come into his life. It's nice to keep spicing things up, really." Return On 5 February 2004, it was confirmed that Danson would be reprising the role of Leanne. It was revealed that Danson would be returning to the show full-time. Danson commented on her return: "They're having a ball in this really seedy bar, eyeing up the ladies.
