EastEnders fans had a lot to say about Kim Fox (Tameka Empson) and Big Mo Harris (Laila Morse) after their recent actions left one resident suffering from a panic attack.
Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer), as viewers know, was held captive in a lock-up by k.i.l.l.e.r Reiss Colwell (Jonny Freeman) for months.
After securing her freedom, she saved the life of sister Sonia Fowler (Natalie Cassidy), who was in a relationship with twisted Reiss.
The past few months have proven difficult for the siblings, especially following the unexpected and devastating d.e.a.t.h of Martin (James Bye).
Matters were complicated further when Bianca – in a bid to get things clearer in her head – appeared on a podcast to discuss her ordeal.
The podcast in question led to Sonia becoming the subject of social media discussion, with Kim wasting little time in trying to get the scoop for her Kimfluencer socials as she recorded livestreams and took pictures of Sonia and Bianca, actively encouraging groups of followers to gather outside her home.
Mo has been Kim’s right hand woman, assisting her in orchestrating gatherings and adding her own commentary to the situation.
Given how they’ve known Sonia and Bianca for decades, the scenes in question – which saw the duo brand No. 25 the ‘murder house’ – didn’t go down too with fans.
One particular incident proved so overwhelming that Bianca suffered a panic attack in the middle of the Square – andKim and Mo continued to quiz her on her experiences, with cameras stuck in her face and the prying eyes of ‘fans’ everywhere.
Writing on X, formerly Twitter, Michelle wrote: ‘Biancas having a panic attack & Mo and Kim are still asking her questions! That is not on!! Leave her alone and mind your business.’
Liam echoed such a sentiment, writing: ‘I’m all for comedy moments on #EastEnders but that ‘guided tour’ scene with Kim and Mo is actually tasteless.’
Ryan added: ‘Kim & Mo were so selfish tonight. Kim should know better especially after she had panic attacks after her car crash with Denzel.’
Sarah agreed, stating: ‘I’m normally all for Kim and Mo’s escapades but I think they’ve gone slightly too far!’ while Kezza Lou branded the duo’s behaviour ‘seriously shameless’.
EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One or stream from 6am on BBC iPlayer.
