Celebrity chef Rustie Lee is set to join the cast of 'EastEnders', as Gus Smith's feisty aunt.
According to the show's official website, the 54-year-old will play a character called Opal for two episodes, which will be screened in April.
Lee said: "I'm absolutely over the moon to think I'm going to be in the Square. I can't wait."
Actor Mo George, who plays Lee's on-screen nephew Gus, will be leaving the show soon.
