EastEnders star Kellie Bright said she is 'honoured' to play a part in another huge soap storyline this year.
On Monday night's episode of the BBC soap, which coincided with EastEnders 38th anniversary, viewers were transported from a lock-in at the Queen Vic to Christmas Day 2023. The scene saw Linda, Sharon Watts, Denise Fox Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar, and Kathy Beale all looking concerned and crowded around a dead body.
Viewers watched as Stacey held out her hands, soaked in blood, while Denise's hand shook as she gripped a broken bottle. Sharon donned a blood stained wedding dress as she crouched down to inspect the mystery person on the floor and picked up one of his arms, where an amber cufflink could be seen before pronouncing: "He's dead."
