"As I watched the [9/11] march outside my window, and the reading of names on my television screen, I was overwhelmed by the feeling of love and friendship that surrounded me, in spite of the fear that morning, out at the Midwood studio where AS THE WORLD TURNS is shot.

Daughter of EASTENDERS' Mike Reid scraps BNP election bid over fears she would be branded 'a Nazi'
Until yesterday, Angela Reid, 50 - whose late father played car dealer Frank Butcher - was set to contest a vacant seat on Braintree District Council in Essex. But in a dramatic u-turn, Reid scrapped her bid for a political career when the identity of her father was revealed. Before the last minute snub, the BNP had played up the famous connection, even bragging that the popularity of the late comic could attract more votes.
"Angela is a respectable, middle-aged woman and we will see what we can do with regards to what votes we can get," said BNP deputy leader Simon Darby. "It's not going to be a hindrance - Mike Reid was a very popular bloke."
