Kari Corbett has joined the cast of Hollyoaks as Russ Owen's new love interest.
The former River City actress will play newcomer Caroline, who meets Russ (Stuart Manning) in the local pub.
He is immediately intrigued when she asks him to make a phone call on her behalf before leaving her business card and disappearing into the night.
The couple end up in bed when Caroline reappears several days later, but a chance third encounter leaves Russ bemused. This time, she carries a briefcase, makes secret phone calls and has computer disks which seem to hold top secret information, leading him to suspect that she is a spy.
Corbett, who previously starred in The Royal and Monarch Of The Glen, said: "I’m really enjoying the role of Caroline. It’s so interesting to be playing a character who herself is acting a character and I love all the mysterious, ambiguous dialogue too.
"Russ actually thinks she’s some MI6 spy but he soon discovers she’s just a postwoman!"
