Michelle Keegan has reportedly booked a lead role in the BBC drama series “Our Girl” replacing actress Lacey Turner who played the lead role of Molly Dawes in the first-part five series in 2014. Due to her commitment with EastEnders, Turner decided not to return for the 2nd part series. The new second five-part series will be about the medics in the British Army. Keegan is set to play the role of an army medic, Corporal Georgie Lane who will be on a very risky and dangerous mission in Kenya. The filming of the second-part series of the army show will commence next year in January 2016, and will hit screens in late 2016.

Wife of Mark Wright who has over 3 Million Twitter and 1.9 M Instagram followers, is very excited about her upcoming show. This is the second time she is working with the television channel BBC One. She has previously worked with them earlier this year in the first series of “Ordinary Lies”, where she appeared as Tracy. So, it comes as no surprise why they chose her to replace the current star of EastEnders, actress Lacey Turner. Only the talented actress could fill her shoes.
