Several EastEnders stars are set to reprise their roles to give Walford legend Dot Cotton the send-off she deserves.
Familiar faces from years gone by will return to Albert Square in upcoming scenes as Dot’s character passes away off-screen after first being introduced to the BBC soap back in 1985. The goodbye scenes will be a loving tribute after actress June Brown died in April, aged 95.
Six past characters have been confirmed to be making a comeback for the funeral scenes, including Lauren Branning actress Jacqueline Jossa, The Mirror reports . Speaking of her return to the soap, Jacqueline said: “Coming back to EastEnders for Dot's funeral was a no-brainer, and it was a real honour to be invited back.
