Death trap Albert Square claims another young life, but well done Lauren Crace

HAVE you recovered yet from last night's emotional EastEnders?

How cruel life is in Albert Square! Just as mother and daughter were reunited, they were cruelly torn apart when Danielle was run over.

She died in Ronnie's arms, after uttering a plaintive "Mum!".

Well done to Brummie actress Lauren Crace for those final scenes, in which Danielle finally stood up for herself and told the world who she was. Shame she didn't do it months earlier.

I bet this isn't the last we've seen of this talented young actress, who struck me as intelligent, friendly and articulate when I interviewed her - a world away from timid Danielle!

Just one thing, though. How rubbish are Walford drivers? People are forever getting knocked over while standing in the middle of the road. A foolish place to be, certainly, but they're usually in full view of motorists, who ought to have time to stop.

Yet Tiffany and Jamie both died after being hit by cars. The tragic death toll even goes back as far as Nigel's wife Debbie.

So why haven't the road safety campaigners been out protesting, talking of the Square as a 'death trap' and demanding sleeping policemen bumps in the road?

Just how many people need to die before something is done?!
