Steve McFadden is taking time out of his busy Phil Mitchell-filled schedule and has signed on to narrate a new comedy web series, I Gotta Be Me.

He has joined forces with former EastEnders actor Phaldut Sharma, who will be starring in the 10-part series.

Phaldut Sharma plays Paul, a Welsh-Asian actor frustrated by the limited roles available for him on mainstream TV.

After failing to get on Strictly Come Dancing two years in a row, he agrees to join Andrea Morrelli's Rat Pack tribute show in Cyprus.

Director Steven Bloomer said: "Clearly some elements are fictional, but other moments are far less clear ­even to us. When you put a camera on them, everyone becomes a bit of a performer."

I Gotta Be Me premieres on November 20.
