Veteran actor Larry Lamb, 77, has candidly shared his thoughts on ageing and the inevitability of mortality in a poignant new interview. The beloved star, known for his roles in EastEnders and Gavin & Stacey, revealed that he is acutely aware that "the end is near" but is determined to make the most of his remaining time, especially with his daughters.
A Life Well Lived
Lamb, who has enjoyed a decades-long career in television and theatre, spoke openly about the passage of time. "You reach a certain age and you start to realise that every moment counts," he said. "I’ve had an incredible life, but now it’s about cherishing the people who matter most."
Family First
The actor, who has two daughters, George and Eloise, emphasised the importance of family. "Seeing my girls grow into amazing women has been one of the greatest joys of my life," he shared. "Now, it’s about creating memories with them—whether it’s a quiet dinner or a holiday together."
Facing Mortality
Lamb admitted that confronting his own mortality hasn’t been easy. "It’s a strange feeling, knowing that time is limited," he reflected. "But it’s also liberating in a way. It makes you focus on what truly matters."
Despite the sombre tone, Lamb remains optimistic. "I’m not afraid of what’s next," he said. "I’ve lived a full life, and I’m grateful for every moment."
