-== 2007 Departure (Late Winter) ==
-Nana returned for the family's Christmas and Boxing Day celebrations. Neither she nor the rest of the family realised their guest, Niall Rafferty (Barry Sloane), was the son Nana had forced Myra to give up at birth. During the dinner, Nana toasted [[Tina Reilly]] ([[Leah Hackett]]) for being a surrogate for [[Jacqui McQueen]] ([[Claire Cooper]]) and her boyfriend [[Tony Hutchinson]] ([[Nick Pickard]]). Myra got upset and left the table. Nana found her in the bathroom, weeping over old newspaper clippings of the child she had given up at birth. Myra told her mother she could never forgive her, or herself. Nana told her to quit complaining and that she had been right to give up the child. Myra slapped her and Nana slapped her back, leaving as she refused to be treated in such a manner.

-== Hollyoaks The Game Bio ==
-Nana appears in Hollyoaks the Game, and her bio appears as this.
-"There's more to this glam nan than dollies and boiled sweets.
-Feisty, single-minded and forever with a scam up her sleeve, Marlena McQueen, or simply 'Nana', is a Hollyoaks legend.
-From trying it on with her granddaughter's boyfriend, to robbing her own house in a bid to claim the insurance money; Nana's behaviour is nothing short of outrageous.
-But despite her prickly exterior, there's a big, loving heart hiding behind the gold chains and lashings of lycra.
-No one knows what she's got up her brightly coloured sleeve, but one things for sure: there's never a dull moment when Nana's about."<p style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:19.1875px;font-family:sans-serif;"></p>[[Category:McQueen Family]]
