Danniella Westbrook to return to 'EastEnders'?

Yet another former cast member is being tipped to return to EastEnders. The latest name in the frame, according to a tabloid newspaper, is Danniella Westbrook.

The actress has reportedly been invited to take part in the BBC3 show, EastEnders Revealed and, if all goes well, she may return to EastEnders itself.

Danniella - who played Sam Butcher - was axed in 2000 after her lifestyle interfered with her acting. She became addicted to cocaine, resulting in the loss of her septum, and was replaced by Kim Medcalf in 2002. Kim, however, will be bidding farewell to EastEnders at the end of the year, leaving the door open for Sam's return.

An insider told The Sun: "Now Danniella is looking so great, it would make sense for her to go back once Kim leaves."
