Lynda Baron will reprise her Eastenders role as the mum of Jane and Christian latert this year. Baron is probably best know for her role in classic BBC show ‘Open All Hours’, but I know her best as Aunty Mabel from ‘Come Outside.’

A source told Inside Soap: “We’re very excited to have Lynda back with us. The last time Linda was around, in late 2006, we found out that Jane used to be called Lesley and had a darker past than anyone realised.”

They added: “More skeletons may be unearthed this time, and the dynamic between Linda and Christian should be interesting, too.”

Lynda’s return to Albert Square will air in late October or early November.
