EastEnders drops dramatic Christmas trailer with violent Kathy Cotton
Kathy is the latest of the Six to appear in her own teaser ahead of the hotly anticipated Christmas episode.
It's safe to say that this year's EastEnders Christmas special is one of the most hotly anticipated TV events in a long time – what with February's epic flash-forward having teased major drama.
The flash-forward showed six of the soap's most beloved matriarchs – Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), Kathy Cotton (Gillian Taylforth), Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), Denise Fox (Diane Parish), Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) and Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal) – standing over a mysterious dead body at the Queen Vic.
And now, a short but dramatic new trailer has been released that shows Kathy very violently chopping up some flowers while Florence & the Machine’s 2015 hit What Kind of Man is heard in the background.
We then very briefly see the faces of the five other women involved in the storyline before cutting to a black screen and a caption reading: "In a flash, everything changes."

It's not immediately clear what the cryptic trailer might be hinting at, but Kathy is just the latest character to feature in her own trailer ahead of the Christmas episode.
Last week, Sharon starred in an equally dramatic teaser that showed her looking scared before throwing a bouquet of flowers in the air, while before that, Denise, Stacey and Linda also appeared in their own clips.
That means of the six women involved in this storyline, only Suki is yet to have her own trailer – so we'd expect one to arrive in the very near future.
