BBC EastEnders Christmas death leaked as star leaves top secret script on train

In a recent plot twist outside of soapland, an EastEnders star mistakenly gave away Christmas spoilers to a lucky commuter.

An actress – who was not named – accidentally left her top-secret festive script on a Thameslink train near the BBC studios where the soap is filmed.

The documents were marked as classified, and they revealed details about a major storyline set to unfold over the holiday season, and even reveals there is a dramatic Christmas death.

They were found at the Elstree & Borehamwood station by a commuter on his way to work.

Although he didn’t realise the significance of his find, the commuter shared the scripts with his wife, who is a die-hard EastEnders fan.

She told the Sun: "He’s not much of a soap fan but he knows I love them, so told me straight away.

"I was very excited — I love EastEnders. I couldn’t wait to read the script and wasn’t disappointed. There’s a real twist that will shock everyone and a main character is killed off. It’s an incredible storyline."

The couple made several attempts to return the script, including reaching out to the actress on Instagram.

However, after four days without a response, they decided to contact the Sun to make sure the classified material would reach safe hands without any massive plot leaks.

A reporter from the Sun visited Albert Square and delivered the lost pages to actor Colin Salmon, who plays Queen Vic barman George Knight.

A BBC spokesperson expressed gratitude for the safe return, acknowledging the efforts made to preserve an element of surprise for fans who are excited to tune in for the EastEnders Christmas episodes.
