Sharon's long-lost brother Zack (James Farrar) made his first appearance on Albert Square on Tuesday night, but on last night's episode, Sharon caught him rummaging through her flat after he stole her keys.

He was caught in the act as Sharon (Letitia Dean) found him snooping, before confronting him with a locked safe in her hands.

However, a knitted doll version of Sharon in the background caught the eye of some viewers.

Fans were in stiches after seeing the stuffed toy and were quick to post about it on Twitter.




"Brilliant! Sharon has a knitted doll of herself! #EastEnders," one fan exclaimed.

Another viewer wrote alongside a laughing emoji: "Sharon’s Sharon doll on her bed with the pink jumper."

While a third user moaned: "Wtf has Sharon got a doll of herself on her bed? #eastenders. That flat is random as hell. The photos. It’s like a museum."


Sharon was unsure of her brother in Thursday's episode when she caught him attempting to steal from her.

But after the pair talked, it emerged their father Gavin had cruelly abused Zack as a boy, leaving him brokenhearted.

Likewise Sharon was still vulnerable after the death of her son Denny and together the pair decided to give their newfound sibling relationship a go.
