Roxanne Pallett is back on TV with Celebrity Coach Trip
Celebrity Coach Trip welcomed Roxanne Pallett to the group in tonight's (January 23) episode.
The former Emmerdale actress caused a tidal wave of controversy last year during her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother – where she accused fellow soap star Ryan Thomas of violent behaviour.
Mass criticism followed as it turned out that Ryan had merely jokingly tapped her, and she's since gone into self-imposed exile from the media spotlight ever since.
Roxanne's arrival has sparked something of a mixed response between Celebrity Coach Trip viewers, but those in the know will already be aware that her stint on the show was actually filmed prior to her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother.
Check out some of the reactions doing the rounds on Twitter.

During the episode, the team of celebs went subwing diving and also had a cheeky little wine tasting session – where Jedward took the role of bartenders.
Roxanne had an experience to forget in the sea though, as whilst she glided along the surface her bikini bottoms came off! Tour organiser Brendan Sheerin promised not to look as he dived down to retrieve them.
Afterwards, he eloquently reflected: "I didn't want to see her chutney piece in all of its glory."
Roxanne and former Britain's Got Talent star George Sampson – who she's partnered up with – chose to vote for Charlotte Crosby and Josh Ritchie at the end of the episode.
Unhappy with the choice and accusing the pair of a personal attack, Charlotte told the cameras: "She plays it all sweet and innocent, then she stabs you right in the back!"
Celebrity Coach Trip airs on E4.
