Albert Square is set to be hit by the return of another 90s legend in upcoming EastEnders scenes and we couldn’t be happier.
Fans have been theorising that Patsy Palmer is set to reprise her role as Bianca Jackson – and they have been proved right.
In the coming months, Bianca is set to return to Albert Square, unaware that dad David Wicks (Michael French) is hot on her tail.
It has been ten years since David last set foot in Walford, and fans were delighted when his return was announced last month.
Soon after the news broke, actress Patsy fuelled rumours of a return for Bianca when she took to Instagram to post an old picture of the pair of them in character, with the caption, ‘Every girl needs her father’.
David and Bianca have had a complicated relationship over the years, with David only discovering that she was his daughter after developing romantic feelings for her in 1993.
When David returned in 2013, it seemed as though he and Bianca’s mum Carol Jackson (Lindsey Coulson) were going to get their happy ending, but things ended in disaster when he suffered a heart attack and failed to appear at their wedding.
Unfortunately, their relationship broke down, and David moved to America, where he has been ever since.
Bianca made a return to EastEnders earlier this year when Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) paid her a visit in Milton Keynes.
She later joined her back in Albert Square ahead of Whitney’s wedding to Zack Hudson (James Farrar), but got more than she bargained for when she found out about his affair with Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa).
When Whitney found out that Bianca had kept quiet about their betrayal, she abandoned her, which was the beginning of Bianca’s downward spiral.
There is still plenty of unfinished business for Bianca in Albert Square, especially considering what Reiss Colwell (Jonny Freeman) has been up to in her absence.
Will she be the one to get to the bottom of his crimes? And what will she make of David’s arrival?
