Walford will be welcoming back one of their most memorable residents later this year, when Dean Gaffney reprises his role as Robbie Jackson in EastEnders for a short period of time.

Last seen back in February 2010 when he walked sister Bianca down the aisle at her wedding, Robbie returned to his family in India after revealing his wife Nita was six months pregnant.

Chatting about his return to the soap, Dean said: "I am honoured that Dominic and all at EastEnders have decided to open the door and find out where Robbie's been and what he's been up to."

Robbie's return will broadcast later this year as part of Lindsey Coulson's exit storyline, with bosses remaining secretive about exact details surrounding Lindsey's departure.
