EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa has spoken out about the Branning sisters' jaw-dropping Christmas Day twist for the first time.

The show's hour-long festive special ended with Lauren and Abi Branning falling from the roof of the Queen Vic while trying to talk down their father Max, who was preparing to jump.

EastEnders hasn't yet confirmed whether Lauren and Abi have been killed off, but it's no secret that both characters are leaving the show.

Discussing the top-secret twist, Jacqueline laughed: "When you're leaving, you're like: 'Well it better be Christmas Day, come on! I better be falling off The Vic!'

"You don't want the taxi ending – you want it to be big, to be huge, for everyone to be speaking about it. Obviously it's going to be one that everyone remembers. I'm absolutely buzzing about it."

Jacqueline and her on-screen sister Lorna Fitzgerald, who plays Abi, did their own stunt work for the episode. Unsurprisingly, they didn't really fall from the top of the Queen Vic, but they did drop from a 10 foot platform onto some boxes below.

Jacqueline continued: "Filming the scenes was freezing cold, as it was two in the morning! Lorna was not scared at all. But in fairness, she could see where she was falling and I was falling backwards! I didn't know what was going on!"

Jake Wood, who plays Max, added: "They built a platform and they had to fall off the back of the roof onto some boxes. I wouldn't have done it, so they were very brave!"

EastEnders continues on Boxing Day at 7.30pm on BBC One.

I am impressed with the episode altogether, hopefully this gets the most ratings from all the soaps today because eastenders was miles better but everyone will only talk about eastenders tomorrow rather than the others.

Everyone in the soaps is falling,lol,Emma,in Emmerdale,Billy in Corrie and Lauren and Abbie in EE

On another note, someone needs to gif Billy handing Phil the gun :joker:

And Tanya marching through the square :love:

That was bloody horrible. Not the lovely Branning sisters. Max is a horrible father. Should be him falling off the roof - I’d bloody push the ginger sod myself! R.

I understand why it was lauren and abi rather than Max, it was shocking and viewers will care about Lauren and Abi, but i think Abi will survive

I really don’t think Stacey is the same Stacey she was . All that character development undone in two episodes . She’s not slutty Stacey slater anymore . After everything Martin did for her when she was in the mental hospital as well . Don’t buy it . R.

Why can’t they just kill someone boring like karmel off instead ? R.
