EastEnders death scene for Kush. Nicky JohnstonBBC I ll be sad to see him go but I ve loved every minute of playing the character, he said. I have really enjoyed being part of that final storyline, my time over the six and a half years has culminated in something that people will remember. When you leave a show like this and the door s open, that question can stay over you for a very long time but this is very definitive of course and I m happy with that. It s a nice thing to have a full stop to the end of Kush s story. Although it s the end of the line for Kush, he has given me lots of happy memories and I will miss him greatly.
