Big Brother winner Nadia Almada has made an appearance on Channel 4 soap, Hollyoaks, according to the Sunday Mirror today.

Nadia plays herself in an episode which sees her turning on the Christmas lights in the soap's town, and hopes that the appearance will lead to more television offers.

While on set, she said, "I can't believe I am actually here. So much has happened to me in the last year I just can't take it in, but to be here on set and meeting the cast is fabulous."

An insider told the newspaper, "She got on so well with us all it was quite amazing. It seemed everyone at the studio wanted to say hello and chat."
