EastEnders star Gillian Wright makes a guest appearance in next week's Holby City.

The actress will be seen in the role of Lydia Rathbone, who arrives in the hospital as a troublesome patient.

Lydia already knows Holby's popular nurse Fletcher, as she used to teach his daughter Evie.


When Lydia is admitted to the hospital after falling into a river, she is instantly cold towards Fletch as she points out his past failings as a father.

Despite Lydia's protests that she doesn't want to be treated by Fletch, he keeps a close eye on her after noticing a nasty gash on her arm.

Evie also soon turns up on the ward for an unexpected visit and is thrilled to be reunited with her old teacher. However, when Evie asks why she left the school so suddenly and Lydia skirts round the subject, it's clear that she may be hiding something.
