Former EastEnders star Letitia Dean is being lined up for the new series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The actress decided to take a break from her role as Sharon Rickman on the BBC One soap in January 2006, after being involved in a number of high-profile storylines.
Although producers promised that Letitia would only be spending a short period of time away from the show, she has not yet made a return.
Now Dean is believed to be making plans for a TV comeback, and hopes that Strictly Come Dancing will help to raise her profile again.
A source told The Sun: "Tish has taken a year off but she aims to make a big splash with her TV comeback."
