Jack Ryder set for doomed Doctors role

OHMYGOSSIP — Jack Ryder will play Charlotte Hill’s dead husband Grant in ‘Doctors’ as she looks to clear her name.
The former ‘EastEnders’ actor will be back in the world of soaps with his new role in a series of flashbacks as Charlotte – played by Debra Stephenson – tries to prove she wasn’t to blame for his death, and the actress thinks viewers will go “backwards and forwards”.
Speaking to Inside Soap, Debra said: “[Charlotte] was imprisoned for the murder of her husband Grant, but her conviction has been quashed because of a forensics mix-up.
“So she’s lonely and vulnerable and desperately trying to clear her name.
“Over the next few weeks, viewers will probably be going backwards and forwards with what they make of her. Is she capable of having murdered her husband, or is she a completely innocent woman who’s been hard done by?”
It’s said that Valerie Pitman (Sarah Moyle) will also be a suspect for his death, as viewers will find out she used to have a crush on Grant when they worked together.
Debra added: “Charlotte’s absolutely furious. She believes that Valerie killed Grant.
“Filming the flashbacks was great fun as we see that Charlotte was a real high-flyer before prison – she’s had a lot of money and success, and she power-dressed! And now she’s lost everything – her money, her power, her friends…”
Meanwhile, Jack – who played Jamie Mitchell in ‘EastEnders’ – will also be appearing on BBC’s ‘Holby City’ this year after it was confirmed he had signed on for the hospital soap.
‘Doctors’ airs on BBC every weekday at 1.45pm.
