Peggy was played by actress <a href="/wiki/Jo_Warne" title="Jo Warne">Jo Warne</a> for a period of three months, but was written out upon the completion of the storyline.

Scott Matthewman of <a href="/wiki/The_Stage" title="The Stage">The Stage</a> commented on the recast in 2006: "Quite the biggest – and most inexplicable – transformation is that of Peggy Mitchell in EastEnders. While Barbara Windsor has dominated the role...first appearing in [1994], the character had appeared briefly [three] years earlier, played by Jo Warne, a lady who physically is as different from our Babs as it's possible to get."<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> Steve McFadden and Ross Kemp had attempted to persuade EastEnders writer <a href="/wiki/Tony_Jordan" title="Tony Jordan">Tony Jordan</a> to develop a spin-off for their characters, which would star Windsor as Peggy. The idea never advanced beyond informal discussions, but when the producers decided to reintroduce Peggy, McFadden and Kemp suggested Windsor play her.<a href="#cite_note-RT-7">[7]</a> Windsor had previously expressed a desire to join the cast of EastEnders.

However, Windsor was already in negotiations with the BBC about appearing in the serial.<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> June Deitch, the EastEnders casting director, had met with Windsor to discuss the matter, and was convinced when Windsor declared that she would "like to play my own age for a change".<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> At the time, the producers had already thought about reintroducing Peggy, and Windsor was cast despite originally being considered too "well-known".<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> Windsor has spoken of her "terrified" reaction to being asked to audition, commenting: "I had the weekend to prepare and I cried all the time. I didn't know how to do soap acting. I was so used to using my hands, my eyes."<a href="#cite_note-Telegraph-11">[11]</a> She auditioned with two scenes, one emotion, one "jolly" which Windsor has described as "agony", explaining: "I was afraid of playing Barbara Windsor, so when I had to laugh I went 'huh, huh'. Anything rather than 'tee, hee, hee'."<a href="#cite_note-Telegraph-11">[11]</a> In an interview with the Walford Gazette, a US-based newspaper dedicated to EastEnders, Windsor commented on her casting: "I was thrilled, I could rest my tired bones working on a marvelous television show that I deeply respected. I was very excited about the possibility [of] playing this feisty lady who would come in and shake up her two boys' lives."<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> Windsor has been described as the biggest "name" that EastEnders has ever added to its cast, and her arrival came at a time in the show's history that has been branded its "worst creative period".<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> Mark Lawson for <a href="/wiki/The_Independent" title="The Independent">The Independent</a> wrote that Windsor's casting was intended to combat low ratings, commenting: "The Windsor initiative seems to be a direct response to suggestions that EastEnders has become too gloomy: a view heavily advanced by <a href="/wiki/Roy_Hattersley" title="Roy Hattersley">Roy Hattersley</a>, former deputy leader of the <a href="/wiki/Labour_Party_(UK)" title="Labour Party (UK)">Labour Party</a>, and fan of the BBC series' rival on <a href="/wiki/ITV_(TV_network)" title="ITV (TV network)">ITV</a>, <a href="/wiki/Coronation_Street" title="Coronation Street">Coronation Street</a>.

