Actor Shane Richie has revealed there are some 'tragic and sad' events lined up for the EastEnders Christmas storylines. The soap actor, who has been in EastEnders on and off since 2002, explained that the BBC cast are currently coming to the end of their Christmas filming and the storylines are set to stun viewers. He revealed that he 'intentionally' didn't read the script , and has been left in shock as he filmed scenes that will air in the Christmas Day special.
Speaking to RadioTimes.com , Shane explained: "I sat there watching this story unfolding in the Queen Vic that happens on Christmas Day, and as a fan of the show anyway, I was like, 'Oh my God I can't believe this! Stop!'" He continued: "I had to do a line and I kept messing it up because I was so taken in with that the storyline that was happening." As he added that viewers are "in for a treat" on Christmas Day, he teased that the new storylines will leave BBC viewers in shock.
More on EastEnders Whilst he couldn't spill the beans on exactly what will go down on December 25, he did sum up the events with four simple words: "Deceit, tragic and sad." In the past Christmas Day storylines have been huge, with last year's featuring The Six and the death of Keanu Taylor at the hands of Linda Carter surrounding by other females from the Square. The Christmas episodes come after a tough and rocky time for Alfie and ex wife Kat Slater, as they continue their battle with son Tommy over his abusive and violent outbursts.
