"Unfortunately, no," says Clarke, when asked if Heather's return involves a Heather-Gil reunion. "But fortunately I think the storyline's pretty interesting." No doubt!

And to put a cherry on top of this TV sundae, CBS just confirmed to us that Lady Heather will indeed be back to CSI! Her episode is entitled "Unleashed," and it airs in April. We know, it's so far away.
