Tori Spelling Looking Forward To 90210

Former BEVERLY HILLS, 90210 star TORI SPELLING can't wait to start work on the forthcoming spin-off - comparing it to revisiting a beloved childhood memory.

The actress - whose late father, TV producer Aaron Spelling, created the original show - confirmed rumours in May (08) she would join her pal Jennie Garth, who plays Kelly Taylor, in the forthcoming programme.

And the star is excited about playing her original character Donna - despite not knowing anything about the show's plotline.

She tells OK! magazine, "It's like getting the chance to visit an old childhood memory. When I heard about the show, there was no hesitation. I was like: 'I have to do this for the fans.'

"I know Donna is in fashion - that's it! I don't know if she and David are married still."
