Lisa Faulkner would love an EastEnders return

Lisa Faulkner would love an ‘EastEnders’ comeback.
The 46-year-old actress – who played James Willmott-Brown’s (William Boyde) daughter, Fi Browning, on the BBC One soap in 2017 – admitted despite her nerves she loved her stint on the show, and if she was asked she’d be delighted to make a return.
She told OK! magazine: "I didn’t expect to enjoy filming ‘EastEnders’. I was scared and I thought, I don’t know if I want to do this! And then I had the best nine months.
"It was great playing a baddie and I’ve made fantastic friends there. If they asked me back with an appropriate storyline, I’d say yes. They haven’t yet, though…"
Meanwhile, Lisa is in a celebratory mood after revealing she got engaged to ‘MasterChef’ judge John Torode on Christmas Day (25.12.18).
She recently said: "My gorgeous John completely surprised me on Christmas Day and asked me to marry him! After waiting to tell our family when we got home we then had a few days just grinning at each other!! Im so very happy to share our lovely news with you. Happy 2019 it’s going to be quite a year and I’m going to embrace every minute of it. All you need is love. Love is all you need. (sic)"
She wrote her message alongside a selfie with John, in which she showed off her huge sparkler on her engagement finger.
John, 53, also took to Instagram to share a snap of the former ‘Holby City’ star with a big grin on her face on their holiday.
He wrote: "And she said YES !! Bloody love my Lisa .. Have put a ring on it (sic)"
The couple met when Lisa won ‘Celebrity MasterChef’ in 2010, and they started dating in 2012.
