EastEnders has released new first-look images of the moment Sam Mitchell returns to Walford later this month on the BBC soap.
Kim Medcalf has reprised her role after nearly 17 years, and new spoiler images show the character back home.
It's said she brings trouble with her, and it's not long before she "reignites old feuds" in the square.
Sam was last seen in Walford in 2016, while she also made a reappearance in 2009 - but both times she was played by original actress Danniella Westbrook.
Now, Kim is back in the role again and heads to Albert Square very soon - while full details about Sam's comeback are being kept under wraps.
It's now been confirmed that the episode airing on Tuesday April 19 will see Sam back in Walford, as she returns home amid her brother Phil Mitchell being in prison.
She returns to the place where her son Ricky lives with his father Jack Branning, after years of being away.
The last time Sam was around, it was for the funeral of her mother Peggy Mitchell in 2016, played by late soap legend Dame Barbara Windsor.
Now, it's not entirely clear what has brought her back and what she has planned, but it's safe to say there's drama ahead.
The soap has teased "trouble" will arrive with Sam, who is about to "ruffle some feathers" - with it teased there could be a motive behind her sudden return.
Kim recently spoke about her soap comeback after nearly 20 years away from Walford, sharing her excitement play Sam again.
She said: "When the BBC approached me last year to reprise the role of Sam I was thrilled.
"She's a brilliant character and I can't wait to get back in the Square this spring and work with the amazing cast of both familiar and new faces."
BBC's head of continuing drama Kate Oates said of the decision: "The Mitchells are one of the most iconic families in soap, and I have long wanted to bring Sam back into the family fold.
"With Phil potentially facing a long spell inside, Sam arrives back in Walford ready to take what she sees as her rightful place in the Mitchell empire.
"But with strong grudges against Kat, Sharon, Jack and Denise, to name but a few, her return is guaranteed to be explosive…"
