EastEnders Week 45 (08 - 12 November 2010)

[Perdita]

EASTENDERS favourites Kat and Alfie Moon are getting "married" again - in a recreation of their wedding seven years ago.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun's new Saturday TV magazine Buzz, stars Shane Richie and Jessie Wallace tell all about the top-secret storyline.

The Sun told earlier this week how Alfie proposes to pregnant Kat under a full moon next Thursday, asking her to renew their vows.

Shane, 46, said: "Alfie has this big idea they'll recreate their wedding in The Vic. But it all goes wrong as he's too busy being a knight in shining armour for Jack Branning and Ronnie Mitchell."

When Alfie gets a faceful of wedding cake from his bride - wearing the dress from her Christmas 2003 wedding - it seems it could all be off. But Kat forgives him and they "wed" again.

Jessie, 39, said her daughter Tallulah, five, was so convinced by the scene, she thought they were REALLY getting hitched.

Jessie revealed: "She said, 'When are they going to start acting?' I took that as a compliment, like, 'Oh aren't they so natural?' But Shane took it the other way!"

The scenes will be broadcast on November 11 and 12.

In Buzz, Jessie also talks about her fears on returning to the show and her search for love - while Shane confesses his bad habits and thoughts on fatherhood.

HUNKY groom Jack Branning is kidnapped on the eve of his wedding day.

It all kicks off after he helps brother Max teach twisted Harry Gold a lesson.

Jack holds Harry down as Max warns him to stay away from Vanessa – Harry’s ex-wife – *following a sick revenge campaign against her.

Viewers will be shocked by Harry’s actions when he kills his daughter Jodie’s cat, slashes his ex-wife’s clothes and vandalises the car lot.

Jack and Max force a promise from terrified Harry that he will stop – and the pair let him go.

But when Jack heads home after his stag do a car comes screeching round the corner and two heavies jump out and abduct him. So when his pregnant bride-to-be wakes up on the morning of her big day, fans will be left wondering whether Jack can escape in time to make it up the aisle.

An EastEnders insider said: “Harry really steps up his campaign against Vanessa over the next few weeks and Max doesn’t know what to do.
“Jack suggests they rough him up a little to get their message across.

“So Max persuades Harry to come and talk but as soon as he arrives Jack pushes him into the wall. He shows Harry that he’s messing with the wrong blokes and he’s forced to plead with Max to get his brother to stop.

“They let him go after he agrees to quit making Vanessa’s life a misery and as far as the Branning brothers are concerned that’s the end of the matter.

“But there’s no way Harry is going to let them get away with it and he takes great pleasure in showing Jack that he’s not one to be messed with either.

“Ronnie has no idea what’s going on and viewers will have to wait and see whether he makes it to their wedding.”

Fans of the hit BBC1 soap can catch all the action a week on Tuesday.

Roxy's money not in the bag, the hotel manager shows her a bag full of flower petals - has to be the mother. I know soaps like to drag things on, but for god sake it will be all round the houses for a week, before someone says to Roxy when did you last see the money in the bag and who was about or had been about before you got to the hotel.

I reckon it was Julie.. Bill's friend.. she took stacey's shoes and Roxy handed the bag to Billy when they were getting on the bus

It seems that most of Ronnie and Kat's wedding day involves Stacey! Would have rather just had it based around them if im honest. Is it a coincidence that Alfie just found out from Roxy about Archie raping Ronnie? That may fit in there somewhere seeing as Stacey has been through the same thing and Kat knows about it, and about Ronnie.
