The actress has confirmed she won't be back for future seasons, adding her return for the anniversary was "enough". Speaking to Radio Times about her reprisal, Amanda said: "I was invited to come back, which was pretty gorgeous and took me by surprise.
"The team confirmed that it was going to be a very interesting story arc over six episodes, and if I didn't jump and do it, it would be something I would regret."
