NTAs 2017: EastEnders' Gillian Taylforth INCHES from falling out of very daring frock
EASTENDERS star Gillian Taylforth risked a serious wardrobe malfunction while on the red carpet at last night's National Television Awards.

The soap star was seemingly going for gold as she sashayed into the bash wearing a metallic strapless gown.
Her show-stopping frock was adorned with ornate gold embellishments, but Gillian - who plays Kathy Beale in the BBC hit show - appeared to be catching eyes for an entirely different reason.
While posing for snaps, the bubbly beauty looked mere inches from pouring out of the frock as she leaned a little too far forward during a giggling fit.

And things didn't improve when Gillian regained her upright posture as the neckline of the dress sat almost half-way down her bust.
Fortunately, a male companion was on hand to give the 61-year-old a heads up, with the star laughing off the mishap.
But Gillian wasn't the only soap stunner to have suffered an outfit blunder on the night as Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter was also close to flashing a little too much flesh.
The 29-year-old actress was caught re-adjusting her dress after narrowly escaping a wardrobe malfunction in her halter-neck gown.

Jorgie Porter was also moments away from a red carpet fashion faux pas
While the frock concealed the former I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here star's cleavage, it was a different story when it came to her side-boob as she was pictured quickly amending her frock after she showed off a little too much skin.
Elsewhere, Loose Women's Stacey Soloman and Olympian Sam Quek rocked up to the event in the same glittering red frock.
While both had good intentions of channelling their inner Jessica Rabbit in the glamorous design, they wound up suffering one of the fashion world's biggest faux pas'.
