Kat is returning to Albert Square after a lengthy break, along with Big Mo, played by Laila Morse.

Jessie, 46, has now declared BBC bosses should bring back more members of the Slater family.

She wants to see Kat's daughter Zoe, played by Michelle Ryan, back in Walford along with sisters Lynne (Elaine Jordan) and Little Mo (Kacey Ainsworth).

The actress told The Mirror: "I’d love Michelle, Kacey and Elaine Lordan, but I’m sure they’re busy doing other stuff.

"We’ve got a new Slater, Hayley, played by Katie Jarvis, who is fantastic.

"We’ve done a few scenes together and she’s a perfect Slater."

Jessie added of the new storylines for the Slaters: "We’re going back to our roots 18 years ago, with the hustle and bustle of the Slaters, supporting each other, arguing with each other, laughing, it’s just great."
