Martine is best known for her iconic acting roles and music career, but has been out of the spotlight for the past 15 years.

Following a sudden split from her husband after 18 years together, Martine has made a comeback - advertising for the budget superstore.

Wearing a stunning silver-sequinned jumpsuit, Martine sings and dances to the smash hit - which is littered with fun lyric changes, including: "Savings you just can't ignore."

A spokesman for the supermarket explained: "Found your new favourite song, babes x Introducing our new absolute banger starring the icon that is Martine McCutcheon - as well as a few other familiar faces - Gareth (founder of Huns Net), Charity Shop Sue (notorious bargain lover) and Diane from the Traitors (Faithful Hun).

Martine rose to fame playing Tiffany Mitchell in EastEnders for four years.

After leaving the BBC One soap, she had a No1 single in 1999 with This Is My Moment and her portrayal of Eliza Doolittle in a West End production of My Fair Lady won her an Olivier Award in 2002.

She then found worldwide fame when she landed the role of Natalie in Love, Actually.
