A CASUALTY legend has revealed she's making a shock return to the BBC drama five years after her exit. <\/p>\n
During Friday's Loose Women Sunetra Sarker confessed she's set to walk back onto the wards of Holby City Hospital. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Actress Sunetra, 50, starred in Casualty as Doctor Zoe Hanna, told how her return will coincide with Charlie Fairhead actor Derek Thompson's exit from the show. <\/p>\n
She said: "This week I was in hospital – but not as a patient. I might have gone back to a certain hospital that I used to work at a while ago called Holby City Hospital. <\/p>\n
"I'm going back after about… it must be seven years. I left in 2016 so it's been a while. <\/p>\n
"I\u2019m going back for a special double episode because our lovely Charlie who has been there forever is going to leave the show. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"So I\u2019m going back to make sure I get my last little moment with him."<\/p>\n
Back in May Derek, 75, revealed he was leaving Casualty after nearly four decades. <\/p>\n
Speaking about his decision to leave, the soap star said: \u201cThe time has come for me to hang up Charlie\u2019s scrubs after the most wonderful 37 years.<\/p>\n
"Charlie Fairhead was inspired by a real nurse \u2013 Pete Salt. Together with the writers and producers, I have tried to bring to Charlie the compassion, kindness, heroism and sound judgement that we all see and love in Pete and I want to say thanks to Pete and everyone else over that time who has inspired me in bringing this character to life.\u201d<\/p>\n
