Casualty’s Charles Venn has weighed in on the

potential return of Amanda Mealing’s character Connie Beauchamp.

The senior consultant in emergency medicine

was last seen in Holby City Hospital three years

ago, leaving behind the embers of a romance between herself and Venn’s paramedic Jacob Masters.

While speaking to TV Times, the actor was asked if he agrees whether there’s some unfinished business, replying: “100 per cent. The flame between Connie and Jacob still burns.

“They are soulmates and there’s nobody in Jacob’s life that moves him as emotionally or touches him in the way Connie did. It would be amazing to see where the ground lies with them.”

Venn went on to state: “I’d love for it to happen. I am on standby and game for that!”

Further along, the former Strictly Come Dancing contestant revealed that he was still in touch with co-star Mealing.

“She’s been giving me sage advice on a short film I’m making at the moment,” he said. “All I can say about it for now is that it’s a psychological thriller and I’ve written it, am producing, directing, co-starring and scoring the music for it. So it’s a lot!”
