EastEnders has released first-look images of Kat Slater as the new landlady of The Queen Vic, as a new era for TV’s most famous pub begins.
Recent scenes have seen The Vic go up for auction, with the Slaters, the Beales, and slimy property developers all gunning for ownership (the Slaters first joked that they had won the lottery and were going to bid for the pub to wind Ian up, but then discovered Martin Fowler’s life insurance gave them the money for real).
Linda decided to hand the pub over to the Slaters, asking the family to “fill [the place] with love”.
In these new photos, Kat is proudly standing in front of and behind the bar, decked out in her typical animal-print patterns.

As Kat promised Linda, Mick’s football scarf has pride of place behind the bar, making sure that he will always be remembered as part of The Vic.
The new era of The Vic is sure to get off to a dramatic start, as Alfie Moon is set to return next week and learn that the family now own the iconic pub, meaning he and Kat can get behind the bar once again.

There are even more lies regarding Zoe and Alfie trying to get Stacey to give them Martin’s money. If Kat finds out, it will undoubtedly do even more damage to their volatile relationship.
