EastEnders' Linda Carter star Kellie Bright looks 'unrecognisable' on The One Show

-

EastEnders icon Kellie Bright has sparked a frenzy among fans after her 'unrecognisable' appearance on Wednesday's episode of The One Show (April 10). The 47-year-old actress, who plays troubled Linda Carter on the BBC soap, has admitted that finding out she was EastEnders’ Christmas killer was as big a shock to her as it was to viewers.

As soap fans will know, Linda has been caught up in a huge murder plot after stabbing Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) in The Queen Vic on Christmas Day. The pub landlady then buried Keanu's corpse with the help of Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), Denise Fox (Diane Parish), Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal), Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) and Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth).

The fallout from Keanu's death has driven Linda back to alcoholism as she struggles to cope. During a conversation with hosts Lauren Laverne and Jermaine Jenas on The One Show, Kellie said she never expected that her alter ago would be the killer.

"It was news to me as well!" Kellie said. "I was really surprised. I did not see it coming at all. I thought I would be the last person that would do it.

"When it was explained to me how it was going to happen I kind of went, ‘Oh ok, I can sort of see…'. She doesn’t intend to kill him, she’s stopping him from killing her best friend. It’s a moment of desperation, madness, chaos.

"A lot happens that day. It’s EastEnders, it’s Christmas Day, of course a lot happens! It kind of all built to this moment."

During Kellie's interview on The One Show, EastEnders fans wasted no time complimenting the star of her latest look. Viewers are used to seeing the actress wearing pink or bold patterns. These days, she also sports a glum and downtrodden expression as she struggles through life.

But during her appearance on The One Show, Kellie stunned in a gold shimmering blouse decorated with black spots. She teamed her glam top with flared black trousers, ankle boots and a black headband to complete her look. Kellie also looked very fresh-faced and donned a flawless makeup look.

Taking to X, one person wrote: "Kellie Bright looks absolutely stunning #TheOneShow". A second stated: "Kellie Bright #TheOneShow talking about #EastEnders", followed by a love-struck emoji.

A third stated: "She’s literally one of the most beautiful women on the planet. Oh I do love you Kellie Bright #TheOneShow". While another added: "Only watching #ONEshow #TheOneShow to see Kellie bright who plays Linda in #EastEnders."

The father of a bullied North London schoolgirl said he is a 'victim of a failing system' following her suicide. Mia Janin, 14, took her own life after receiving a torrent of horrendous messages on social media. The Year 10 pupil at the Jewish Free School (JFS) in Kenton in Harrow, North West London was found dead at her family home in Barnet on March 12, 2021. At an inquest into her death, North London area coroner Tony Murphy concluded that Mia, 14, 'took her life while still a child and while still in the process of maturing into adulthood', at Barnet Coroner's Court on Friday. Mia's father, Mariano Janin, paid tribute to his daughter, saying: "She was fantastic, she was very bubbly, good sense of humour, she was beautiful, she was very kind, very creative." Mr Murphy, whose wife Marisa has since died as well, said Mia was last seen alive at about 10pm on March 11 2021, when she said good night to her parents in their family home. READ MORE...

Furious Sutton SEND parents slam 'disrespect' from council and announce end to 10-year partnership

-

A forum made up of parents and carers of children with special educational needs and disabilities has cut ties with Sutton Council, accusing the authority of a lack of trust and not working effectively with them. Sutton’s Parents and Carer Forum (SPCF), which has advised the council and helped shape SEND policy for around 10 years, cites ‘disrespect’ shown to them by Sutton Council as one of their reasons for deciding to cease contact with them as of March 3 this year. This decision could leave Sutton Council able to make SEND related decisions without any oversight or input from the parents they impact, however the council says it's looking into finding a new independent group to fill the void. SPCF is an Ofsted and Department for Education recognised body that has represented the borough’s SEND families for the last decade. According to their post, published on X last Friday: “The role of the parent carers on the Steering Group is to lead this work and listen to the views and...
