SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from Thursday’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy.

Thursday's EastEnders episode had a rather dramatic end with Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) wrongly arrested for the murder of Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters).The arrest came as Keanu's sister Bernadette Taylor (Clair Norris) vowed to avenge her brother's death. Viewers of the soap will remember that while Sharon was involved in hiding Keanu's body, it was actually Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) who killed him on Christmas Day as he attempted to strangle Sharon. After this, Linda, Sharon, Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal), Denise Fox (Diane Parish), Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) and Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) buried Keanu's body under the cafe.

After months of evading suspicions, sadly The Six’s worst nightmare finally came true during Tuesday evening’s visit to EastEnders, when Keanu Taylor’s body was unearthed beneath Kathy Beale’s cafe.

Sharon made a surprise return to Walford on Monday evening (1 April), apologising to The Six for leaving them after the shocking events that cost her fiancé his life.
