EXCLUSIVE: THE KILLER OF ALBERT SQUARE
HE GOT RID OF PAULINE.. NOW HE'S AFTER DOT
By Nicola Methven, Tv Editor
25 January 2007
THIS is the shocking moment when Joe Macer tries to throttle poor old Dot Branning after she discovers that he killed Pauline Fowler.
Dot (June Brown) has puzzled over Pauline's end since she dropped down dead on Christmas Day.
Daughter-in-law Sonia Fowler's in the frame because she slapped Pauline before she died.
But Dot's not convinced and confronts Pauline's husband Joe (Ray Brooks) who confesses he smashed her over the head with a frying pan after they rowed. Viewers are set for a cracking episode tomorrow as Dot's husband Jim (John Bardon) turns up in the nick of time.
A show insider said: "Dot is suspicious about Joe's return and questions him as he rummages through drawers at the burnt-out house.
"She begins to realise that Joe came back there on Christmas Day and tries to make sense of what happened. He admits that he did indeed return and hit Pauline hard on the head.
"As he makes the astonishing confession, Joe becomes angry and Dot is scared but she eventually gets the full truth from him - that he's a killer. Joe insists that she keeps quiet and she realises he intends to let Sonia take the rap."
Dot frantically reaches for the phone to call the police but Joe lunges at her. Luckily Jim spots her in the window as he walks across the Square. He rushes over and goes for Joe.
The Albert Square killer ducks and plunges through the window on to a market stall below.

We didn't see him. He's going to admit to it.eefanincan wrote:You've a sharp mind!Skylace wrote:Ah ha! My theory was right!
Now, for some reason, I can't remember the Christmas episode --- did we actually see Joe do this, or does he just admit to doing it?
Mr. Macer, in the Fowler house, with the frying pan!

It really does. I will be glad when this is all done. I really wasn't pleased with Pauline's exit at all. And I am sure Martin is going to feel like a right prat when he learns that Sonia is innocent. What also amazes me is he seems to forget that he killed someone accidently too!eefanincan wrote:Skylace wrote:We didn't see him.

It does sound like something from Clue, doesn't it???
Exactly my thoughts last night, too. Not only did he kill someone, he killed Sonia's beloved Jamie. I think dear old Martin needs to take a step back and consider how Sonia forgave him!Skylace wrote:It really does. I will be glad when this is all done.
