In the pics, Luisa is sat on the sofa acting out the scenes - with her co-star Danny Dyer replaced by a white mannequin.

She captioned the pic: "The new normal on set. Me and @officialdannydyer it’s either that or a tennis ball on a pole…. I went for the DD t*ts….. 🥴"

EastEnders returned to filming on June 29 after it was cancelled due to lockdown restrictions.

The number of weekly episodes slashed in an effort to keep the show on air for as long as possible.

But the final pre-lockdown episode aired on June 16, forcing the soap to go off air for the first time in its 35-year history.

Now filming has restarted with a strict set of rules - including having to stay two metres apart at all times.

The Bad Girls actress has been spending lockdown at home with her wife of 20 years Annette and her two daughters, aged 16 and 17.

She and Annette adopted the sisters when they were aged just three and four years old, with Luisa previously telling: "We saw a picture and I burst into tears.

"I knew the girls were my children. I’d bought them clothes before we had even been approved to have them."

Luisa and Annette have been together for over 20 years; they had a civil partnership in 2006 and officially got married in 2015 - where their daughters were bridesmaids.
