FILMING Dot's Funeral 🎥 | Behind The Scenes | EastEnders 

My heart goes out to the cast today. You can tell this wasn't acting, it was real.

Dot was one of the greatest characters in British TV history. Then you saw June in interviews and she was the complete opposite of Dot. One of the best interviews I've ever seen was June on the Graham Norton show with Lady Ga Ga. She'd obviously had a few drinks but it was absolutely hilarious. RIP Dot and June ❤️❤️

The special theme at the end right the final notes really tugging at everyone’s hearts

I followed June/Dot for over 40 years...I can't imagine Eastenders without her!

I’m an Old Lady in The USA, who first started watching Eastenders on our public tv station, running it about 10 years off the present, decades ago. Had 2 separate occasions of sick & dying dogs, who would perk up when they heard the theme song, as it was treat & snuggling time their entire lives. Managed to watch Every episode with getting the Internet,& now have Britbox…& a disabled Doxie from IVDD, who gets Soo excited when She hears the theme start!!! My cockatiel of 30 years knew the Andy Griffin/Mayberry song that was whistled,& the Eastenders whistle, that he repeated Relentlessly!!! Lots of Very good, touching,& Loving memories around the soap that puts Ours to shame,& all my favorite soaps here, are long gone now. Always Loved June/Dot on & off the show,& I can’t think of Anything y’all could’ve done differently, Better, or added, for the Magnificent Send Off she was given!!! You’ll be hard pressed to top that Genuine, Loving,& Heartfelt Farewell, but that’s a Good thing, as June/Dot’s Deserves to stand alone. Her children having Cameos-Just Wow!!! And the pack of cigarettes/fags was a priceless detail!!! Thank you!!!🥰

What an emotional and beautiful episode🙌 June Brown would be so proud of you all and Dot Branning will always be the best and iconic EastEnders character ever

Dot will always remind me of my own grandmother in so many ways so is very sad to watch and say goodbye, like saying goodbye to my grandmother again, but amazing tribute to her. RIP Dot/June 😪💔

Dot had so many friends and connection's throughout her time on the square, so many she helped so it seemed unrealistic that many old faces wouldn't return.

What a wonderful send-off to a dot Cotton she was amazing in eastenders

I got so emotional my self reminded me of some of my family passes. But wow what a drama I love eastenders I’ve watched it from day 1 dot was a true genius at what she did best being an actress R I P June brow. And dot cotton very special lady god bless this screen queen. 🙏❤️

I sobbed watching the episode.

That is so sad we all miss dot on the square but what makes this sadder is knowing that june brown has died so recently it will be a very emotional episode.

It was an excellent show.Well done all at Eastenders.

I live in North Carolina. Watched EE for YEARS. This past year BBC stopped running this beloved program. The episodes were twelve years behind. If ANYONE knows how I could get my hands on EE episodes from 12 years ago, PLEASE let me know. Would have to be on American DVD format. British discs won’t work here. I MISS MY EASTENDERS!!! HELP ME PLEASE!!!

alfies a top lad

Patrick was there

Birllant episode well done to the cast and crew who created this soap just amazing work you filament it so well and fmaller faces from all over the years Collin mary lofty disa and Ine beale for a camao and Lauren branding Barry be just coming into by driving the car into the square evening dot's nef

End of an era for the UK and Eastenders. June was a very talented lady.

Couldn't you have got Morgana to do the Natalie Cassidy bits?

The cast and all of the production did an amazing thing in these 2 episodes! It was British Soap back in the golden age! Let’s hope soaps understand now, what storylines we really want. It’s not the worst of everything that’s going on in society. It should be celebrating what little values we have left

i feel sorry for the cast bless them. but the episode focused more on sonia getting all the attention shes not dots only family member

❤❤❤

Natalie Cassidy is doing this now

Rip

Whitney has no family apart from Ryan.

What music is this

🎉

Pauline, pat, Peggy, dot, were legends, when they left I stopped watching😭😭

🙏❤️

@EastEnders - R.I.P June Brown 2022 & R.I.P Dot Cotton/Branning 2022

why was dot not In it

Well the church scene ...that just don't happen does it in real life ..one after the after randomly saying something .

Don't get many characters like dot now

I wonder why they did the funeral on the show such a long time after she actually passed away 🤔

who else is a crying mess :(

Why Whitney was there

Amazing how crap Eastenders is today compared to how it was in the nineties/noughties. Rubbish storylines and of course characters like June, Barbara etc are no more. It's a shadow of it's former self.

Have no clue who Dot is... I watch only for Ben and Callum.

Will all these actors get a public funeral like this when their time is up? Hardly think so. This business, is a business of distraction. Turn of your television. Do Life.

The actress who plays Sonia doesn't look too well 😟

F

This episode was boring.

Does anyone know what the perfume is that June used to wear? Shown by Shona here?
