Dee-dee to the rescue!
James’ legal-eagle long-lost sister arrives in the nick of time…
It’s been a bit gloomy in the Bailey household since soccer star James collapsed on the pitch and had to have heart surgery.
The lad is in bits about his ruined career, so when his long-lost lawyer sister, Dee-dee, turns up, her arrival couldn’t have been better timed!
‘Dee-dee will bring a lot of fun and a lot of chaos, but in a good way hopefully,’ says Channique Sterlingbrown, who plays her.
Hardball
With James having been offered a paltry pay-off from his bosses at County, solicitor Dee-dee demands a meeting. Will she secure a better deal for her bro?
Unemployed James starts looking for work and ends up giving Lily Platt a football lesson… Has he found his calling?
Meanwhile, Dee-dee’s expertise is needed by the Nazirs, too.
‘She’s made a friend in Alya,’ adds Channique. ‘They’re delving into Stu’s case, looking to see if they can get him exonerated.’
Will Dee-dee be able to save the day twice?
