EastEnders fans are gearing themselves up for a particularly heart-shredding episode later this month, when Lola Pearce's funeral will unfold on screen. Monday's instalment of the BBC soap confirmed June 27 as the date to put in your diaries, as Ben Mitchell revealed as much to Lola's devastated mum Kathy and future stepdad Rocky. Over on Twitter, the general consensus is that viewers still aren't ready to say goodbye to Danielle Harold's beloved character, who passed away at the end of last month from terminal cancer.
