EastEnders fans let out a gasp and said 'OMG' as they spotted a nod to the epic cliffhanger during the latest episode. The BBC One soap returned to screens on Tuesday night (February 21) after viewers were left with many questions following the first trip to Walford of the week the previous evening.
In an EastEnders first, Monday night's episode (February 20) ended with a lock-in at the Queen Vic for six iconic female characters, Linda Carter, Denise Fox, Kathy Beale, Sharon Watts, Stacey Slater and Suki Kaur, before the scene suddenly flashforwarded to Christmas 2023.
Viewers were stunned to see Sharon wearing a wedding dress which had been splattered with blood, leaning over a dead body and confirming "he's dead", while Stacey, who has found herself in a similar situation in the Albert Square boozer before, stood with blood-stained hands alongside Denise who held a broken champagne bottle.
