Eastenders alum Tony Discipline is returning to screens after ditching acting for a career as a fireman.

The actor first rose to prominence on the long-running BBC soap as Alfie Moon's (played by Shane Ritchie) cousin, Tyler Moon.

However, after his relationship with Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) ended, he left Walford in 2013 to join his brother on a cruise ship.

Following his departure from the soap, Tony turned his back on acting and ventured into a new career as a firefighter and the occasional shift as a barman.

Now 11 years later, the 35-year-old will be making his TV comeback and will star in BBC 's Doctors for its final year on the broadcast channel .

Tony will portray David Marsden, who is looking for his wife Luella (Lisa Greenwood) who enters The Mill with a cut on her forehead.
