EASTENDERS fans were shocked by Mel Owen last night - not because she tried to bury a man alive, but because her wedding dress had POCKETS.

Viewers were in a frenzy at the innovation after seeing her whip a mobile phone out of the hidden pocket of her bridal gown.

 Viewers were impressed Mel had a pocket to store her phone - and weapons

One wrote: "All I can think is 'Woooow Mel's my kinda girl - pockets in her wedding dress. Very practical."

Another gasped: "The real shock here is that Mel’s wedding dress has pockets."

A third wrote: "It's very useful Mel's dress has pockets. It's almost as if she knew she would need to secret all this moody stuff about her person."

One other wrote: "I think what struck me most about last night's #EastEnders was how much I loved the fact that Mel's wedding dress had pockets."

A further enthusiast cheered: "#pocketsforall."

Last night shady conman Ray Kelly was killed off in a bleak woodland showdown which saw Tamzin Outhwaite's Mel attempt to bury Sean Mahon's character.

However, in a dramatic twist, it was Hunter that shot him dead, lining himself up neatly to follow in his dad Steve Owen's footsteps as Walford's premier gangster.

But it wasn't all pocket-based fun in EastEnders last night - some fans were concerned about Mel's dry cleaning bill too.

After running about in the woods in the white gown, it was covered in mud and some viewers were worried that she'd struggle to afford to afford the cleaning bill.

One gasped: "The dry cleaning bill for Mel's wedding dress is going to be HUGE! 😃."

Especially when they see the pockets. Oh, and the blood.
