Overview

  • Kat Slater (played by Jessie Wallace) will be the Queen Vic’s sole licensee after Linda Carter and Elaine Peacock put the iconic pub up for sale.
  • The sale comes after a February explosion at the Queen Vic that claimed the lives of Martin Fowler and Reiss Colwell.
  • Slater first worked as a barmaid at the Queen Vic in 2000 and later co-licensed it with husband Alfie Moon from 2010 to 2013.
  • Kat and Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) recently remarried on-screen for the third time, reaffirming their status as a central couple on Albert Square.
  • Chris Clenshaw will oversee his final episode on June 13 after three years as executive producer, with former story editor Ben Wadey set to take over.
