As the EastEnders legend says she has left Walford for good, look back at her most memorable moments.
EastEnders legend June Brown, who plays Dot Branning/Cotton, has died at the age of 95.
"I got a script and it was a series of illnesses," the actress later recalled, explaining how she made Dot a three-dimensional character. Dot and Ethel were among the soap's great double acts, and in 1987 they shared a touching two-hander episode in which they reminisced about their lives during the Second World War while babysitting little Vicki.
He intended to poison her by cooking a special shepherd's pie, but changed his mind at the last minute and went out for fish and chips instead.After a four-year break from the soap between 1993 and 1997, Dot returned to the Square to be faced with a familiar mix of highs and lows. The couple who took her in welcomed young Dot with open arms, but her arrival soon soured their relationship. Older Dot returned to find the wife on her deathbed and still blaming Dot for running away after the death of her husband.Dot had a whole episode to herself in 2008, the first British soap character to do so.
Dot had always tried to see the good in her wayward son, so viewers were shocked in 2015 to see her let him die.
