A Two Doors Down star has won a BAFTA after her triumphant return to the beloved sitcom.
Doon Mackichan scooped the Actress Television award on Sunday night's BAFTA Scotland ceremony at the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in Glasgow.
The actress won for her role as Cathy in the hit BBC series, which aired for seven series before the tragic death of the show's writer Simon Carlyle.
Fans were delighted when Doon returned to Latimer Crescent for the seventh season last year, as Cathy previously left her husband Colin broken-hearted by jetting off to Egypt.
Previously speaking about her return, Doon said: "I have missed the Two Doors Down family very much so it’s a genuine delight to see Cathy bring her unique brand of community spirit back to Latimer Crescent. Beth - get a bottle open."

Other BAFTA Scotland winners included Ashley Storrie, who won two awards for her comedy series Dinosaur.
The comic dedicated her win to her late mother Janey Godley, who passed away earlier this month after battling ovarian cancer.
She said that her mother was “in the room tonight” and that “she’s in my DNA”.
Ashley added: “She would say ‘well done, I’m very proud’ and then turn around and say ‘that’s my daughter’ and make it all about her.”
She joked that her mother would have been trying to set her up at the awards by talking about her cooking skills, and said the pair had gate-crashed a Bafta party after Janey claimed to be Elaine C Smith.
David Tennant received the award for Actor Television for his role in There She Goes, while The Agency: Unfiltered picked up the gong for Entertainment.
The News and Current Affairs award went to Catching a Killer: The Murder of Emma Caldwell (Disclosure).
Float received the award for Television Scripted, and Out of Darkness scooped a total of three awards on the night.
The film was awarded for Feature Film and its two young leads, Kit Young and Safia Oakley-Green, triumphed in the Actor Film and Actress Film categories respectively.
