We've missed her!

This storyline was written in to cover actress Lucy Pargeter’s maternity leave.

She welcomed twin baby girls – Missy and Betsy – in April.

But now she’s ready to come back to work.

Chas will storm back into the village to sort out her broken family – including her eternally troubled son – and her mother, Faith, who has now taken root.

She announced her return on Twitter, writing: “Big day tomorrow my beautiful twirls turn 5 months and I go back to work!!

“Huge mix of emotions. I’m going to miss them so much. #workingmum.”

The soap fave recently gave an interview to OK! magazine about the births.

“It was a planned Caesarean as the girls were both breech. I got to 37 weeks – which is when they usually want to take out twins,” she explained.

“I wanted to watch the whole thing but they put a screen up when you’re having a C-section and it couldn’t be lowered quite enough for me to see.

“I was gutted I didn’t get to watch them being born. You feel everything with a natural birth and I couldn’t with a C-section, so I would’ve liked to watch it.”
