is bringing his karaoke night with a twist to a Norwich venue this Christmas.

Shaun Williamson is best known for playing the hapless Barry Evans in the BBC soap from 1994 to 2004, when Janine shoved him off a cliff. 

Evans is also behind 'Barrioke' - a smash-hit show he has taken to venues and festivals across the country.
