Although Lisa has been sworn to secrecy and refuses to divulge any deets about her upcoming role, the show has thrown some crumbs to loyal fans.

Apparently Fi comes to town with an agenda, and while being a tough cookie, she hides a more vulnerable side.

Gorgeous Lisa began modeling at the tender age of 16, then transitioned into a successful television career.  Her small screen credits include, “Spooks,” “Holby City,” and “Death in Paradise.”  

Her career took a new turn in 2010 when she won, “Celebrity MasterChef.” Since then she’s been involved in multiple foodie projects, including co-hosting, “Real Food Family Cook Off.”

In addition, Lisa has written a number of cook books. Her partner is well-known television chef John Torode.

Will Lisa and former Blue singer Lee Ryan interact on screen? He’s set to play Woody, described as a hardcore bad boy. Lee, like Lisa, will also debut this spring; a coincidence?
