BBC actor gets major new job only days after being fired from previous show.

After 24 years on the BBC daytime soap Doctors, Elisabeth Dermot Walsh bid farewell to her beloved character Dr. Zara Carmichael last week. But the talented actress wasted no time in securing her next role, proving that there is indeed "life after Letherbridge." Just one week after the final episode aired, Elisabeth delighted fans by announcing her involvement in the fourth series of the popular drama Sister Boniface Mysteries.

Taking to social media, Elisabeth shared the exciting news with her followers, reassuring those who were feeling the void left by the end of Doctors that they would be able to catch up with many of her former co-stars in new projects. She also hinted at her own new adventure, teasing a "delicious appearance" in the upcoming season of Sister Boniface Mysteries, set to be released in 2025. With a nod to the fictional town of Letherbridge, she playfully reminded fans that there is indeed life beyond the soap world.

Filming for the fourth season of Sister Boniface Mysteries, a spin-off of the long-running BBC mystery drama Father Brown, began earlier this summer, giving Elisabeth ample time to join the cast after wrapping up her time on Doctors in March. And she's not the only one branching out – her former co-star Ian Midlane, known for his role as Dr. Al Haskey, recently landed a role in the highly-anticipated Bridget Jones sequel, Mad About the Boy.

Sadly, Doctors was axed last year due to budget constraints, leaving the cast and crew feeling "bereaved" by the sudden end of their long-running show. Actor Chris Walker, who played police officer Rob Hollins since 2009, described the final days of filming as both emotional and uplifting – a bittersweet experience as they said goodbye to their beloved characters and each other.

But for fans of Elisabeth and the rest of the Doctors cast, there is still much to look forward to as they embark on new projects and continue to entertain audiences in different roles. And for those who may be feeling a little lost without their daily dose of Letherbridge drama, Elisabeth's role in Sister Boniface Mysteries is a perfect reminder that there is always life after the end of a beloved show. So stay tuned and keep an eye out for all the exciting things to come from this talented actress and her former co-stars.
