LOUISA LOVES IT UP THE SHITTER... FROM SHELLEY HENDERSON
Louisa Claire Lytton[1] (born 7 February 1989)[citation needed] is an English actress from Islington, London. As of 2007 she is best known for playing Ruby Allen in the BBC One soap opera EastEnders.
Family
Lytton is an only child and her parents are Jane and Alan.
Career
Lytton attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School. She was also Emma Watson's double in the film Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
EastEnders
Lytton made her first appearance in EastEnders on 18 March 2005. Weeks after winning the "Sexiest Female" award at the British Soap Awards in May 2006 it was reported that Lytton would be leaving EastEnders in November 2006. On the exit of her character, Lytton had commented:[2][3] "I've really enjoyed my time at EastEnders. It has been a great experience which I will never forget but I am now looking forward to trying new things."
Lytton's final scenes were broadcast in November 2006. On 1 December 2006 Lytton appeared on the ITV1 show Loose Women and confirmed that leaving EastEnders was not her decision, indicating that she would have liked to have carried on in the role, but the show's producers had decided not to renew her contract. She also stated that her final scenes were originally much longer with more impact, but for reasons unknown to her, they were heavily cut, resulting in a far less dramatic ending than the actress would have hoped for. Lytton remains friends with her EastEnders costar Lacey Turner.
Strictly Come Dancing
In Autumn 2006 Lytton took part in the fourth series of the BBC One reality television programme Strictly Come Dancing, and was the youngest contestant ever to appear on the show. Her professional dance partner was Vincent Simone. After several impressive performances she was eliminated in the quarter-finals, finishing in fourth place out of fourteen, losing out to Emma Bunton in a "dance-off" for a place in the last three. Surrey cricketer Mark Ramprakash ended up winning the show. However, Lytton appeared in the Christmas special on Christmas Day with fellow contestants Mark Ramprakash, Matt Dawson and Emma Bunton, along with 2005's semi finalists Zoë Ball and Colin Jackson. This show was won by Jackson.
The Bill
On 16 May 2007 Lytton was first seen playing new recruit PC Beth Green on the ITV1 police procedural The Bill. However this was'nt her first appearance on the bill. She made an appearance when she was eight.
Other work
Between leaving EastEnders and joining The Bill she made an appearance on the CBBC show Hider in the House as herself. Louisa has also appeared on Big Brother's Little Brother with Dermot O'leary.
Personal Life
Lytton claims that she currently has "too much going on to find time for a boyfriend". She has a close relationship with Eastenders co-star Lacey Turner. She has been single for over a year.
