Accoring to The Sun VETERAN actress Sylvia Syms will swap the Queen Mum for the Queen Vic — after landing a role in EastEnders.

The 73-year-old, who portrayed the Queen Mother in Oscar-winning film The Queen alongside Helen Mirren, plays a mystery character who comes in to help out Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor).

An insider said: “Sylvia plays a woman called Olive who is not related to any of the other characters.

“But she and Peggy have a connection which is part of a much bigger storyline.”

Sylvia will first appear in April and the BBC1 soap’s bosses are lining her up for several special episodes this year.

The London-born actress has been in a host of TV programmes including Judge John Deed and Family Affairs.

Her film career dates from the 1950s and includes a part in comedy Shirley Valentine.

I know it will be nice for Peggy have a good storyline that doesnt involved 'The Mitchells' in a way. I wonder what their relationship is-sounds good though indeed!

I wish they'd put her with Charlie. They're a good match, and it'd put the two remaining original Slaters back into the heart of EastEnders.

Plus, it gives Peggy the chance to be the wrong 'un. She'd get bored married to Charlie and look elsewhere (A return of Jack Edwards would nicely fit in here).

Im all for Peggy/Charlie-but they are so good as friends i just think it would be a disaster-shes so into be a woman-looking good, going on holidays etc etc-Charlie-well hes a bit of a bore. He needs a woman like Mo to lead him-charlie and his mother in law what?!

But yea a return from Jack would be super-shame it never worked! This new woman will be an old friend turned enemy or love rival i think....
