EastEnders: Rocky exits the Square and sad fans react: ‘No more Cottons left’
A bittersweet farewell to Rocky
Fans of EastEnders have shared their reactions as Rocky Cotton left Albert Square tonight, arrested by the police for his part in the cafe fire.
This came as ‘The Six’ desperately attempted to cover their tracks after killing Keanu.
With Rocky on to them – having seen Sharon outside the cafe in her wedding dress, and witnessing The Six carrying Keanu’s bundled-up body across the Square, he needed to be silenced.

Tonight’s episode (Friday, December 29) saw The Six put their plan into action.
Goaded on by Denise, Kathy called the police and told them that Rocky had set fire to the cafe for the insurance money.
The police then arrested Rocky in The Vic. Although he tried to claim ignorance, his own internet search history ultimately brought him down – and detectives charged him with the crime.
Kathy then pled with Rocky not to fight the charge. As the credits rolled, it became clear that Rocky is headed behind bars.
