Anita Dobson makes a surprise return to EastEnders as Angie Watts, delighting fans after a 37-year absence.

She expressed that returning felt natural, especially working alongside Letitia Dean, portraying a deeply emotional experience. The EastEnders team highlighted her significant impact on the show and British television, marking her presence as an iconic figure in the series' history.
I obviously told Brian, but I honestly haven't told anybody! It's been really hard because so many people that I'm really close to have said oh, are you going back? I've kept my little mouth shut because I didn't want there to be any spoilers!
Angie Watts is undoubtedly one of EastEnders most formidable and iconic landladies. Since the very first episode, Anita instantly created a character that the audience adored and she not only shaped EastEnders into the show it is today.
