Iconic soap star Wendi Peters has joined the cast of Doctors, and is set to appear in the show in the New Year.
Peters is perhaps best known for playing loud and brash Cilla Battersby on Coronation Street, but she'll be swapping the Cobbles for The Mill in February 2023.
She'll be playing Dr Nina Bulsara, a chatterbox who has an opinion on everything and everyone.
Though Nina can be overbearing and inappropriate at times, she's a ray of light and will always find the positive in any difficult situation - and she's bound to be a great addition to the team.

Speaking of her exciting Doctors role, Peters said: "I am thrilled to be joining the wonderful Doctors team to play Dr Nina Bulsara - a woman on a mission who always seems to get what she wants!"
Mike Hobson, executive producer of Doctors, added: "We are absolutely delighted to welcome Wendi to the Doctors cast. She is a familiar face every soap fan will recognise, and we know she will be brilliant in this role. Wendi joins as Dr Nina Bulsara who is a feisty busybody who wants to be respected. She is bound to ruffle a few feathers at The Mill."
Doctors is made by BBC Studios and airs Monday to Friday at 1:45pm on BBC One.
