FAMILY TIES - JUSTINE BATEMAN TO APPEAR ON ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT

Former FAMILY TIES star JUSTINE BATEMAN has signed up to make a guest appearance on her younger brother JUSTIN's acclaimed US TV show ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT.

The episode, which will air in the US on 9 January (06), features Jason's character investigating the possibility that he might have a long-lost older sister named NELLIE BLUTH, played by his real-life sibling Justine.

Last year (04), Jason stunned fans when he revealed that he'd planned to bring Justine onto his show as his love interest.

He said, "She wants to get back into acting now and we would make her some sort of religious zealot that makes it taboo to kiss, touch, do anything before you're married so that's the way we'd get around anything unseemly."
