Jennifer Saunders at the RTS programme awards 2006, London, England - 14.03.06

Saunders, who lends her voice to the role, was killed off at the end of the last movie when she tried to exterminate the green friendly monster, played by MIKE MYERS.

And the actress insists, despite her magical prowess on screen, she has not been invited to stage a return from the grave by film bosses.

She says, "Nope - she may be supernatural but she's dead and gone.

"Well they certainly haven't asked me to be in the next one at any rate."
