'EastEnders' films huge fireball stunt - dramatic pictures

 |  By  |  77 comments
This is a dramatic first look at the huge explosion ahead on EastEnders, as a joyride for Lauren and Joey Branning goes horribly wrong.

The soap's cast and crew filmed the biggest scenes of the year so far on Friday night (September 14), for a storyline which sees Lauren and Joey's reckless actions end in disaster.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that a future storyline will see the Walford cousins crash into the front window of a shop after stealing Derek's car.

The terrifying accident leads to a massive fireball stunt, which could leave lives hanging in the balance.

While firm storyline details have yet to be confirmed, it's known that Derek arrives on the scene to pull Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa) and Joey (David Witts) from the wreckage of the vehicle.

However, just when it seems that Derek has got the pair to safety, the force of a massive explosion puts them all in further danger - as seen in our newly-released pictures.

Filming has been taking place in Keynsham, Somerset over the past week.

As Digital Spy confirmed a few days ago, the scenes in question will air in November.
