EastEnders’ Letitia Dean admits Sharon ‘would kill for her kids’ as ‘The Six’ open up about gripping Christmas Day plot

EASTENDERS' Letitia Dean has admitted Sharon Watts 'would kill for her kids' as 'The Six' open up about the gripping Christmas Day plot.

With just two weeks to go until the BBC soap reveals who the mystery man dead on the floor of the Vic is, the six actresses involved in the storyline have shared their own theories on whodunnit.

The six matriarchs - Sharon, Linda, Suki, Stacey, Denise and Kathy - were all seen in a flashforward looking at the dead body on the floor.

EastEnders fans have desperately been trying to work out who the victim is, as well as which woman kills him.

Letitia - who has played Sharon since 1985 - is seen in a wedding dress, and some fans think Keanu - who she marries on Christmas Day, could be the victim.

At the moment, Sharon has no idea that her future husband faked a kidnap plot of her son Albie.

But if she finds out, Letitia thinks it could be enough to push her over the edge and be the one to kill.

Speaking on The Six - Revealed, Letitia told host Joe Swash: "I think she would fight tooth and nail for her children."

Joe then pointed out: "It's not like Sharon's old hat at this murder stuff, she's had a go at it before, she tried to kill Ian Beale."

Letitia added: "Over her son. And this one is over her son as well. And I think she would kill for her children."

But when Joe asked if that was a confession, she played coy and said: "Not really Joe, I have no idea."

Joe revealed at the start of the episode that the actress who is the killer had now been told by bosses, leaving the women stunned.

At the end of the 30 minute episode, Joe had them stand up and after the show's iconic duff duffs rang out, the killer had to step forward.

But the screen went black just at the right time, so viewers only heard the actresses scream in shock when the killer was revealed to them.

EastEnders airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
