Coming up on EastEnders – Wedding Week!
On Monday, it’s the day before Peggy and Archie’s hen and stag nights and Aunt Sal arrives early to help Peggy get ready. Stacey meanwhile bumps into Danielle in the Square and asks what she’s been up to for the past few days however, being evasive, Danielle says that she’s going to the wedding and will be one of Peggy’s bridesmaids.
Unconvinced by Danielle’s claims, Stacey seizes the opportunity when she bumps into Ronnie in the café to find out who Peggy’s bridesmaids actually are and just as Stacey suspected, Danielle doesn’t feature in the wedding at all…
Danielle again increases the pressure on Archie to tell Ronnie the truth, but Archie’s adamant in his lies that Ronnie’s too emotionally fragile to be able to cope with the news that daughter she believes is dead is in fact on the Square.
Furious with her grandfather’s empty promises, Danielle resolves to tell Ronnie herself and frantic that Danielle will go through with it, Archie goes looking for Ronnie and finds her in R&R. As father and daughter talk, Archie realises that his bridge building with Ronnie finally seems to be paying off…
Later, Archie goes to the Arches where he calls Danielle. Still lying, he tells her that he’s finally told Ronnie the truth and that he wants to meet up with her. Believing him, Danielle heads for the door, completely unaware that Archie has just cut a piece of wire which looks to be destined for her neck…
Elsewhere, Janine offers to rent Peggy the sports car she has at the car lot for the wedding, Garry puts his foot in it when Manda asks Garry who Minty’s taking to the wedding and Jack offers to babysit Amy for the wedding while Jean gets to work as the Square’s new make-up artist.
On Tuesday, Archie’s trying to enjoy at his stag do but it’s clear that he has other things on his mind. As he heads for the door, Janine manages to collar him and suggests they have a one-to-one chat over a drink. She happily tells him that she thinks they’re more alike than he realises and claims that they have endless potential as a team in Walford.
When Janine goes to the bar, Archie steals her keys from her bag before bolting for the door. As he’s walking to meet his Danielle, it’s clear that the thought of killing her has crossed his mind, but he can’t summon up the courage to act on the impulse.
Danielle’s waiting for him as agreed and Archie ushers her into Janine’s flat where he attempts to convince her that leaving Walford is the only option, given Ronnie’s ‘bad reaction to the news’. Archie then offers Danielle a wad of cash to walk away from the Square, promising he’ll call to let her know when she can return.
It looks like Archie’s plan’s worked as he watches an oblivious Danielle climb the steps at the tube station. Later however, Danielle’s sitting outside the Vic with no intention of leaving until Ronnie knows the truth…
Meanwhile, Peggy’s hen do is well underway and the bride-to-be is shocked that Ronnie and Roxy have organised an American cheerleading troupe for the night. Peggy thinks the whole idea is bizarre to begin with, but it’s not long before Aunt Sal cajoles her into joining in.
Despite the concerns of her friends and family that Archie’s controlling nature has changed her, she proves that the old Peggy is still there. She begins to question herself though when Sal points out that her wedding dress isn’t at all nice.
Elsewhere, Roxy spends the whole of Peggy’s hen night waiting for Jack to call or text, Janine puts in a surprise appearance at the Vic, much to Peggy’s annoyance and Manda finally accepts Minty’s ‘plus one’ invite to the wedding.
In Thursday’s one-hour special, it’s the day of Peggy and Archie’s wedding and the bride is extremely nervous about her impending nuptials, especially as she hates the dress she’s had made. With Ronnie’s support, Peggy decides to change it back to the one she originally chose but when she arrives at the church, she worries about wearing a dress that Archie won’t like.
Phil reassures her that everything will be fine and she finally plucks up the courage to enter the church. As she walks down the aisle, Archie can’t believe that she’s switched outfits and is stunned by her insistence that he should take her as she is or not at all.
Meanwhile, with everyone at the wedding, Danielle sneaks in to the Vic and drops her locket into Ronnie’s champagne glass. Afterwards, she hides upstairs and waits for the wedding party to return from the church…
When they do, Ronnie heads upstairs to find Danielle holding baby Amy. When Ronnie tells her to leave, Danielle snaps and finally breaks her seven-month silence, dropping the bombshell that she’s Ronnie’s daughter Amy.
Archie then appears and admits that he knew about Danielle’s ‘crazy claims’, but he insists that she’s making it all up. Danielle though tells Ronnie that the proof she needs is downstairs in her champagne flute.
In the bar, Archie anxiously tries to make out to everyone that Danielle’s mentally ill, resulting in a big scene and Danielle’s leaving.
Once she’s gone, the proceedings continue and during the speeches, Ronnie raises a glass to her father but just as she does, she spots Danielle’s locket and is forced to believe the gut-wrenching news that she’s been living on the same Square as her daughter for over half a year.
As those at the wedding struggle to come to terms with the revelation, Archie’s world begins to come crashing down around him. Visibly shaken, Ronnie heads to the Slaters’ in search of Danielle but she’s nowhere to be found. Rushing to the tube station with Stacey in tow, the events which unfold in front of Ronnie’s eyes leave her with an unbearable grief…
Elsewhere during the day, Max and Tanya seek solace in each other as they discuss their daughter Lauren’s situation and the pair find themselves kissing but when Max asks Stacey to change her statement to help Lauren before her trial, Stacey makes a pass at him.
