So have you got over the shock that Denise is still alive? Want to know what was going on in the cellar for the last couple of weeks?

We've got four exclusive scenes that will fill in some of the gaps for you as Denise takes on Lucas...

Day 3 - Lucas brings supplies to a broken and tired Denise who is seemingly powerless to his ways.

Day 8 - Lucas thinks that Denise is making progress but the family photos he brings for her bring her to breaking point.

Day 12 - Lucas thinks he's won the battle but Denise is up for challenge and makes her attempt to escape.

Day 15 - Picking up from the cliff-hanger of Friday's episode, Denise learns that her family thinks she's dead and realises she may never escape.

THAT'S IT.ÌýWe've held our counsel on this subject LONG ENOUGH. All week, the vote on the homepage has been asking 'Who would beÌýyour ideal flatmate - Christian or Syed'. The results have been pretty conclusive, butÌýwe need to know MORE.

So tell us - who's your ideal flatmate and WHY?

In the illustrative photograph below, you'll note that you (as played by Tamwar) are sittingÌýwith both Christian and Syed, however, you can't have em both! So make up your mind and explain yourself... NOW

A blessing in disguise?

Lucas tries to keep his cool as Mercy and her gran grill him at Bible class.

Ladies and gentlemen, grab your tissues. Barbara Windsor has recorded her last scene* as Peggy Mitchell and we were there, trying not to ruin the sound quality with our noisy sobs.

The scene was recorded in a single take (what a pro) and afterwards, an emotional Barbara gave a moving speech, through her tears, with a red-eyed Rita Simons (Roxy) and Samantha Womack (Ronnie) by her side. She spoke about her love of the show and what a wrench it is toÌýsay goodbyeÌýafter sixteen unforgettable years on Albert Square. What a legend.

June Brown

"I shall miss her enormously and she is a wonderful friend. I will miss our lunches, coffee and catching up on gossip!"

Rita Simons

"I am really going to miss Barbara. On set, Barbara is like my honorary real life auntie.Ìý She is a great mentor and she's taught me so much.Ìý Barbara is such a professional and it has been an honour to work with her.Ìý She is truly supportive and she will be greatly missed at EastEnders."
Ìý

"I think the funniest moment I remember from working with Barbara was when she had to dress up in a cowgirl outfit, complete with tequila guns.Ìý She looked hilarious and we had such a laugh filming those scenes"

Sam Womack

"There was a line in a script "you have always been like a mother to me" and that summed it up perfectly for me. Barbara took myself and Rita under her wing from the day we started and it's a wrench to let her go.Ìý We will miss her dearly and we will definitely stay in touch - she won't be able to get rid of us!"

Ìý

Ìý* Scenes are recorded out of order, so the final scene she recorded is not the final scene that will appear on TV.

Psst! Come over 'ere guv... We've got an exclusive preview of next Friday's EastEnders. As Chelsea, Libby and the Walford locals grieve for Denise, Lucas plays the grieving husband. Will he break down at the altar and profess his guilt? Or must the show go on?

Update: You can now talking about Chryed, and his hopes for Tambo's love-life (i.e. that he'll get one).Ìý

Leading us to wonder....

a. If you could giveÌýanyone on the Square a makeover, whoÌýwould be your victim and what would you do to them? Philip Mitchell with a mullet? Acrylic nails and a weave for Heather? Make UNDER for Pat?

b. How awesome is Kim?
