Speaking to Coronation Street star, Jack P Shepherd on ITV’s Celebrity Big Brother, Palmer hinted about a change in roles.
Palmer has played the role of Bianca Jackson on EastEnders since 1993, but has told Shepherd that she could take the move away from London and join him on Corrie.
Talking in the Celebrity Big Brother kitchen, Palmer joked that she could “switch allegiances” and become a new partner of Shepherd’s character, David Platt.

Patsy Palmer hints at EastEnders exit and move to ITV soap
Palmer asked housemate Shepherd how to speak in a northern accent, seeing the Coronation Street actor teach her to say “Let’s have a bit of cake and some tea.”
The ITV soap actor seemed impressed with Palmer’s accent attempts as he stirred his tea.
It’s not the first time Palmer has hinted about leaving EastEnders behind, previously sharing that she thought it was a “shame” she could never leave the role of Bianca.
Sharing as she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house: “I think fans might think I’m quite feisty because of Bianca but I’m not really, I’m quite a calm person.
Adding: “[Bianca] can’t get her life together. She’s in fight or flight. I’m not in fight or flight.
“I’m not really zen, but I do like to try my best to follow that way of life, which is so different from the drama in her life!”
