EastEnders has revealed a first look at Kim Fox's surprise return to Albert Square later this month in a new photo.
Kim, played by Tameka Empson, will surprise everyone when she unexpectedly returns from Scotland. But the surprises are far from over as she quickly discovers what she's missed in Albert Square.
Kim looks delighted to be back as she breezes into Walford decked out in tartan but she'll have a lot to catch up on when she returns, particularly when it comes to her sister Denise Fox (Diane Parish).

Denise now has custody of her young son Raymond, who she gave up for adoption shortly after his birth, following the tragic deaths of his adoptive parents.
Denise is now adjusting to caring for Raymond and trying to bond with her son, who she shares with Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden), with scenes airing next week set to show her visiting the church where Raymond's adoptive father was a pastor in order to find out more about Raymond's life with his adoptive family.
What to Read Next
Kim, who will certainly be surprised to see Raymond back with Denise, departed the Square in summer 2019 after taking a new job in Scotland, after actress Tameka decided to take a break from the soap.
It was confirmed in July that Tameka was reprising her role once again and would be back on screens later in the year.
Actress Diane revealed during an episode of EastEnders: Secrets from the Square this summer that she and Tameka have a "very special partnership", saying: "We understand each other, have a great respect for each other's work, and respect for our differences, and I think people enjoy getting a little glimpse into what we are like".
EastEnders will air Kim's return on Monday, November 16 at 8.05pm on BBC One.
