WARNING: Contains spoilers. Also contains images some may find disturbing

Not sure if we mentioned it (here, here, here and here) but Cagney & Lacey star Sharon Gless is making a special guest appearance in Casualty.

It turns out doctor Dylan Keogh (William Back) has been keeping a massive secret since Charlie’s stag do. He covertly arranged for Robyn’s boyfriend Glen (Owain Arthur) to have life-saving brain surgery. Dylan’s mentor Zsa Zsa (Sharon Gless) flew to the UK, performed the risky op, and ever since Dylan’s been helping Glen with his lengthy recovery!

In this week’s Casualty Glen turns up to see Robyn on the day of his daughter’s christening. But first he has a LOT of explaining to do…