Ironically, viewers complained that she was too upmarket."<a href="#cite_note-Telegraph-11">[11]</a> Windsor has commented of the impact of her pre-existing celebrity status: <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}</style><blockquote class="templatequote"><a href="/wiki/Wendy_Richard" title="Wendy Richard">Wendy Richard</a> [who played <a href="/wiki/Pauline_Fowler" title="Pauline Fowler">Pauline Fowler</a>] certainly had name value but I suppose it was regarded differently because she was part of the original cast. When I was brought on [to EastEnders] the press made such a big deal. They made it seem like I was brought on to 'save' EastEnders or something, which was ridiculous...the show decided to move into the "<a href="/wiki/Sharongate" title="Sharongate">Sharongate</a>" storyline, which gave it an enormous push, creatively and ratings-wise. Peggy was brought on as an extension of the Sharongate story because she was Phil and Grant's mum. I understand why the show was uneasy about bringing on any really well known actors because they want the audience [to] believe in and identify with the character without having any of the actor's baggage in their heads...<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Characterisation">Characterisation</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Peggy_Mitchell&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Characterisation">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1235681985">.mw-parser-output .side-box{margin:4px 0;box-sizing:border-box;border:1px solid #aaa;font-size:88%;line-height:1.25em;background-color:var(--background-color-interactive-subtle,#f8f9fa);display:flow-root}.mw-parser-output .side-box-abovebelow,.mw-parser-output .side-box-text{padding:0.25em 0.9em}.mw-parser-output .side-box-image{padding:2px 0 2px 0.9em;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .side-box-imageright{padding:2px 0.9em 2px 0;text-align:center}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .side-box-flex{display:flex;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .side-box-text{flex:1;min-width:0}}@media(min-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .side-box{width:238px}.mw-parser-output .side-box-right{clear:right;float:right;margin-left:1em}.mw-parser-output .side-box-left{margin-right:1em}}</style><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1096940132">.mw-parser-output .listen .side-box-text{line-height:1.1em}.mw-parser-output .listen-plain{border:none;background:transparent}.mw-parser-output .listen-embedded{width:100%;margin:0;border-width:1px 0 0 0;background:transparent}.mw-parser-output .listen-header{padding:2px}.mw-parser-output .listen-embedded .listen-header{padding:2px 0}.mw-parser-output .listen-file-header{padding:4px 0}.mw-parser-output .listen .description{padding-top:2px}.mw-parser-output .listen .mw-tmh-player{max-width:100%}@media(max-width:719px){.mw-parser-output .listen{clear:both}}@media(min-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .listen:not(.listen-noimage){width:320px}.mw-parser-output .listen-left{overflow:visible;float:left}.mw-parser-output .listen-center{float:none;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto}}</style><div class="side-box side-box-right listen noprint"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409" /> <div class="side-box-flex"> <div class="side-box-image"><figure class="mw-halign-center" typeof="mw:File"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg/50px-Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="50" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg/75px-Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg/100px-Gnome-mime-sound-openclipart.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="160" data-file-height="160" /><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div> <div class="side-box-text plainlist"><div class="haudio"> <div class="listen-file-header"><a href="/wiki/File:Get_outta_my_pub!.ogg" title="File:Get outta my pub!.ogg">"Get outta my pub!"</a></div> <div><audio id="mwe_player_0" controls="" preload="none" data-mw-tmh="" class="mw-file-element" width="232" style="width:232px;" data-durationhint="5" data-mwtitle="Get_outta_my_pub!.ogg" data-mwprovider="local"><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6f/Get_outta_my_pub%21.ogg" type="audio/ogg; codecs="vorbis"" data-width="0" data-height="0" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/transcoded/6/6f/Get_outta_my_pub%21.ogg/Get_outta_my_pub%21.ogg.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" data-transcodekey="mp3" data-width="0" data-height="0" /></audio></div> <div class="description">Peggy's famous catchphrase, from the 1 April 2008 episode of EastEnders.</div></div></div></div> <div class="side-box-abovebelow"><hr />Problems playing this file?

