Lacey Amelia Turner^[1] (born 28 March 1988) is an English actress, best known for playing Stacey Slater in the popular BBC television soap opera, EastEnders.

[edit] Early life

Turner was born in Hendon, NW London in 1988,^[1] to parents Bev and Les.^[2] She was raised as a Catholic with her two younger sisters Daisy (born 1990), and Lily (born 2001), in Hertfordshire, near the BBC television studios in Elstree. She went to primary school at Radlett Preparatory School, a private school located in Radlett. ^[2] It was there that Turner decided that she wanted to become an actress, and at the age of 10, she schooled at the Sylvia Young Theatre School, but left after a year.^[2] She has since revealed that she was bullied while at stage school, by children who teased her for being "geeky".^[3] Instead, she attended Peterborough and Saint Margarets School, a local girls private school in Stanmore NW London, and went to dance, singing and acting classes outside school.^[2]

As of 2007, Lacey resides in Radlett, Hertfordshire.^[4]

[edit] Career

Turner's earliest work included appearances on stage and in advertisements (notably a Haribo advert).^[5] In 2004, Turner auditioned for the role of Demi Miller in BBC's EastEnders. Though she failed to get that part, she was instead given the role of Stacey, a new addition to the popular Slater family. She started in the soap the day after leaving school,^[2] and made her first appearance on-screen in November 2004.^[5] Commenting on the role, Turner said, "I always dreamt of being on the show and so I can't believe that I've fulfilled my greatest ambition!"^[6] In 2005, Turner appeared alongside Catherine Tate's character Lauren in a special sketch for the BBC's annual Children in Need telethon.^[7] In January 2009, Turner appeared as a guest on The Sunday Night Project.
