Zoe Lucker has joined the cast of Hollyoaks as a new member of the McQueen family.
Zoe Lucker as Reenie McQueen
Her character - Reenie McQueen - is the daughter of Nana McQueen and mother to Porsche, Celine and Cleo.
Set to begin filming her first scenes next week, Zoe said ahead of the recording: "I am really excited to be joining Hollyoaks - especially as a McQueen!"
The actress is eager to get started with working on the show because there's a "very interesting story" in store for her character, who's to be in prison when first introduced.
"Reenie is a very complex character and will, in time, have a very interesting story to tell. Now I just can't wait to start filming."
Teasing the plotlines, a spokesperson for the soap revealed Reenie is a "party girl" who has family "issues" that she'll be forced to deal with.
"Reenie is a good-time party girl without an 'off' switch and can be exhausting company although deep down she is the most vulnerable of Nana's children.
"She hasn't set the best example to her three girls, who she raised largely on her own and frequently lets them down.
"Emotionally she's got issues and sometimes it's difficult to tell just who the mother is and who is the daughter."
