The timing couldn't be better for Mark. His wife Michelle Keegan is about to jet off to film new scenes for Our Girl. The 29-year-old actress, who plays Lance Corporal Georgie Lane in the programme, is set to fly to Nepal, South Africa and Malaysia for the upcoming series. Michelle will be away from home for around eight months in total; she will initially spend three months away before returning for some summer engagements, and will then jet off again. Michelle recently met up with her Our Girl co-stars for the first script read-through of season three. Sharing a photo of the get-together on her HELLO! Online blog, she wrote: "Here we all are at the read-through. The scripts and story for the next series is fantastic, we were all buzzing afterwards."
