EastEnders favourite Spencer Moon was last seen in Albert Square over two decades ago.
Actor Christopher Parker played the cheeky chappy for three years from 2002 until 2005 when he left Walford with his girlfriend Vicki Fowler with the pair opening a bar in Australia.
This week, Vicki (Alice Haig) returns with some unexpected news about Spencer but is she telling the truth?
Spencer's brother Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) and Vicki's sister Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) are shocked to hear that the couple are no longer together and the true reason behind their split is set to be revealed in upcoming scenes of the BBC soap.
Since leaving EastEnders, actor Chris worked as a presenter on CD:UK, MTV News, CBBC with Fearne Cotton, Radio Disney and as an entertainment presenter on ITV's This Morning.
He also hosted an hour long special called Bond is Back for American television about the latest James Bond film, Casino Royale.
Chris appeared on CBBC on Hider in the House, ITV2's Deadline and BBC's Hotel Babylon opposite fellow EastEnders alumni Danny Dyer and hosted a weekly show on Gala Bingo's TV channel.
In 2010, it was reported that EastEnders producers were considering bringing Spencer back.
However, a spokesperson denied the report at the time, saying: "There are absolutely no plans to bring Chris Parker – or the character of Spencer Moon – back to EastEnders."
Chris has since quit acting and graduated from from Birkbeck University with a law degree before becoming a solicitor. Since 2022, he has been a Senior Consultant at Ignition Law.
The company's website states Chris trained at London media firm, Clintons, where he "advised on multiple litigation matters, including those involving high profile individuals".
He also has "several years' experience leading an in-house legal department with a particular focus on commercial and media law" as well as "valuable experience on secondment at a global film company".
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One and available to stream on BBC iPlayer from 6am
