Revealing that storylines tend to be kept well under wraps until two weeks before filming, Helen said: "We get the scripts a couple of weeks before we film them, so honestly I don't really know. Christmas is lovely for Trixie, there's some lovely stuff going on. Heidi [Thomas, the show's creator] just writes so well for the character.
"And there's always a surprise – every series I go, 'Oh my God, you're kidding me, that's going to happen to Trixie?' So I think that's what keeps the character kind of stretched," she told at the BFI & Radio Times Television Festival.
At the same event, Heidi confirmed that Trixie will return to Poplar with a big storyline. "Trixie rejoins us," she explained. "And something interesting and rather wonderful will happen for Trixie this series, so she has big news coming up - which we probably won't unveil just yet."
