Barbara WindsorBabs Is Fighting FitBarbara Windsor could be set for an EastEnders return after being given a clean bill of health by medics.    

The veteran Cockney actress was forced to leave the ailing BBC soap when she was diagnosed with the debilitating Epstein-Barr virus.


But she has revealed she is completely free of the disease and raring to get back to work - but only if the job is right.   

Appearing on ITV1's Paul O'Grady Show, she said: "Before I sit down I've got some really great news.   

"You know that Epstein-Barr - that nasty virus I had - well, I got my blood test results back yesterday and it's gone. I can't tell you how great it is."   

EastEnders' viewing figures have been in freefall in recent months - and show bosses could call on popular Babs to arrest the slump.   

She made a brief comeback for daughter Sam's wedding to villain Andy Hunter.   

But the actress has said a full-time return is not guaranteed because she is unhappy with the direction the soap has taken lately.   

"EastEnders - it's just not been right," she said in a recent interview. "I'm not under contract but when they sort themselves out, who knows."
