Lovely Lea Michele – who plays Rachel Berry in the hit show – is particularly looking forward to having Gwynnie back, gushing about her in a recent interview.

‘Oh my God, that was so unbelievable. Half the time I was like... all that was processing in my head over and over again [was], "That's Gwyneth Paltrow. That's Gwyneth Paltrow". It's so unbelievable,’ she said of the star’s cameo in the show.

‘She came in and just blew the roof off this place. I'm telling you, no one has come in and has done what Gwyneth did.

‘She came in, totally not intimidated by anything and she went from doing Cee Lo to Chicago and just totally did it with ease and grace like she'd been here every day before that.

‘She's just so sweet and I can't wait to have her back.’

'Great dancer, great singer, obviously a great actress – I just had the best time.’
