Former 'EastEnders' star Gillian Taylforth is being hotly-tipped for a role in 'Holby City'.
The blonde actress - who used to play Kathy Beale in the hit soap - hasn't yet signed a contract to appear in the popular medical drama but the show's script-writers are said to be writing a major part that would be ideal for her.
If she takes the role, 'Footballers Wives' star Gillian would become a regular on the programme.
An insider is quoted in Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: "A new part has been written especially for Gillian. Nothing has been signed yet but it is a regular role which would be perfect for her."
Gillian was one of the original cast members in 'EastEnders' when it launched in 1985, but her character eventually ran off to South Africa after leaving her second husband Phil Mitchell almost a decade ago.
