EastEnders has lined up a dangerous new threat to The Six following Bernie Taylor’s exit from the soap.

Fans will remember that The Six (Denise, Kathy, Linda, Sharon, Stacey and Suki) were all responsible for the cover up of Keanu Taylor’s murder during the Christmas Day episode back in 2023.

Last year, Linda confessed to Keanu’s sister Bernie, telling her she was responsible for Keanu’s death. Instead of going to the police and seeking vengeance, Bernie left the Square for Germany.

Bernie returned to Walford in November and has recently been involved in a dramatic storyline which saw her steal from the Panesars, which led to her exit from the soap earlier this month.

After being confronted by Suki, Bernie told her that the money she stole would allow her to move past the pain The Six caused. Encouraged by Linda, Kathy and Denise, Suki let Bernie leave with the cash.

Meanwhile, Sharon has been away from Walford for several months now after visiting Vicki’s mum Michelle in Australia, but it looks like we’ll be hearing from her soon.

In scenes set to air next week, Kathy calls Sharon to convince her to let Vicki stay at No.43, with the move coming after Vicki admits to Kathy that she is considering telling the police the truth about Bernie.

This could leave The Six in a vulnerable position if Vicki tells the police about the money Bernie stole, with Kathy worrying that Bernie might tell them the truth about Keanu’s death.

Elsewhere next week, Avani Nandra-Hart finds out she’s pregnant after she is caught looking at a family planning clinic website by her Suki.

Avani explains to Suki that she doesn’t want to keep the baby and is planning on having an abortion – how will her Suki react?
