Former EastEnders star Pam St Clement reportedly shouted at a railway worker after he made a joke about her character.
According to reports, she told him to “f**k off” at a station in Oxfordshire after he said: “Pat Butcher? I thought you were dead.”

An onlooker told The Sun newspaper: “He obviously meant absolutely nothing by it. I’d have thought that she got called Pat all the time to be honest, she was on the telly for years.”
“She needs to calm down a bit, maybe she’d had a long day – but the poor guy who asked her looked pretty upset, I thought he might cry.”
Pat was killed off in 2012 (image: BBC).
Head of stations at Chiltern Railways, Chad Collins, said that the member of staff is “well known for is positive interaction” before apologising for any offence caused by the “misjudged” comment.
Pam played Pat Butcher in the BBC soap for 26 years. Her character was killed off at the beginning of 2012.
