A frantic Suzie Fraser (Juliet Cadzow) was stunned in tonight's episode when celebrity guest Susan Boyle arrived to model for a charity calendar.
Susan Boyle superfan Duncan Campbell-Baxter (John Bett) followed Susan to Sheildinch where he came face-to-face with someone from his past - Scarlett O'Hara (Sally Howitt).
BBC Scotland have released special behind-the-scenes photos of Susan Boyle, on-set, from her time at River City for her loyal fans and supporters to enjoy.
She can be seen with Stephen Purdon (who portrays Bob O'Hara), Scott Fletcher (who portrays Angus Lindsay), Juliet Cadzow (who portrays Suzie Fraser), Frank Gallagher (who portrays Lenny Murdoch) and an array of River City's production crew.
Lovely to see Susan Boyle on River City tonight and looking so well

Next week in River City, Ellie faces the reality of her IVF journey, and Caitlin has a choice to make - hold on to their feud, or be there to support her sister. Meanwhile, Kim struggles to see how they will all fit into the flat with a new baby, when some chilling news puts the future of their family in jeopardy. Lenny and Karen work together to mend his fractured relationship with Jessie and, as Stevie puts Sam first, Scarlett's past catches up with her.
River City returns Monday 13 December 2021 - at 22:00 - on BBC Scotland.
