EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa will be reprising her role as Lauren Branning in tonight's, Monday 12 December, episode.
Speaking about the return of her character, Jacqueline told The Express and other media outlets: "I was quite scared and it had only been 4 and a half years. “But as soon as we were in amongst it and you’re talking about people you know, it’s Dot and you’re catching up with old friends – you get straight back into it.”“It was a WhatsApp message from my agent and they said, ‘You’re not really free these two weeks but you’ve been asked,’ and I was like, ‘We need to move everything’. It was obvious, that was it," she said.“Only because it was, what June says goes. She would come in and change the old script…always for the better.
