Look at me, what have you done? Zoe, he\u2019s dead.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Anthony had lied to Kat as he was angry after discovering he was the father of the twins Zoe gave birth to and abandoned in the hospital in 2006, after believing her daughter to be dead.<\/p>\n<p>Zoe had also been angry at Anthony as she wrongly believed him to be the person who had been making sinister threats towards her.<\/p>\n<p>Having found his body, Kat responded by switching off the electricity in the pub and forcing Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) to tell the punters to get out.<\/p>\n<p>Soon after, Zoe went downstairs as she could hear music playing from the pub, believing it to be the son she had abandoned years ago and had recently attempted to meet up with.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, she found Chrissie, and it was revealed that she has been the mastermind behind Zoe\u2019s torment.<\/p>\n<p>Kat asked her how long she had been in the pub, presumably to figure out if she could have killed Anthony, to which Chrissie said: &#8220;Just got here, why?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chrissie\u2019s plan has involved teaming up with Jasmine, and turning her against her mother as revenge for her involvement in the death of Den Watts, who Chrissie had actually murdered.<\/p>\n<p>Jasmine entered the pub and shouted at Zoe: &#8220;You couldn\u2019t be bothered to stick around the hospital long enough to hear me cry. Maybe I should be flattered, because at least you didn\u2019t just abandon me like you did my brother.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The storyline is reminiscent of Zoe\u2019s most iconic scenes, when she screamed at Kat, who she believed to be her sister, &#8220;you ain\u2019t my mother&#8221;, to which Kat yelled back: &#8220;Yes I am.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the second episode, the emergency services arrived at the scene and Zoe was seen walking over to a police officer and saying: &#8220;It\u2019s me you want.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Actor Bailey, 54, was also seen on the Strictly Come Dancing festive special on Christmas Day, and performed a Viennese waltz to It\u2019s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year by Andy Williams.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Press Association<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EastEnders characters Kat Slater and Jasmine Fisher have accused Chrissie Watts of killing Anthony Trueman in the BBC&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":339217,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[96,391,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-339216","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-tv","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339216"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339216\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/339217"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339216"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339216"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
