Actress Allison Janney says she would be "thrilled" to film more episodes of the West Wing.

The Emmy award winner played White House press secretary CJ Cregg in the hit political drama, which ran from 1999 to 2006.

Janney said the political situation in America ahead of the presidential election meant viewers were "wishing" for the return of fictional President Jed Bartlet, played by Martin Sheen.
