EastEnders director Christopher McGill had revealed that a huge New Year stunt is in the works ahead of the BBC soap’s 40th anniversary. Over the past few weeks, McGill has been sharing updates of filming that has been taking place on the set through his social media platform. This has left all the viewers wondering about some huge event that might take place soon in Walford. Read on to know all about it.
The exceptional director of the BBC programme has got everyone’s attention through cryptic posts on Twitter. EastEnders will be celebrating its 40th anniversary at the beginning of next year and the show has been gearing up for it for quite some time now. And now, Christopher’s latest post suggests that one character of Walford might be reaching the ‘end of the pier.’
Sharing an image of a closed set filming, Christopher wrote, “Day Fourteen of @bbceastenders New Years Episodes #EndOfThePier.” This strange message looks like a hint at some major plot involving a pier of some sort. Furthermore, he also teased that something related to railway lines will also be a part of the upcoming storyline. One fan humorously asked the director, “I hope you didn’t cross the dressed set line, Chris!!!!” To which he said, “Crossing all the lines. Railway lines, too!!!”

Uh-Oh! It seems like bombshell episodes have taken two weeks to film with Chris earlier, confessing that his daily rundown was in relation to the ‘monstrous block’ of New Year episodes being recorded. We have seen several former legendary characters making a comeback in Walford, but it sounds like there will be more in the coming weeks.
Last week, McGill also confirmed that some of the episodes will take place on location when he posted that he was on a ‘travel day.’ So stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more such updates on EastEnders.
