It was sweet reunion for two EastEnders icons as Lucy Benjamin and Elaine Lordan.
The Lisa Fowler actress, 54, shared a snap with Elaine, who played Lynne Hobbs from 2000 – 2004, smiling from ear to ear.
‘Oh I love this woman with all my heart!’ she captioned the post.
EastEnders fans were living for the reunion with @spiceyben commenting: ‘Oh this brings me so much joy!! It’s so lovely to see her looking so well. This is amazing xxx.’
@johniespill20 added:’ Please say it’s an EastEnders return miss seeing Elaine. X.’
@woodseywoo replied: ‘Aaaaah come back Lynne Slater!! That would be amazing! Xx.’
Lucy recently reprised her EastEnders role as Lisa Fowler who returned to our screens for a brief stint as she tried to extort money out of Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters).
However, things didn’t quite go to plan as her lies were rumbled by daughter Louise Mitchell, and Lisa was forced to flee back to Portugal before Keanu could get his hands on daughter Peggy.
Unfortunately, everything began to unravel as Lisa’s lies were exposed, and soon Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) was helping her leave the country.
Sharon’s involvement ultimately broke apart her relationship with Keanu, with the pair splitting up shortly after.
As for Elaine, she became a household name during her time on the soap, but has so far never returned to the character of Lynne.
The 57-year-old was back on screen a year after her EastEnders exit when she joined I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2005.
