Thursday, April 25 marks the beginning of Jennifer Bassey‘s (ex-Marian Colby, “All My Children”) multi-episode arc on ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy.” Word of Bassey’s appearance on the popular primetime series first came to light on Sunday, March 17, when the actress tweeted, “Got a two episode role on Grey’s Anatomy. Wonderful part and i’m very excited. Start mon. the 18th. what a great show. xx :)” She later revealed on Wednesday, March 27 that her appearance on the show had been bumped to three episodes. “Hey just got a 3rd episode on Grey’s Anatomy. Yipeeee!!! What a great group of people. Kevin McKidd is directing and acting. Hes fab. :)”

According to a network spokesperson, in the episode entitled “Sleeping Monster,” Bassey will portray the role of Nancy Dawson, the grandmother of Ethan Dawson (Kyle Silverstein) who came to Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital in the Thursday, March 28 episode (“Can’t Fight This Feeling”) with his parents who were severely injured after a gas tanker exploded. McKidd’s character, Dr. Owen Hunt, has been working tirelessly to aid Ethan during his time of need including postponing a social worker assigned to take care of his predicament by pretending Ethan was ill in order to keep him in the hospital and close to his parents during the Thursday, April 4 episode (“She’s Killing Me”).
