Former
Family Affairs actress, Anna Acton, embarks on a different affair when
she joins The Bill in June.Anna will play the part of Rochelle Barratt, an ex-addict turned drug referral worker. Her loving police superintendent husband, Ian - from a nearby station - helped her through the traumatic time but she throws it all back in his face by having an affair with a another officer.
Anna, who starred as Geri Evans in the Five soap, said: "Landing the part of Rochelle was made even more exciting because it was completely whirlwind.
"And as The Bill’s filmed at the same studio as Family Affairs, even though I'm the new girl in Sun Hill, I'm with old friends and in familiar surroundings."
