She doesn’t want to go into business with Sharon… <\/p>
Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) made another secret phone call in tonight\u2019s EastEnders<\/a> (Thursday 23rd March), sparking fresh mystery in her future plans for The Queen Vic.<\/p>\n The landlady is supposed to be going into business with best pal Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), with Sharon offering to buy Janine Butcher\u2019s (Charlie Brooks) share of the pub. But Linda clearly has other arrangements in mind, having previously made a plea to an unknown character.<\/p>\n Tonight, Sharon spotted Linda looking downcast, as she was still coming to terms with the harrowing events that led to her soulmate Mick (Danny Dyer) going missing<\/a>. With Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) in need of an assistant to sell knock-off wedding dresses to raise much-needed funds, Sharon pointed him Linda\u2019s way.<\/p> But Linda explained that she just wasn\u2019t in the mood for romance and weddings at present \u2013 and who could blame her? She also added that Janine\u2019s plea hearing would be taking place next week.<\/p>\n Upon seeing Alfie struggling to make his selling banter work with a group of women, though, Sharon urged Linda to put him out of his misery. So Linda joined the crowd and made out that she was desperate to buy one of the dresses herself, announcing that she had seen the exact same design selling for three grand elsewhere.<\/p>
