my Dobson plays a patient on Casualty in throwback clip
Casualty newcomer Sammy T Dobson has spoken out about

her first appearance in the show playing a patient called Emma

Gatts 18 years ago just as a clip of her performance has resurfaced.

A fan site for the show posted a snippet of the star in a guest role in the long-running BBC medical drama which aired on April 1, 2006.

Since then Sammy has landed a permanent part on the show and made her debut as junior doctor Nicole Piper a couple of weeks ago. Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, ahead of her first episode, she recalled being desperate to go back after her first appearance on the programme when she was just a teen.

“I really loved doing that two weeks that I was there and I said to my agent after I did the job, ‘how long is it before I can go back?’ And at the time it was two years I was like, ‘I’d really like to go back and be like a nurse or a doctor.’

“She was like, ‘Well if it ever comes up’. Obviously, more than a decade went by and I hadn’t given it any thought,” she laughed. However, there was no big reunion as all the cast members who were in her original scenes have since departed the show.

“I had just missed people or it was sort of a slightly different medical team that tended to me. Though Josh (Griffiths – played by Ian Bleasdale) was my paramedic – who came back for Charlie’s episode. He was such a lovely bloke,” she recalled.
