EE: Pauline's exit spoiler

Post by **Skylace** » Sun Oct 01, 2006 10:18 pm

PAULINE Fowler is to be killed off in EastEnders after developing an "inoperable brain tumour".

The Albert Square battleaxe, played by Wendy Richard, will die on Christmas Day.

Bosses are desperate to keep the details of the storyline under wraps. But the Sunday Mirror can reveal Pauline - who has worked in the launderette throughout her time on the soap - will NOT die from the brain tumour.
Instead scriptwriters are working on an even more dramatic finale.

A TV source said: "Pauline finds out she has this tumour. But, although it is terminal, that is not how she passes away." The insider added that, even before learning of the tumour, Pauline survives a house fire.

Wendy, 63, announced she was quitting the show earlier this year. She is one of the last of the original cast still left, along with Adam Woodyatt and June Brown.

Yet another joyous Christmas on the Square.

And here I thought they'd all leave for Florida to start a new life. Guess this means she won't be popping back in for a guest spot.

I think she is wanting to burn all of her bridges.
