First Look: Shirley Jones Guests on General Hospital

Look who's got some hot scoop for the Port Charles Police Department! Oscar winner and sitcom icon Shirley Jones — yep, Mama Partridge herself — will guest star on General Hospital Feb. 5 as Mrs. McClain, a lonely widow who sees something strange and disconcerting while visiting her husband's grave.

Look who's got some hot scoop for the Port Charles Police Department! Oscar winner and sitcom icon Shirley Jones — yep, Mama Partridge herself — will guest star on General HospitalFeb. 5 as Mrs. McClain, a lonely widow who sees something strange and disconcerting while visiting her husband's grave.

A rep for the ABC soap tells TV Guide Magazine exclusively that Mrs. McLain "comes across a suspicious gravedigger late one night at the cemetery and takes her suspicions to Dante Falconeri [Dominic Zamprogna] at the PCPD, thinking this might have something to do with the fugitive the police are looking for."

Hmmm...could that gravedigger be on-the-lam nutcase Heather Webber [Robin Mattson]? Does Mrs. McClain hold the cards to solving the mysterious disappearance of Carly Jacks [Laura Wright]?

This isn't Jones' first dip in the suds, by the way. Back in 2008, the actress played Irish matriarch Colleen Brady on several episodes of NBC's Days of Our Lives.