She has commented, "a few things weren't quite right about Peggy at the beginning. On a purely superficial level, the wig didn't fit right. And the clothes weren't right either. They appeared too downmarket. I was particularly worried about how the character was viewed by the producer and writers. I saw her as much ballsier than they did. I think they envisioned Peggy as this rather sad, vulnerable lady who spent all her time worrying about her children."<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> However, early in 1995, EastEnders acquired a new executive producer, <a href="/wiki/Corinne_Hollingworth" title="Corinne Hollingworth">Corinne Hollingworth</a>, who shared Windsor's vision of Peggy. It was Hollingworth who decided that Peggy would be a central character, the new landlady of <a href="/wiki/The_Queen_Victoria" class="mw-redirect" title="The Queen Victoria">The Queen Victoria</a> <a href="/wiki/Public_house" class="mw-redirect" title="Public house">public house</a>, one of the soap's main focal points. Hollingworth stated that Peggy was "not going to be allowed to just sit in some flat polishing her nails".<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> Windsor has said: "It was like a dream. [Hollingworth] let me go out with the costume designer and choose Peggy's wardrobe, which needed to be a lot more flash and upmarket. Corinne and I worked on getting Peggy right and I finally began to believe...".<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> Windsor has described Peggy as "from the old school, the generation which doesn't put up with rubbish from anybody...She can get through practically anything because she's tough, tough, tough."<a href="#cite_note-WG-9">[9]</a> The character has been classified by Rupert Smith, author of EastEnders: 20 Years in Albert Square, as a matriarch, assuming "papal infallibility. Whatever anybody does — particularly her own children — she knows better."<a href="#cite_note-20_years-14">[14]</a> She has also been branded a "battleaxe" by Dave West of entertainment website <a href="/wiki/Digital_Spy" title="Digital Spy">Digital Spy</a>,<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> and someone who "wears her heart on her sleeve" by Windsor.<a href="#cite_note-transcript-16">[16]</a> Family-orientated, Windsor adds that: "[Peggy] loves her family with a passion. Her worst qualities are that she's blinkered, sometimes wrongly passionate about her family."<a href="#cite_note-transcript-16">[16]</a> It has been speculated that Windsor based Peggy on Violet Kray, mother of the infamous <a href="/wiki/East_End" class="mw-redirect" title="East End">East End</a> gangsters, the <a href="/wiki/Kray_twins" title="Kray twins">Kray twins</a>; however Windsor has denied this.<a href="#cite_note-transcript-16">[16]</a> Instead, she claims that Peggy is based on women she has seen in East End pubs and her own mother: "women whose hair is great and their outfits are more <a href="/wiki/Walthamstow_market" class="mw-redirect" title="Walthamstow market">Walthamstow market</a>, they get it wrong slightly...Some things I've done with Peggy is from my Mum. She was one of those East End snobs. I drew on all of those experiences."<a href="#cite_note-transcript-16">[16]</a> In a 2009 radio interview with <a href="/wiki/Dale_Winton" title="Dale Winton">Dale Winton</a>, Windsor said three people have influenced her portrayal of Peggy: Violet Kray (thus retracting her earlier statement), her own mother, and the actor <a href="/wiki/Mike_Reid_(actor)" title="Mike Reid (actor)">Mike Reid</a>, who played her on-screen husband Frank Butcher.<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Peggy_Mitchell&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Development">edit</a>]</div> Peggy has been central to numerous high-profile storylines, including a battle with <a href="/wiki/Breast_cancer" title="Breast cancer">breast cancer</a>, a failed marriage to Frank Butcher, and various business and family upsets.<a href="#cite_note-break-18">[18]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Breast_cancer">Breast cancer</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Peggy_Mitchell&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Breast cancer">edit</a>]</div> In 1996, Peggy featured in a storyline about <a href="/wiki/Breast_cancer" title="Breast cancer">breast cancer</a>. It was the first time that the soap had given one of its characters the illness, though the issue was covered much less substantially in 1987 as a means of promoting <a href="/wiki/Mammography" title="Mammography">breast cancer screening</a>, when <a href="/wiki/Sue_Osman" title="Sue Osman">Sue Osman</a> (<a href="/wiki/Sandy_Ratcliff" title="Sandy Ratcliff">Sandy Ratcliff</a>) discovered a lump on her breast, which turned out to be benign. Peggy's breast cancer storyline was devised at the suggestion of a scriptwriter in a story conference session and, according to the production staff, was an idea "that had been knocking about for a long time."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> In Lesley Henderson's book, Social Issues in Television Fiction, an EastEnders researcher explains that: "A lot of illnesses [...] translate quite readily into strong dramatic material", and the experience of being hospitalised or waiting on test results is something everyone can identify with.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> The programme sought expert advice on "storyline visuals" from a variety of sources including cancer organisations, breast cancer charities and medical professionals.