Jessie Wallace
Ooh, it’s all happening down on Albert Square after the cast have got their laundry in a right old twist over the return of ‘enders legend Kat Slater, so much so that they’ve started a petition banning her form the square.
Whilst we’ve been jumping for joy at the prospect of Kat and Archie’s return, it seems the rest of the long-running cast members aren’t quite so excited, and have
allegedly signed a petition begging bosses not to let actress Jessie Wallace back on the set.
Apparently, the star was such a loose canon the first time around she was quite a liability on set, and in turn, this affected cast morale. Even Jessie herself admitted that she was "out of control" during her early days as Kat Slater, especially when she was arrested for drink driving and suspended for her boozing.
However, despite the rumours, it’s thought that Jessie is back on top form, and show’s officials have even issued a statement saying; "We've received no complaints and are looking forward to having her back."
