EastEnders' Adam Woodyatt and Jacqueline Jossa debate Denise Fox's love life
EastEnders will broadcast live on February 20, revealing the outcome of Denise's life-changing dilemma.
EastEnders legends have shared their thoughts on the imminent vote that will let viewers decide whom Denise Fox should pick in her unfolding love triangle. In celebration of the show's 40th anniversary, EastEnders is set to air live on February 20, unveiling the resolution of Denise's (played by Diane Parish) crucial choice.
This marks an innovative interactive moment for the show, as fans are granted the authority over Denise's love life. The hairdresser has been caught between her former husband Jack (Scott Maslen) and local mischief-maker Ravi (Aaron Thiara) for some time, and now the verdict lies with the audience.
EastEnders' stars Adam Woodyatt and Jacqueline Jossa discussed the storyline while featuring on the latest episode of 'Saturday Kitchen' with fellow actors Emma Barton and Rudolph Walker, celebrating the soap's inception in February 1985.

During the chat about the much-anticipated poll regarding Denise's romantic future, Adam and Jacqueline engaged in a light-hearted disagreement concerning who Denise should ultimately end up with, reports Plymouth Live.
Presenter Matt Tebbutt remarked: "Another big thing that is happening, this is a first I believe, you're having an interaction with the audience at home."
Ian Beale actor Adam noted: "There's little vote for the outcome of a storyline, you can go with Denise and Ravi or Denise with Jack."

He further mentioned: "In the week leading up to it, it will be everywhere, you won't be able to miss it. And you can vote for Denise and Ravi."
Adam glanced towards the camera and flashed a thumbs up, even as Jacqueline Jossa, who played Lauren Branning, stepped in to correct him: "Er, actually, it's Denise and Jack."
"No, no," Adam retorted playfully, and continued: "Look you're related to him, I'm going to go for... It's got to be Ravi, come on."
Jacqueline was quick to respond, asserting: "I'm with Jack all the way."

The stars also shared their apprehensions about the upcoming live episode.
Discussing the progress of their rehearsals, Adam revealed: "Rehearsals are going so well I didn't manage to get down here to rehearse this [referring to Saturday Kitchen]."
He added praise for their director, saying: "The rehearsals have been great. We've got a fantastic director, Lance, who did a lot of stuff for last year's Christmas episode and he's just been brilliant."
He concluded with a nod to their director's diligence, adding: "He's so prepared - he is far more prepared than the rest of us."
EastEnders airs Monday - Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