Also, Roxy slaps Ronnie at the reception and Jack admits to Ronnie that he loves her, not Roxy, before begging her for another chance and Janine makes an unwelcome appearance at the wedding party.
Friday’s episode details aren’t being revealed by the BBC until the day before so we can only give you a brief summary of some events from this episode…
The residents of Walford are trying to deal with aftermath of the events of Peggy and Archie’s wedding day.
Also, Max wants his family life back again and tells Tanya that he wants to spend more time with her and the kids while Masood stands up for Jane when Phil moans at her about the mess in the Vic.

eastenders is wack man danielle should survive
Nooo she can’t die, what a crap ending to such a build up xx
EE has just given us a big slap in the face for diligently following that storyline for sooo long. We deserved more for the time we spent watching it unfold. I really hope that Dan is in a coma, not dead, but it doesn’t look good. Really annoyed with EE for doing that to us.
totally cruel and very disappointed – i also wish she survives…..but dont think it will happen
so not fair- the actress was conztontly complaining for a better character and for the story to come out then decides to quit to go into theater? whats the point. dissapointmnent
What is wrong the writers? Does the actress have somthing wrong with her? Why quit? Why kill of danielle? it makes no sense!!!!! So mad.
the best episode in eastenders history ever so sad about danielle but archie will be a wanted man tomorrow night
noooooo not danielle why not archie
I’m so confused…thwy cuold of done something esle…if the actress wanted a break they could have put danielle in a coma or something… maybe a long time one but why kill her? Makes no sense.
LoL tbh it nearly made me cry…thats how sad i am =]
its only acting really so no point saying anything
but got to say that the writer should have made it last a little longer or something
very true :@
how could a huge build up lead to this!
if she is dead then i hope the rumour about eastenders going off TV is true afterall! what a boring end to a what was once amazing storyline!
DANIELLE – PLZ SURVIVE!!
there should be a protest about this! i would join!
WHAT A WAY TO LOSE YOUR RATINGS!!!!! ALL THAT BUILD UP THEN SHE DIES – NOT WHAT US VIEWERS WANTED – GUTTED!!!
I heard its because te actress who plays danielle quit… after always asking for a better character.. then this? what is the f***king point? there is none. why did they kill her of.. i am mad. i wanted to know danielles reaction after ronnie realises. sahe didnt even get to hug her or anything. well? they have no exuse…

RONI AND ROXI ARE GOING TO KILL ARCHY ABOUT TIME EH. BUT WHO WILL BE THE SUSPECTS ? PEGGY, FILL,RONI,ROXI,OR OUR VERY DERANGED JANINE ?you decide
Complain here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/complaints_stage1.shtml
i know now!
thats exactly what i will do !!
I have just complained and think everyone else should to. Spread the word. This is not on. Unfair much- maybe if enough people complain they wll have to somthing. dont know what though.
i have just made my complaint. it was more of an open opinion on my behalf with a tender yet sharp touch
well lexy they could make it a festive season its easter so there could be a resurrection of danielle.
makes perfect sense.
A STORYLINE WE HAVE ALL FOLLOWED HOPEING FOR THE HAPPY ENDING!! THERE IS ENOUGH SADNESS IN THIS WORLD WE FACE IN REALITY, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO SEE THE ENDING WE WERE ALL HOPING FOR, EVEN TO BRING A MOMENT OF JOY TO EVERYONE FOR A STATIC MOMENT, BUT INSTEAD THE WRITERS OF SUCH STORYLINES THRIEVE ON ENDINGS LIKE THIS!! THESE WRITERS ARE TO BE PETTYIED, THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO TRY AND PROMOTE HAPPINESS BUT CHOOSE THIS TYPE OF MATERIAL TO BROADCAST TO VIEWERS INSTEAD. HOPE THEY FEEL PROUD , HOW SAD!!
wtf are you on yasemin?
they are not about to ‘resarect’ her.GOD…this is eastenders. a soap…not a cartoon
what sort of cartoons have you been watching? i certainly have not seen any resurrection or resarect in any lol only in soaps do these things happen hehehe its made me chuckle ile give you that
…what saops do you watch? your on about when people fake their own death…not when there are witnessess to it…aka: ronnie, stacy and janiene God.
fair point tom i totally agree.why are these writers so pessimistic.
grrrrrrr the writers
i think youve miss ubderstood me! i mean like a re write of the story like she dies but they some how bring her back to life im sure they could use thir creativity for good instead of bad .
if you watch hollyoaks lexy jack did actually fake his own death man! so it is possible if you think about it
please everybody complain to the bbc. this storyline by far deserved a HAPPY ENDING! WHO KNOWS THEY MAY LISTEN http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/complaints_stage1.shtml
sorry to spoil it all for you but she does die and ronnie leave to live in ibiza forever as there is nothing left for her in walford.
She is about to bord the plane when jack arrives at the airport to stop her and confess his love for her. she doesnt hear him shout to her. so he then does it over the airport tannoy.
sorry dont know the outcome if she stays or goes
