EastEnders - Peggy Mitchell Dies and Pat Evans appear as a ghost.(EastEnders,BBC1,17.05.2016)

[@midnightstar1996]

"You won't ever leave me, will you?" "No, sweetheart. Not for one single second." Broke my heart.

[@westminsterwatcher5152]

I cried at that part!

[@LightLife4]

It was an emotional touch to add Pat as a ghost, what was genius about it was that her appearance wasn't mentioned beforehand, she just appeared

[@Buckaroo_Baldwin]

That wasn't Peggy and Pat saying those words, that was Barbara and Pam.

[@1angel23]

And mine.

[@jamesanderson8851]

Brings a tear to my eye especially at the end when she takes the pills

[@RobTheEnby]

I'd never watched EastEnders when this aired. But I watched this episode, live on TV and cried! Barbara Windsor was amazing. And always will be!

[@DarkAutumn3D]

I'm not a fan of this show but I tell you what... That must be such an incredible blessing.. Having a deceased loved one with you there to help you pass over, to comfort you, to distract you and make it easier, make it more welcoming... You do hear many stories of people who have been through such things.

[@thequietestengine]

Be she a hallucination or a ghost, there's something in Pat's expression, the weight of her lines at 2:45 that really gets to me for all the right reasons. All their ups and downs, but still the delivery of those words shines through.

[@ashleydavall]

I suspect it's Pam shining through the character of Pat. Pam & Barbara were dear friends in real life, Babs was even one of the only people Pam came out too about being in a relationship with another woman back in the day when that was "controversial". Babs had her alzheimers diagnosis by this point (hence why she was being written out) & I believe Pam was one of the few people that knew the truth. That "No sweetheart, not for a single second!" Is as much a promise between Barbara & Pam, as it is between Peggy & Pat.

[@LightLife4]

I imagine that this couldn't have been an easy scene for either Barbara or Pam to film

[@westminsterwatcher5152]

@@ashleydavall Eloquently put!

[@danielward7008]

From worst enemies to best friends. This was a beautiful ending for both of them.

[@syada7]

I've said this before and I'll say it again - Eastenders did Pam so dirty and killing her character off to this day remains one of their biggest mistakes.

[@Liiia8]

She sadly died in real life

[@Keibro]

Massive mistake. You often wonder how in gods name decisions like that get approved. The same with Ronnie and Roxy the very same year Peggy died, it was ludicrous. Aside from this, Peggys exit was beautifully done.

In an interview with her husband, Scott, it's now got to the point where she doesn't always remember who he is let alone being married to him.

[@AndrewChapman]

How come Pam St. Clement's name didn't appear in the closing credits? I know Pat died years ago on the 1st January 2012 and is only appearing here as a ghost/hallucination (whichever you like to call it) in Peggy's mind, but that's no reason not to include her in the credits. In the Coronation Street episode where Jack Duckworth died, his late wife Vera appeared as a ghost just before he dies. The actress who played Vera, Elizabeth Dawn received an on screen credit for that episode despite only appearing as a ghost. So, why not credit Pam St. Clement here?

[@bellaboop1]

I agree Andrew

[@hal560]

I’d imagine that was down to her personal decision! I’m sure she was paid appropriately.

[@MatgoStyles]

It's because credits are published in advance and they wanted it to be a total secret.

[@AndrewChapman]

@@MatgoStyles Yes, but it's not really much of a secret if the credits appear at the end of the episode after Pat's appearance.

[@Offical_RemyKWNicholls]

EE, hell BBC in general did not typically credit characters only making a guest appearance. Another prime example of this is Waterloo Road - Phillip Martin Brown, playing English Teacher Grantley Budgen, was originally only supposed to serve as a guest and therefore for the first three episodes of the show was not credited.

[@Mr.Belding]

I believe everyone has a soulmate but doesn’t mean it has to be romantic. Pat and Peggy is one example.

[@jamesanderson8851]

I cry everytime I watch this hope you dont think less of me as a man Eastenders will never be the same

[@SpawnF]

Peggy's a icon big part of my childhood watching eastenders

[@NPA1001]

Go to your rest now Babs you have earned it. RIP.

[@ryandenoven3447]

So cruel that she wanted to go out when she still felt like she was holding on to herself on eastenders but yet in real life she has alzheimer's and is slowly losing herself 😭

[@AndrewChapman]

She's at peace now. RIP Barbara Windsor

[@innovativeinnovation6629]

This is so sad because it was real! 2:31 onwards, is the most upsetting scene that I have ever seen in Eastenders, again, because it was real.

[@LightLife4]

Hearing the clock ticking was the most chilling part because you're waiting for it to stop. The official end of an era

[@droppingmikes]

this is so sad to go back and watch its hard for my own mental health too but great acting, makes me want to get into acting scenes like these.

[@callum9679]

That last line was not acting, it was the truth.

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Dear Peggy. Glad Pat was there.

[@TheMovieMistress1993]

02:27 “not bad for a bottled blonde.” Peggy - you bitch! Pat - you cow. 😂 💔

[@jane1975]

I loved that, one last dig at each other in a light hearted sisterly way before Peggy decides to take her own life rather than suffer a painful death due to the return of Breast Cancer that had spread to her bones and her brain. Babs made Peggy her own, after taking over the role from actress, Jo Warne, she didn’t take any crap from anyone and anyone that hurt her family would receive a well deserved slap, and the infamous line “ Get out of my Pub “, which I think Kellie Bright does a good job of revival too.

[@sacranie823]

Rip to the stars off hold days 👍

[@ieuannoteuan991]

[@GetToDaChoppa-k5r]

There is another good ghost of Liz Duckworth in Coronation Street. I think if it is done all the time it would be corny but with special characters like these, it works well. Both were beautifully done.

[@scotty87able]

I wonder if barbara had to have her lines held up in front of her as she was in the early stages of alzheimers.

[@liamde-maine3088]

I miss them both

[@katcox6127]

Eastenders used to be amazing! I loved the Peggy Phil and grant days . And pat b. Well she is a legend

[@mrorangepeel659]

My mum’s passing led to a lot of weird events both before and after… and days before going into the hospital my mum had a 30 minute conversation with her long passed over sister. She then walked down the hallway looking utterly shocked. She also saw our dogs which had died the month before running around, and a young boy at the hospital who had also passed on. There were a lot of strange things… she was coherent and of sound mind when this happened hence her being shocked.

[@curtwall7089]
