Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth)

I've read (but don't hold me to it!) that their meeting wasn't coincidental and that it was a mutual acquantaince who introduced them (possibly her brother?).

DTC's said \"Gavin will be one of the biggest villains in the show's history\" and that he's \"going to be an EastEnders villain like no other\", so expect the worst. Poor Sharon...

Are we "absolutely"certain about who was Sharons
birth mother?with no possible ret-cons or changes.

I did miss some episodes around that time and
have started to wonder if this could be where
some drama arises?

Afraid that's way before my time. I only got interested in the show in the last few years, but as far as I know yes Sharon's birth mother was confirmed.

I can't remember the details either. Sharon's certainly convinced, but in a universe where long-dead parents habitually rise from the grave, murderers and rapists are ten-a-penny, and Phil Mitchell is invincible, I don't think we can be certain of anything.

Did Ian go to South Africa or South America to ID Kathy's body and bring her home for burial?

I know he brought Ben back with him

He went to South Africa

[tammyy2j]

He went to South Africa

I knew it was South something but did he ID her body or was it too badly burnt from crash, was she buried or ashes scattered home with Ian

I believe when Ian arrived in South Africa she'd already been buried.

[Perdita]
