EastEnders denies Spencer Moon return

EastEnders bosses this afternoon denied rumours that Chris Parker is to make a comeback on the BBC soap.

According to a Sunday tabloid today, the 26-year-old has been approached to reprise his Albert Square role as Spencer Moon alongside Shane Richie & Jessie Wallace, who return as Kat and Alfie Moon later this year.

However a BBC spokesperson this afternoon told DS: “There are absolutely no plans to bring Chris Parker – or the character of Spencer Moon – back to EastEnders.” Parker was written out of the show in 2005 after a failed suicide attempt by the actor.
