Speaking on This Morning, Shane warned viewers of the soap that Kat's injuries as a result of the fire will be 'life-changing'.

He said: "For Jessie as an actress, being able to play the storyline we have got coming up after this event is brilliant."

He added: "It will be such a departure from how we know Kat now - the tart with the heart and the heavy make-up. She will become the complete opposite to that. It is heartbreaking."

Eastenders will air on Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC1.
