Joy at a reunion is set to turn to tragedy in EastEnders as beloved former GP Dr Legg has confided in his close friend Dot Branning that he is going to die. Dot had caught up with the pensioner, who featured in EastEnders very first episode, when she thought that she was on her way out.
Dr Legg gave her a clean bill of health and advised her to listen to the other doctors in future and to celebrate, they had a cherry each and reminisced about their good times on Albert Square. As they both admitted that they missed each other, Dot suggested that Dr Legg came back to his old haunt to see some familiar faces and places.
He was only too glad too and he arrived at the Queen Vic, looking around wistfully and catching up with the likes of Sonia and Martin Fowler. As he settled down with Dot and soaked in the atmosphere of the community he had served for decades, Dr Legg soon turned serious.
