EastEnders The Six stars drop more clues about identity of Christmas body
The stars of EastEnders have dropped more clues about the identity of the dead body this Christmas.
Denise (Diane Parish), Kathy (Gillian Taylforth), Linda (Kellie Bright), Sharon (Letitia Dean), Stacey (Lacey Turner) and Suki (Balvinder Sopal) will all stand front and centre of a big Christmas storyline on the BBC soap, as we finally learn the truth of what happened to one as yet unknown male, who will die this festive season in shocking scenes in the Queen Vic.
Ahead of the big reveal, the Six stars have opened up about their own reactions to learning about the true identity of the dead man - and also who wielded the fatal blow and killed them. The big reveal will take place this Christmas Day - but the Six have been dropping hints about who it will be, as they shared their own reaction to the big reveal.
Asked how she felt when she found out, Letitia - who plays Sharon - said: "Shocked! I was not expecting it, and I don’t think any of us were! I’m excited to see how it will play out as I think the viewers are going to love it. Although, it was easier not knowing as now I’m scared to open my mouth in case I say something I shouldn’t!"
EastEnders' Jake Wood's snap of son has fans pointing out the pair's likenessGillian - who plays Kathy - warned people to "except the unexpected", as she added: "We’ve all been guessing just as much as the viewers, so it was great to finally know. I had my predictions but I’m not going to tell you if they were right or not!"
Lacey - who plays Stacey - said she was excited to see the reaction on Christmas Day, before admitting it has been hard to keep the news a secret. "I’ve had a lot of people ask since the flashforward aired in February, and I have to say, in the last few weeks it has been pretty difficult to answer as I know the outcome so I’ve had to work really hard on my poker face," she confessed.
Elsewhere, Balvinder - who plays Suki - teased more about the death, revealing her own reaction to getting into the scenes. "Let’s just say I was very excited to get going, and I couldn’t wait to be able to break it all apart and find the inner workings of what was going to happen and then put it all together again and execute it," she shared.
Could the dead body be connected to Denise, given that she said she was "gobsmacked" by the big reveal. Asked how she felt, she said: "Gobsmacked, but really intrigued. It was great to see how it all came together, and all the little nuances that the writing team have drip-fed along the way all meet at this crescendo point. It’s brilliantly done."
Kellie - who plays Linda - explained that she was "completely shocked" by the reveal, admitting it wasn't who she thought it would be. Does this mean it might not be Dean Wicks who ends up dead on the Queen Vic floor?
Only time will tell on who the body is this Christmas, but it will have everyone on the edge of their seats with the big reveal.
