A teaser for the upcoming episode reads: “Rob is concerned when Ruhma gets into trouble, Graham has become a partner and all is lost, while Scarlett is in no mood to celebrate her birthday.”
The Sun Hill police character told it This morning in 2020: “I really didn’t (want it to go away).
“I wasn’t there exactly at the end, I left before the end.
“I was so disappointed that it was over. I thought there was really no reason why it should have been like this, and that it could have gone on much longer.
“I think it still needs to happen now.”
She next starred in Heartbeat, Victim And ITV‘s Emmerdale in the early 2000s and 2010s, playing Georgiathe mother of Jai (Chris Bisson).
Her character returned to screens in 2023, but with EastEnders actress Lin Blakley (Pam Coker).

Trudie previously said about her famous offspring: “It’s very strange. She is much more famous than me because she is known worldwide.
“We had no expectations that they would perform. But both of my daughters are musicians and songwriters.
“Music has always been a big part of their lives, not through me but through my husband. He is an actor, but also an extremely good musician.”
She is the longest serving member of The Bill.
