RIP Barbara Windsor. This was one of her finest moments as Peggy Mitchell for me, if not the finest!

[@marcuslavaggi-bowen6539]

Indeed, I love the way she slaps Pat and Frank referring to the slaps the “prizes”🤣🤣🤣. RIP Barbara Windsor.

[@j.rbrooks300]

Definitely finest, she put her heart and absolute talent into this scene, this was golden age Eastenders hugely part in thanks to Babs.
