Dot Branning has been missing off our screens since Abi Branning's funeral, leading to reports that the actor had left.
Thankfully, June Brown is back, and she's not alone! - Doctor Legg, played by Leonard Fenton, will be back on our screens in the autumn as part of an emotional storyline.
Although EastEnders are keeping tight-lipped over the exact details, the storyline follows Dot as she pays Doctor Legg a visit.
As she rings the bell, Dot is disappointed when there's no answer, but just as she gives up, her old friend opens the door.

A touching moment between the pair sparks the emotional storyline, but what has brought them back together?
Doctor Legg appeared in the very first episode of EastEnders, way back in 1985, serving Walford as the local GP until 1997.
The actor then showed up on and off until 2007. Speaking to Digital Spy, June said: "It's been 11 years since Dot last visited her favourite doctor, Doctor Legg, and it's an utter delight to be working with Leonard Fenton again in 2018."
