In Christmas 2008 Nick Cotton, played by John Altman returned to EastEnders.[4] After spending time in Walsall, Nick would return with an eight-year-old daughter, Dotty.[5] The part of Dotty was cast to Conlin, who was 7 at the time.[3] Speaking of her casting, Conlin said, "I'm really excited about it because I have always wanted to be in EastEnders."[3] Conlin was considered too old for the part of Tiffany Dean which she a previously auditioned for but she succeeded in impressing the producers, who offered her the role of Dotty instead.[3] The part of Tiffany went to Maisie Smith.[6] Dotty was originally eleven years old, but on Conlin's casting, they changed her age to seven.[3] Introduced as a guest character by Santer[7] she made her first appearance on 26 December 2008.[8] She started to appear more frequently, becoming a recurring character, until Dotty later left on 23 February 2010.[9]
