Fire to mark last orders for Eastenders’ Queen Vic

ONE of soapland’s most famous pubs will go up in flames as EastEnders’ Queen Vic is destroyed by fire later this year, TV bosses confirmed yesterday.

The Albert Square landmark – the scene of so many celebrations, rows and recriminations – will be burned to the ground after being the BBC1 drama’s hub for a quarter of a century.

Walford chiefs have not revealed whether anyone will die in the blaze, although several characters are set to leave the soap.
