Linda Robson has teased an on-screen reunion with her Birds of a Feather co-star Lesley Joseph.
The Loose Women star, 65, has revealed that she is hoping to reunite with her sitcom co-star Lesley, 78, for a brand new series.
The friends previously reunited on-screen for Race Across Yorkshire and Linda said they are hoping to join forces for a reality TV show.
She told Woman Magazine: ‘I’m hoping to do a series with Lesley […] It is sort of in the pipeline now.
‘We did Race Across Yorkshire together and the BBC were very pleased with how we interacted, so they’re trying to get something together for us, which would be really nice.’

When asked what the show would be, she replied: ‘A reality series doing a bucket list, or things to do before we die.’
The friends recently enjoyed a balmy summer holiday together, with Linda taking to Instagram to give an insight into their trip.
In the sunny shots, the duo could be seen sipping on creamy cocktails and smiling while bottles of wine were being chilled.
Linda captioned her happy snaps: ‘Beautiful trip away with my best mate Les #westendboys.’
In Birds of a Feather, Linda played Tracey Stubbs, alongside her on-screen sister Sharon Theodopolopodous, (Pauline Quirke), while Lesley played their neighbour Dorien Green.
Last summer, Linda shut down rumours of a rift with Pauline as she took to Instagram share a nostalgic snap as they enjoyed a reunion lunch with Lesley in London’s Covent Garden.
Writing on her post as she cuddled up to her former TV colleagues, Linda penned: ‘A lovely lunch with my beautiful friends in the @thedelaunay.’

In 2021, it was reported that Linda and Pauline were no longer on speaking terms, with it alleged that things became so heated that the childhood friends had to be separated by crew members during filming at Teddington Studios.
Pauline was then absent from the 2020 Birds of a Feather special – sparking rumours of a fallout.
Addressing the supposed rift, Linda told The Mirror: ‘People say Pauline and I have fallen out.
‘Obviously I couldn’t see her during lockdown but I’ve seen her since. She just doesn’t want to act anymore. She’s had enough – it’s long hours.’
Linda added that Pauline has taken a step back from acting to concentrate on her drama academies, adding that the actress is ‘very hands on’ with the project.
Birds of a Feather ran for 12 seasons, between 1989 and 2020 with the last episode being a special that aired in December 2020 with Tracey and Dorien coping with lockdown amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

In February 2022, writer Laurence Marks confirmed he would never write another episode.
He told the Daily Star: ‘You move on. I can’t imagine what more we could say. Also, the girls are very much older.
‘When we created Sharon and Tracey, they were kids in their 20s. They had a whole sexual life in front of them and the show was all about sex. Now they’re women in their 60s, so it’s a different sort of series.’
