EastEnders returned to our screens tonight and it was the day of Dennis Rickman’s funeral.
Walford residents gathered to pay their respects to Denny during this evening’s visit to Albert Square as heartbroken mum Sharon Mitchell (Letitia Dean) paid a heartbreaking tribute to her young son.
Despite the emotional scenes, fans of the BBC One viewers were distracted by Kathy Beale’s (Gillian Taylforth) outfit choice.
Ian’s mother opted to wear a massive fedora hat to pay her respects to Denny.
Taking to Twitter, one EastEnders fan penned: “What does Kathy look like in that hat?”

A third said: “What has Kathy got on her head?”
A fourth posted: “Why f**k is Kathy dressed as Indiana Jones for Denny’s funeral?”

Elsewhere, Sharon was left gobsmacked at the end of tonight’s episode of the BBC One soap as ex Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) returned to Walford and entered Denny’s wake in the Queen Vic, despite being uninvited.
Sharon thinks Phil is to blame for her son’s death but fans know Ian Beale trapped Denny inside a room during the unexpected boat crash, which led the youngster to drown.
Will Ian confess all to best pal Sharon?
EastEnders continues on BBC One on Tuesday at 7.30pm
