'No Angels' actress joins 'The Bill'

No Angels actress Kaye Wragg has joined the cast of The Bill.

Kaye - most famous for her role as Kate in the Channel 4 nurse comedy - is to play Sun Hill's new police constable Diane Noble.

Ex-Army Corporal Diane, who has an unparalleled ability to put the booze away, will enjoy hanging out with the boys, especially Dan (Chris Jarvis) & Will (Gary Lucy). She will not, however, have any time for Sergeant Nikki Wright (Gillian Taylforth), whose policing attitude couldn’t be more different from hers. Diane will speak her mind and ruffle a few feathers along the way. As well as speeding around in the area car, viewers will also see a softer side to PC Noble when she supports a colleague who hits rock-bottom.

Of her new role, Kaye said: “I’m extremely excited to have landed a regular role in the The Bill although at the same time, it is a daunting task to join a long-running and well-established successful show. I’m looking forward to having the time to develop my character which I have never had the chance to do before and see her through an exciting journey”

Kaye's first on-screen appearance is due at the beginning of October.
