Patsy Palmer has dropped the biggest hint yet that her time as Bianca Jackson on EastEnders
hasn’t quite come to an end – as she looks set to reunite with on-screen dad David Wicks (Michael French).
We last saw Bianca on our screens in June, when she drove out of Albert Square in a taco takeaway
van and into the sunset. The move was prompted after a catastrophic falling out with her family – she’d kept prospective son-in-law Zack Hudson’s (James Farrar) affair with Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) a secret from adoptive daughter Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) and the ordeal was exposed on her wedding day. Bianca was planning on joining Whitney for a new life up North, but she left without her. Settling into Walford life once again, she found herself a job at the Bridge Street Café – but it wasn’t long before she began clashing with sister Sonia’s (Natalie Cassidy) boyfriend Reiss (Jonny Freeman) over his somewhat questionable behaviour.

It was announced last night that actor Michael French would be reprising his role later this year for a short stint, a decade on from his last appearance. Taking to Instagram, Patsy posted a cryptic message alongside a photo of them both, reading ‘Every girl needs her Father.’ She followed it up with a new cast photo of David, saying: ‘I love you on screen papa. Friends for over 30 years and one of the best actors I know. Great shout [executive producer] Chris Clenshaw. Another spectacular casting.’ Father and daughter have somewhat of a chequered past, as when he was unaware of their relationship, he developed romantic feelings for her.
