EastEnders Extra Scenes
Ìý
Ìý
EastEnders viewers are in for a special Christmas treat this year as three special scenes have been filmed exclusively for the Red Button.
In the build up to Stacey’s final episodes, Janine’s evil brooding over the discovery of Ryan’s relationship with Stacey finally culminates in one of the most spectacularly shocking announcements the Queen Vic has ever seen. Stacey is forced to make a life changing decision leading to her departure from the Square but will she wave a fond farewell to Walford or depart in a far darker fashion?
Before viewers find out how Stacey leaves, they are in for an extra Christmas treat as three special scenes have been filmed exclusively for the Red Button. These exclusive scenes will give fans a chance to explore the relationships between the key characters that are at the heart of Walford’s Christmas drama. With revelations and admissions from Janine, Stacey, Ryan, Max and Lauren, these scenes will provide an added insight into what they are all thinking and feeling as Christmas day approaches.
These special scenes can be seen directly after EastEnders on the red button on the 20th, 23rd and 24th December.
