EastEnders has expanded the storyline of The Six with a spin-off on BBC Sounds.

All we know for certain is that six women – Stacey Slater, Sharon Watts, Kathy Cotton, Denise Fox, Suki Panesar and Linda Carter – will witness or be involved in the death, but the BBC has announced the storyline will be expanded.
