Lacey Turner has shared which former co-stars she would love to come back. Actress Lacey shot to fame playing Stacey Slater on ’s EastEnders - making her debut in 2004. And it’s fair to say she has gone on to become one of the soap’s most-loved stars.
Over the years, Lacey’s had some big storylines too playing Stacey. From her bipolar battle and many affairs to murder, Stacey’s time in Walford has not been short of drama. And during her 17-year-stint on the show, Lacey has seen a slew of characters come and go.
But according to the actress, there are two actors she would “love more than anything” to make a comeback. Speaking on Isolation Interviews, Lacey was quizzed on which former EastEnders colleague she’d love to bring back. She said: “Jake Wood and Jo Joyner definitely!” Fans will recall Jake played Stacey’s lover Max Branning, while Jo played his wife Tanya.
Lacey explained: “I love working with Jake, he never does the same thing twice. “So what’s lovely about Jake is you always have to listen to him, sometimes your lines just come out without you thinking, but with Jake you have to listen. He’s so fantastic, as is Jo!” And it turns out Lacey is so keen for the pair to make a return - that she’s even had talks with them to come back to the soap.
Lacey added: “I mean I would love more than anything for Jo to come back. “Then you’d have the whole Branning family back together. You’ve got Lauren.
We just need Jake and Jo! We have t.
