Location Pics: 'EastEnders' film shock funeral

Published Friday, Jul 17 2009, 18:54 BST | By Kris Green | 31 comments
The cast and crew of EastEnders were out on location today filming for a shock funeral. Avert your eyes here if you don't want to be spoiled...

Yes, the Fox family - Denise (Diane Parish), Lucas (Don Gilet) and Chelsea (Tiana Benjamin) - were shooting in a graveyard for the funeral of Trina, Lucas's ex-wife played by Sharon Duncan-Brewster.

Yep, in a shock twist, it looks like Trina meets her maker and I'm told that she's "seriously killed". I'm not quite sure how you can be mildly killed, but still...

I've also heard that there are a number of suspects in the frame for her death. So are we looking at murder? An accident? Suicide?

What's more, why on earth is Stacey (Lacey Turner) at the funeral? And more to the point, why is she climbing in the grave?

Stacey is off meds at the moment, so by the time Trina is buried she'll be in the grips of a full-blown manic episode. I think in the meantime she'll notice something amiss about the way Lucas is behaving, and become convinced that he murdered Trina (rightly so). She'll get fixated on the idea of solving a real-life murder mystery I think. Remember when she was frantically trying to work out who Max was seeing when she was first becoming ill? She was rather excited at the prospect of solving the mystery, and I think that may happen again - only this time she's right. Of course, when she starts flinging accusations around, how much do you want to bet that Lucas uses her illness against her? Then again, I could be totally wrong...........

How come Stacey's there at Trina's funeral?

What is Stacey doing? Is she mad?

Trina WAS a bad girl, but she did not deserve to die. Lucas was supposed to be a church follower, a follower in god. Making it look like she killed herself - pathetic. My triplets, Ellie, Leona and Dannielle thought that he was saving her. What a bad life Lucas will have, living with an experience of murdering some one. Kristen, 29, London

Just watched How she died. Quite a shocker but it was an accident so it was a good storyline I reckon. Can't wait for the funeral. Looks interesting. I wonder what will happen to Lucas O.o

Thank god she's dead, she was one character that really did my nut in.

I think that Stacey is at the funeral due to her bipolar/post traumatic stress disorder (I'm not 100% sure she IS bipolar yet) Remember the last funeral on the square. Poor Danielle, Stacy saw her die and attended her funeral which set the poor young woman over the edge. Now at the news that there's a funeral taking place, Stacey might get it into her head that doing something to this funeral might bring Daniel back who knows? Her mind is still in disarray and after witnessing what she did; A close friend getting run over, that friend dying in her distraught long-lost mother's arms and then having to endure the screams of that same heartbroken mother. They say that when the heart of a parent breaks, the sound can be heard for miles around, and the effects of it don't stop at the mother. As to the death of Trina, I'd say that's open game. I mean she's not made herself popular, I can think of many people who would want to kill her; Lucas, Denise, Patrick, Chelsea, Trina herself (in framing one of the happy couple for murder she will undoubtedly put them through hell as she promised to do last night)

Spoiler - Stacey is the KILLER and panics at the funeral.
Catherine, West Glamorgan, on August 19th, 2009
Wow this will be great, but when is it showing? [Beginning of September... - KG]
Claire Little, Hampshire, on August 17th, 2009
I Think She Provided Stacey With Drugs.
Charly, Glasgow , on August 8th, 2009
Could it be that Stacey thinks its her mum, after all she might not be taking her medication & put 2 & 2 together & came up with 3. so she climbs in wanting to see for herself...... you never know after all its EastEnders we're talking about. I'll be watching anyhow.
Peter, High Wycombe, on July 31st, 2009
Lucas would be too obvious, I think its gonna b a shock killer and there'll be a story behind it (obviously)
Haleema, Southend, on July 27th, 2009
What is Stacey doing in the second from last picture? She looks like she is praying. I think Lucas killed Trina so he could get Jordan back. Lucas is going to try and keep it from Denise which is wrong.

What's more, why on earth is Stacey (Lacey Turner) at the funeral? And more to the point, why is she climbing in the grave? Aaah Stacey LMAO
Liam, Leicester, on July 21st, 2009
I think that's a brilliant idea and I like the idea of Stacey climbing into the grave!
Faye, Dudley, on July 20th, 2009
I think Owen will kill her when he comes from prison she might get in the way when he wants to see Libby or something like that and he will attack her and then that's Trina out the way, Owen will be arrested and that's also him out the way.
Eleasha, UK, on July 18th, 2009
why on earth is Stacey in the grave?? hmm interesting maybe she killed her and is really sorry! I'm really confused but EastEnders is really hotting up now that Ryans in it and Trina's going to die!! wow can't wait
Alex, London, on July 18th, 2009
I think Eastenders is now starting to become a little OTT there are more murders, slag's, nutcases, looneys in such a small square than anywhere else in the country it just dont happen Stacey- Nutter Ian - Idiot Big Mo- Idiot Jean- Nutter Roxy- Tart Christian- Idiot Jannine- Tart- Idiot Peggy-Tart-Idiot Shirley -Tart -Idiot Chelsea -Tart Darren -a kid wheeler dealer and many more what have they done to this once really good soap?
Miss AP Miller, Devon, on July 18th, 2009
It's possible that Lucas killed Trina possibly in self defence. And what's Stacey up to?
