Since her return to Walford, Cindy has opened up a pie and mash shop with Ian while also attempting to patch things up with ex-husband George Knight, but has made no attempt to get behind the bar at the iconic pub.
One viewer asked Collins on X (formerly Twitter) if Cindy would ever be tempted to, but the star ruled out such a move, saying: “Ha ha! Thank you but I m not good with props, I worked in the #oldvic @bbceastenders years ago I got sacked for breaking too many glasses!”
One fan pointed out that Collins had also worked behind another famous bar, referring to her stint as Stella Price in ITV soap Coronation Street, with the actor admitting that she had “forgot” her character worked at The Rovers.
