Ladies and gents, contain your excitement please! We have a little bit of top totty returning to The Square. We’ll be welcoming Gary Lucy back to our screens as a regular character this June, when the irresistible Danny Pennant is lured back to Walford on business.
On his reprised role Gary commented: “I’m extremely excited to be joining such a fantastic show – one which my family are huge fans of and I grew up watching. I enjoyed the little taster last September and am looking forward to exploring my character further, seeing what’s in store for him and which characters it will involve.”
The flirtatious city banker was last seen being run out of Walford by Masood after his torrid affair with soon-to-be-married, Syed which resulted in revenge, arrests and blackmail. He definitely caused a stir...
Lorraine Newman, Executive Producer added: “We are absolutely delighted to reveal that Gary Lucy will be returning to EastEnders. Gary clearly felt at home on the show and his wonderful portrayal of Danny Pennant left us with an intriguing character to explore, it really was only a matter of time before he returned. Danny's stories will see him crossing paths with some of our best loved characters and I am sure the audience will relish in the fact that the complex nature of this character means that nothing is ever simple.”
We’re chomping at the bit for your return too Gary! Your dressing room awaits.
