Albert Square is set to be hit by a catastrophic event in upcoming EastEnders scenes when too many people pile into Peggy’s and a terrifying crush forms.
The staff at Peggy’s, Chelsea Fox (Zaraah Abrahams) and Penny Branning (Kitty Castledine), have been at odds ever since Penny got the job of manager, and it is their feud that starts the horrifying chain of events.
‘Tensions are so high because Chelsea extended herself to Penny and thought she was doing a good thing by giving her a chance at the club,’ actress Zaraah Abrahams explained.
‘Penny manipulated the situation for personal gain – and instead of Penny being gracious, she is taking advantage of the situation and is ungrateful, whilst also mistreating Chelsea.
‘Chelsea isn’t one to back down from those situations. At the moment where she is in her life, wrong is wrong and right is right so they’re not friends right now.’
After a frosty exchange between Chelsea and Penny, Chelsea makes more tickets available online for Penny’s club night in a bid to sabotage the evening – unaware of the danger she is set to cause.
‘Chelsea wants to rubbish the night, and she hopes that Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) will see that Penny is not all she’s talked herself up to be and give Chelsea the job back,’ Zaraah revealed.
‘As far as Chelsea is concerned, she has worked herself up to that position – there has never been any trouble in the club, and Phil has always been happy with the way that she has been running it. Chelsea is just thinking, “You know what, I am going to ruin this night for you and Phil will give me my job back”.’
With Penny unaware that more people have bought tickets online, she continues to try and bring in more customers, and it isn’t long before the bar becomes dangerously overcrowded.
With too many people inside, a terrifying crush begins to form, and in the aftermath of the shocking event, Chelsea is questioned by police.
‘She feels absolutely awful. It was never her intention for anything to go so badly wrong, and instantly she is filled with guilt that she has had a part to play in what is a catastrophic, and potentially fatal, accident.’
