Ronnie getting preggers maybe??
Barbara Windsor has admitted that she still does not know how she will be written out of EastEnders.
The actress will film her final scenes as Peggy Mitchell later this summer, and producers have teased that there is an "epic and moving" final storyline planned for her character.
However, speaking at the BAFTA TV Awards, the 72-year-old confessed that she does not want an early preview of her last ever scripts and has no idea what is in store.
Windsor told Holy Soap: "I don't know and I didn't want to. I said I didn't want to see them, I don't want to know - just give them to me like you always give them to me, like they're any ordinary episode."
The star confirmed that there are "about six weeks" left before she bows out of Albert Square for good.
Of her plans to keep watching the soap, she added: "It will be so, so brilliant. I only want this show to be great. I've loved it for 16 years."
THE Mitchell girls shared a hug yesterday as Barbara Windsor said goodbye to Albert Square.
The EastEnders legend, 72, brought tears to her fellow cast members' eyes as she filmed her final scenes as Peggy.
She then hugged screen family Roxie (Rita Simons), Glenda (Glynis Barber) and Ronnie (Sam Womack).
Rita said: "She is my honorary real-life auntie."
June Brown (Dot), added: "I shall miss her enormously."

I bet they were all jumping for joy when she left. :D
EastEnders star Steve McFadden has spoken about Barbara Windsor's (Peggy Mitchell's) departure from the soap.
McFadden, who plays Windsor's on-screen son Phil Mitchell, revealed that Windsor will leave the show on a high as part of a major storyline.
He told The Mirror: "I am pleased for Barbara because she has worked hard and deserves this part of her life. She is a canny bird and she has played a blinder because she is going out on a massive high.
"She is going to be involved in one of the biggest and best storylines ever. So she is going out on the top of her game."
He also talked about how the cast celebrated her leaving the show, saying: "We had a barbecue. There was no champagne as Barbara doesn't drink so I got her Dover sole. I didn't want her eating any dodgy fish fingers."
Peggy Mitchell's final EastEnders episode will feature a new alternative version of the soap's theme tune.
The special track is a reworking of the BBC show's long-standing alternative tune 'Julia's Theme', which traditionally airs at the end of episodes featuring intense emotion or drama.
'Peggy's Theme' has been created by Simon May, who composed the original EastEnders theme in 1984 and is also known for creating the theme tunes for several other shows, including Howards' Way and Eldorado.
The extent to which the new tune will differ from 'Julia's Theme' - recognisable for a slow piano build-up leading into the end credits - is currently unclear.
A BBC spokesperson today confirmed that Peggy's final episode will feature the special theme. However, with details of the matriarch's final moments in Albert Square being kept closely under wraps, further information has not been disclosed.
Barbara Windsor, who plays Peggy, announced her decision to leave EastEnders last October. Her last episode is due to air next month.
Meanwhile, it has also been confirmed that 'Peggy's Theme' will be the lead track on compilation album The Simon May Collection, which is to be released on September 13.
When is her last episode on screen I thought you might know Alan seeing as you as big fan of hers :p
I dont like it when they change 'Julia's theme' it makes Eastenders. When Kat and Alfie got together, after the Andy wedding saga. When Cindy ran away with the children to France. When Kathy left to South Africa. Ahhh brings back emotional memories.
I think it's quite fitting for Peggy to have her own theme tune.
