EastEnders fans clamour for spin-off as three characters sent down in major twist

EastEnders fans clamour for spin-off as three characters sent down in major twist

EastEnders fans are clamouring for the BBC One soap to broadcast a series of special episodes set within the women's prison, as three key characters now find themselves behind bars.

On Thursday (September 5), Chrissie Watts (Tracy-Ann Oberman) made a surprise return, adding a twist to The Six's ongoing murder plot.

However, instead of showing up in Albert Square, Chrissie is seen in prison, where she is due to meet her former adoptive step-daughter Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean).

Earlier this week, Sharon was detained for contempt of court after an outburst in the witness box during Dean Wicks' (Matt Di Angelo) murder trial, where she accused a judge of 'slut-shaming' her.

Despite Dean Wicks collapsing the trial with his confession to raping Linda Carter (Kellie Bright), Sharon now faces a week in prison, reports the Daily Star.

Unbeknownst to Sharon, Chrissie, who was imprisoned for murder, is her neighbour. Chrissie killed Sharon's father Den Watts (Leslie Grantham) back in 2005.

Chrissie had beaten her husband Den to death in The Queen Vic, confronting him about his various wrongdoings alongside Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) and Sam Mitchell (Kim Medcalf).

At the time, Chrissie allowed Zoe to believe that she had killed Den during their confrontation, when in reality, it was Chrissie who had finished him off.

After discovering Chrissie was the true mastermind, Sharon became instrumental in her downfall, delivering a memorable punch as Chrissie was arrested at an airport trying to escape the country.

Now, after 19 years, Sharon and Chrissie are set for a dramatic reunion.

Meanwhile, another Albert Square resident, Sonia Jackson (played by Natalie Cassidy), finds herself behind bars on remand, accused of a murder actually committed by her partner Reiss Colwell (portrayed by Jonny Freeman), who has yet to be unmasked.

Fans of EastEnders are now clamouring for a prison-set mini-series featuring Sharon, Chrissie, and Sonia, hoping for a show reminiscent of the iconic ITV drama Bad Girls.

On social media platform X, one viewer suggested: "I wouldn't even complain if #Eastenders had a few actresses from Bad Girls and Wentworth in there for a week. #Sharon."

Another fan expressed excitement: "The Bad Girls reboot looks amazing! #EastEnders", and a third shared their anticipation: "Very excited about the return of Bad Girls. #EastEnders."

One more added to the buzz: "SPOILER ALERT Bernie, go to Spain and don't tell the police. It's 'Bad Girls' in EastEnders. This week has been outstanding. #EastEnders".

Echoing the sentiment, another tweet read: "#EastEnders is giving serious Bad Girls vibes for next week. High hopes to say the least. #ChrissieWatts".

EastEnders airs Monday-Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer
