Meanwhile, Jake actor Joel Beckett has addressed his comeback, saying "it was really lovely to step back onto the Square after all this time and revisit Jake".
"Being back working alongside familiar faces, as well as some brilliant new ones, was a real joy and it was good to know that Jake had been out there, alive and well," he added.
Joel further teased: "He returns carrying plenty of unanswered questions and the storyline takes him in some unexpected directions with real twists and turns. I’m excited for people to see what he’s been up to."
