Bannerman keen on 'EastEnders' return
Marc Bannerman has claimed that he would return to EastEnders "in a heartbeat" if he were given the opportunity.

The actor, who played Gianni di Marco in the soap between 1998 and 2000, said that he enjoyed having the chance to build a character over an extended period of time.

He told DS: "I love EastEnders and I loved my time there.

"It was a regular job, and also on a soap you get to develop a character over a period of time, and I quite enjoyed that. You get to add your own little traits and after three years you can play with it a bit more.

"I love the stability of a soap, you know?"

When asked if he would ever return to the show, the I'm A Celebrity... star said: "I would go back in a heartbeat, but I can't see it happening, personally."
