Details surrounding the exit of EastEnders character Pat Evans have emerged.
Actress Pam St Clement announced in July that she is leaving the BBC One soap after 25 years in the iconic role.
Pat will reportedly be killed off in "emotional" scenes at Christmas, coinciding with the return of Bianca (Patsy Palmer) and Ricky Butcher (Sid Owen). However, the exact cause of her death is yet to be revealed.
