EastEnders’ Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) delivered perhaps one of the most explosive lines in TV history with the iconic “You ain’t my mother!”, “Yes I am!” scene back in 2001.
Kat had given birth to Zoe as a teenager after she was raped by her uncle Harry Slater. She believed her only child was being raised as her sister, but as she learned in 2015, she actually had another, a boy, after giving birth to twins.

On the hunt to find out who her eldest son was, she and Alfie went to Redwater, prompting a spin-off for the pair. After spending a lot of time looking for her son, she discovered he was the twisted vicar, Dermott Dolan (Oisín Stack).

Immediately he had people in his comments encouraging him to return to EastEnders, which Oisín said he would “love” to do. However, Kat and Alfie haven’t spoken much about her forgotten son since they returned.

This could be because the ending of Redwater left their relationship up in the air. It was revealed that Dermott was a killer and he had lured his mum out toto sea with the intention of drowning her.
