EastEnders and Coronation Street fans are feeling deflated after several

huge storylines are concluding without villains seeing any

punishments, according to social media users.

Pastor Clayton confronts Yolande in EastEnders
Pastor Clayton will commit suicide 

EastEnders confirms Pastor Clayton death

In spoilers, we know that Pastor Clayton will die by suicide after Yolande refuses to drop the rape charges against him.

A few months ago, Pastor Clayton prayed on Yolande before taking advantage of her at a church gathering. After weeks of torment, she found the strength to share her trauma with her friends and family.

They convinced her to report him, and police later found other women who came forward with the same experience.

Viewers have seen an exploration of Yolande’s trauma and, with Pastor Clayton returning next week, is about to show her strength in her refusal to drop her charges against him.

She will feel even more toil when police later inform her and Patrick that Pastor Clayton has died by suicide, meaning that their case can go no further.

Coronation Street: Joel Deering ‘death’

Elsewhere, Coronation Street has confirmed that Joel Deering will go missing next week after Dee-Dee and DS Lisa Swain have been working around the clock to find evidence against him.

Joel groomed Lauren and several other girls for months before Lauren returned to the cobbles and told police what happened to her.

As well as the grooming, Joel tried to kill their son by feeding Lauren drugs while she was pregnant. Their son, Frankie, has suffered seizures and potential brain damage.

While it hasn’t been confirmed, some fans think Joel could be suspected as dead.

EastEnders and Coronation Street fans want justice

For months, fans have been calling for justice and the chance to see both these men locked up for their crimes. However, with one dead and and with police searching for the body of the other, viewers think this is too easy.

They have called for prison and the satisfaction of a trial…

One X fan wrote: “Why are soap operas against getting justice for their victims? Dean originally getting framed for something he didn’t even do, justice for Linda until he admitted it, Lewis running away and leaving Ben with zero justice, and now Pastor Clayton ending his own life.

“Not to mention the other soaps and lack of justice in other storylines in EastEnders. Gray wasn’t even justice either.”

Another added: “Pastor Clayton suicide, JJ leukaemia, Joel presumed dead. When are soaps finally going to show abusers rotting in jail for their crimes and the victims finally getting justice?” While a third wrote: “So Pastor Clayton is getting away with everything…”

A fourth penned: “Pastor Clayton ending his own life is such a cheap move. We should have seen the women he hurt get justice, instead of this.”

Previously, Joel was an EastEnders regular for two years, from 2004 to 2006. Read more on EastEnders In a surprise twist earlier this month, his character Jake returned to Albert Square for the first time in almost two decades. Viewers saw Jake reunite with former lover Chrissie Watts (Tracy-Ann Oberman), who had just been released from prison. Cruising together in a sports car, they stopped off outside the Queen Vic, where Chrissie remarked: “Just had to see her one last time. Fancy a swift half?” However, Jake replied: “Nineteen years I’ve waited to get my hands on you again, a cheeky half in the Vic is not what I had in mind. “Now get in that car.” The two drove off together, with Jake just missing out on seeing his cousin Alfie (Shane Richie). EastEnders fans predict legendary character will return ‘from the dead’ as they beg BBC bosses for ‘closure’ This cameo appearance finally resolved the long-running mystery of Jake’s fate. The character’s final scenes back in 2006 implied he was about to be killed, following a misunderstanding – although fans now know he survived. Speaking after his EastEnders comeback aired, actor Joel revealed: “It felt lovely to be back. “Although it was a new set it felt really familiar, and it felt like I’d never been away. Chrissie Watts was played by Tracy-Ann Oberman and is widely considered to be one of the best villains in soap history. The character first arrived in Albert Square in 2004 as she was looking for her estranged husband Den Watts. After she was persuaded to give their marriage another go, she then discovered he had an adopted daughter, Sharon (Letitia Dean) along with two other children, Dennis Rickman (Nigel Harman) and Vicki Fowler (Scarlett Alice Johnson). Chrissie soon discovers that Den has been having an affair with the local ex-policewoman, Kate Morton (Jill Halfpenny). Chrissie initially worked together with Kate in the salon, before she got her revenge by hacking off her hair in revenge. Chrissie and Den reconciled as she told him that she would kill him if he ever cheated on her again. Together, they decided to defraud Sam Mitchell (Kim Metcalfe) and her family from everything, including their ownership the Queen Vic. However, she soon felt left out by Den after he begins another affair with Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan), when he tries to get her pregnant after she lied to Dennis. Dennis discovered the affair. Chrissie then persuaded Zoe to abort the baby. Together with Sam Mitchell, they concoct a plan to get their own revenge on Den and either Chrissie or Sam will get hold of the pub. They confront him on the night of his 37th wedding anniversary with Angie. Den is unmoved and confesses all of his wrongdoings, including Chrissie’s part in defrauding the Mitchell’s. However, Sharon was waiting in the shadows and she denounces Den before leaving Watford. Chrissie taunted Den who then attacked her. In turn, Zoe then hits Den with a doorstop which belonged to Den’s sworn enemy Pauline Fowler (Wendy Richard). Sam and Zoe panic, but a smug Chrissie taunted him when they were left alone. He violently grabbed her leg before she delivered the fatal blow to his head with the heavy object, unaware that Sam was secretly watching her. Zoe was left unaware of the true extent of what happened that night and Chrissie allowed her to think that she killed Den. The trio hid the body in the Vic, before Sam confronted Chrissie about what she truly saw. Sam demanded that the ownership of the pub reverted back to the Mitchell family. Sam tells Zoe the truth about the murder and Zoe leaves Walford. but she tells Kat (Jessie Wallace) about the killing. Sam gets drunk on Sharon and Dennis’ wedding day, digs up den’s body in the hope that Chrissie will be sent down. But Chrissie feigned grief as she comforted Sharon over her dad’s death. Sam told the police about the murder, but when Den’s blood was found under Sam’s sink, complete with her changing story, she got the blame for his murder. Chrissie also convinces Kat to get Stacey (Lacey Turner) to give a false alibi to the police that Zoe and Chrissie were with Kat her that night. Sam’s mother Peggy (Barbara Windsor) returned to Walford and slapped Chrissie who fell into Den’s grave at the funeral. The matriarch also accused her of murder by framing her daughter. Stacey soon learned the truth and she blackmailed Chrissie for money. In return, she then forms a relationship with Jake Moon (Joel Beckett) and she attempts to sell the Queen Vic to Jake’s gangland boss Johnny Allen (Billy Murray). After making a series of mistakes, she planned to free the country with Jake. Before then, they argued at Johnny’s nightclub, where Chrissie confessed that she killed Den with the doorstop. Johnny told Phil and Grant about the tape but Chrissie and Jake were already on their way out of the country. However, they were almost stopped by Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker) and Billy (Perry Fenwick) informed the police. At the airport, she was confronted by Sharon and was arrested by police after an exchange of words and a punch to the face. Chrissie only co-operated with the force in exchange for a meeting with Sharon, as she tried to get her to understand why she killed Den. In the meantime, Sam was released on bail but fled to Brazil with the help of Phil. Jake visited her in prison and proposes to her. However, she discovered that he lost the £25,000 that was to be her bail money and she called him an ‘idiot’ before storming out. She then decided to get revenge on Sharon for sending her to prison. She attempted to force her to testify in court about what Den was like as Chrissie thought that Sharon would crumble. But still looking at Sharon like a step-daughter she called off her plan, fired her solicitor and plead guilty to the murder. She was then sentenced to life imprisonment. “You never forget Albert Square.” Meanwhile, the star is also a familiar face to fans of classic BBC sitcom The Office.
