EastEnders' Bernie to make a mistake as she targets Sharon in blackmail plot
Bernie Taylor is convinced that Sharon Watts killed her brother Keanu, and has been sending threatening letters to Linda Carter, believing she is covering for Sharon.
In reality, it was Linda who killed Keanu on Christmas Day to save Sharon's life, and The Six (Sharon, Linda, Kathy, Whitney, Denise, and Shirley) have been trying to cover it up.
In upcoming scenes, Bernie decides to target Sharon more directly, and Sharon receives an ominous message from Bernie.
Bernie accidentally drops her burner phone in the café, potentially risking her being discovered.
The soap has also teased big drama for The Six in Dean Wicks' upcoming murder trial, after they successfully framed him for Keanu's murder.
Actor Scott Maslen, who plays Jack Branning, said the stakes are very high as Jack, a policeman, is now involved in guiding The Six and trying to maintain control over the situation.
Maslen teased that the ongoing scenario with The Six is "simmering at the moment, but we're going to get to a boil", hinting at more intense drama to come.
