George Clooney scrubs up again

Hold on to your heart monitors… “Gorgeous George” is back as Dr Ross!

He may now be an Oscar-winning movie star, but George Clooney is set to make surgical scrubs sexy once again, after agreeing to return to ER — the TV show that made him famous.

The actor-director is filming a cameo role as Dr Doug Ross in the 15th and final season of the Nine Network medical drama.

Producers of the show tried desperately to keep George’s return a secret, even insisting that he work on a closed set on the Warner Bros lot. But as these exclusive photos show, the 47-year-old heart-throb is clearly relaxed and delighted to be back in such familiar territory.

No details have been revealed about the plot — but insiders say Dr Ross will be reunited with his former love Carol Hathaway, played by Julianna Margulies, who was also wooed back.
