Looks like Alex Kingston is back in America (at least part-time).

"Borrowed" from alt.tv.scifi ...


"Arrow" scoop: "ER" actress is Laurel's mom
-------------------------------------------
Want to meet Laurel Lance's missing mother?

Former ER series regular Alex Kingston is joining The CW's
breakout superhero drama "Arrow" in a recurring guest star
role. The British actress will play Dinah Lance - Laurel's
(Katie Cassidy) mom and Detective Quentin's (Paul
Blackthorne) ex-wife. Later this season Dinah will return
to Starling City to make amends with her family that she
abandoned years earlier following the tragic death of her
daughter aboard Oliver Queen's (Stephen Amell) yacht.

In addition to her years on ER, Kingston recently earned
some geek cred in a recurring role on the BBC's "Doctor Who".
While "Arrow" returned to Wednesday nights last week after
its winter break to deliver a ratings gain, which is always
great to see.

Does that mean Kingston is playing the original Black Canary, given they
don't seen to want "Dinah Laurel" to be Canary? I still don't understand
why anyone thought making Canary's occasional sidekick (with his boxing
glove arrows etc) into the main character was a good idea...
