EastEnders fans left 'heartbroken' by Shirley Carter star's 'incredible' performance

EastEnders fans took to social media to praise Shirley Carter actress Linda Henry’s performance, following the shock revelation about Shirley’s sister Tina Carter.

Viewers watched the BBC soap as Shirley Carter crumbled following confirmation that the body recently found underneath the Argee Barjee restaurant was Tina’s.

DI Arthurs informed Shirley of the devastating news, leaving her struggling to comprehend what had happened – and dealing with the truth that her sister had not left Albert Square after all.

Following the emotional scenes, fans flooded social media with praise for Linda Henry’s performance as Shirley Carter, with one viewer saying: “Bl**dy hell. Take a bow @maddy_hill90 @MrDDyer and Linda Henry. Acting off the bl**dy chart. A master class! Thank you x.”

A second added: “Linda Henry – WOW! Brilliant,” while a third commented: “Nobody does drama like EastEnders. That was a tough watch but so good, actress Linda Henry killing it in both episodes tonight!”

Viewers also stated they they were left heartbroken by Linda’s performance, with a fourth saying: “Linda Henry what an actress. Felt her pain, she broke my heart tonight.”

A fifth added: “Linda Henry is just superb – she never fails to make me cry when she’s upset.”

Other fans called for Linda to be honoured for her performance, with a sixth fan saying: “The way Shirley got told about Tina really resonated with me… Give Linda Henry all the awards!”

While EastEnders viewers knew that Tina had previously been murdered by Gray Atkins, her sister Shirley had presumed that Tina had left Albert Square.

Her thoughts were further reassured by supposed texts from Tina saying that she was alive and well – but viewers knew that these messages were secretly sent by her killer Gray Atkins, who also told Shirley that he had seen her.

Gray Atkins had recently awoken from his coma in hospital and on his return home began asking residents what they knew about Tina’s body.

However, with Shirley discovering the truth about Tina, it seems that it may only be a matter of time before Gray Atkins’ murderous lies start to unravel.

EastEnders moves to a new schedule next week airing at 7.30pm daily Monday to Thursday from March 7.
