As the town of Walford prepares to say goodbye to one of its own, tensions rise as Karen Taylor and Sharon Watts find themselves unable to set aside their long-standing feud. The funeral of Keanu Taylor, a beloved member of the community, promises to be a dramatic event, just like any other EastEnders funeral.
Karen returns to Walford to pay her respects to her late son, but her presence only serves to reignite the rivalry between her and Sharon. When Sharon pays a visit to The Queen Vic to see Karen, their animosity quickly resurfaces and they find themselves exchanging insults once again. Kat and Sonia are forced to intervene and break up the heated argument between the two women.
The tensions only continue to escalate as Sharon prepares for Keanu's funeral. Meanwhile, Karen's portrayer, Lorraine, had previously been written out of the show along with the rest of the Taylor-Baker family. Their exit storyline involved a hasty departure to Spain after Keanu conned Phil Mitchell out of £50,000 while staging a fake kidnapping of his son Albie.
Unfortunately, Keanu's involvement in the kidnapping was eventually revealed on his wedding day to Sharon, and he was later murdered by Linda Carter in The Queen Vic on Christmas Day. Linda, along with a group of others including Sharon, helped cover up the murder and even framed Dean Wicks for the crime.
As the funeral approaches, the question remains: will Karen and Sharon be able to put their differences aside for the sake of Keanu? Or will their past come back to haunt them and cause further chaos? Fans will have to tune in on Thursday to find out.
But it seems that the drama doesn't stop there. Karen had previously made a brief return to Walford in search of her missing son, and she had some serious questions for The Six, who had claimed that Keanu was the one who attacked Nish Panesar during a hostage situation at The Queen Vic.
With Linda still struggling to cope with the guilt of Keanu's murder, and with his wake being held at her pub, will everything go according to plan? Or will The Six's secret be revealed and cause even more turmoil? Make sure to catch these intense scenes on Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One, or watch them on BBC iPlayer from 6am.