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> There were anticipated problems with running a breast cancer story, such as timing, characterisation, casting, and interweaving the plot with other ongoing storylines. A story editor has explained: "EastEnders is perceived as being an issue-led show, but it isn't, it's character and story-led [...] If you haven't got the character to fulfill that storyline then it won't work. You've got to be careful to make sure that the illness actually impacts on the family dynamics and the character development."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Producers decided to use Peggy in the breast cancer storyline, conforming to a soap opera tradition of reserving strong roles for a firmly established middle-aged matriarch.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> The audience were familiar with Peggy's history, knew that her first husband had died from cancer, consequently making her fear hospitals, and she had: "the right mentality for [the story theme], which was about 'a woman who discovers a lump and then refuses to accept that anything's wrong'. An added factor was that in choosing Peggy the programme could avoid appearing too issue driven, and [the] storyline could be used as a device to expand and develop her characterisation."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Additionally, as the causes of breast cancer are not attributable to risky behaviour, the disease was deemed "more attractive" in storyline terms. A member of the EastEnders production team explains: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712" /><blockquote class="templatequote">If you take a character who smokes and they get <a href="/wiki/Lung_cancer" title="Lung cancer">lung cancer</a> that would seem too issue-driven. The great thing about a character like Peggy is [her breast cancer was] quite unexpected. At the time there were lots of other issues in her life. She was a character who audiences had only seen pulling pints behind the bar. Suddenly she was in a new environment in a hospital and had a huge medical crisis to go through, so that allowed the character to grow and expand in many ways...There was also fairly major moments [...] with Peggy and [her boyfriend <a href="/wiki/George_Palmer_(EastEnders)" title="George Palmer (EastEnders)">George Palmer</a> (<a href="/wiki/Paul_Moriarty_(actor)" title="Paul Moriarty (actor)">Paul Moriarty</a>)]. She thought George wouldn't love her any more after she'd had the operation. We were able to use the illness to take them on a new journey.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a></blockquote> In the view of the production team, Peggy's breast cancer was a catalyst, creating new dynamics and tensions amongst existing characters. Realism was also an issue. As a middle-aged woman, Peggy was epidemiologically at higher risk for developing breast cancer.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> In 2001, it was reported that Peggy's character was one of only a few media portrayals of older females to be given the disease, and source organisations have praised EastEnders for this.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Ross_Kemp.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Ross_Kemp.jpg/220px-Ross_Kemp.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="207" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Ross_Kemp.jpg/330px-Ross_Kemp.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Ross_Kemp.jpg/440px-Ross_Kemp.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1828" data-file-height="1724" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Ross_Kemp" title="Ross Kemp">Ross Kemp</a> plays Peggy's son <a href="/wiki/Grant_Mitchell_(EastEnders)" title="Grant Mitchell (EastEnders)">Grant</a>. The issue of whether Peggy's children would discover her breast cancer was used to build tension and create suspense in the viewing audience.</figcaption></figure> The storyline used elements of suspense, created by the use of "shared secrets" between Peggy and her daughter-in-law <a href="/wiki/Tiffany_Mitchell" title="Tiffany Mitchell">Tiffany Mitchell</a> (<a href="/wiki/Martine_McCutcheon" title="Martine McCutcheon">Martine McCutcheon</a>), who invented elaborate cover stories to mask Peggy's trips to hospital from her sons and partner. Tension was deliberately built for viewing pleasure, posing the questions of whether Peggy's lump was benign or malignant and whether she would die, but also in terms of Peggy's relationships, whether her children would discover the truth or if George would end their relationship. Henderson has suggested that: "such devises [added] pathos to Peggy's treatment path. Audiences [knew] that she [was] terrified and about to discover her biopsy results, but must watch as she is casually castigated by her son Grant for pestering his wife Tiffany to accompany her to 'the dentist'."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Hospital scenes were also played for narrative pace to build tension and drama.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Because "radical, body-altering" surgery on a long-running character would cause the production team ongoing problems with continuity, it was decided that Peggy would have a "less visible" <a href="/wiki/Lumpectomy" title="Lumpectomy">lumpectomy</a>, rather than a <a href="/wiki/Mastectomy" title="Mastectomy">mastectomy</a>. A member of the EastEnders production team explained: "We have to think about costume and what it's going to look like afterwards and what we're lumbering ourselves with [...] you have to think of that for a long-term character."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Additionally, giving Peggy a lumpectomy at that stage of her disease was viewed favourably by source organisations, as it helped to spread a message that a mastectomy is not necessary in all breast cancer cases.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> However, the storyline was revisited several times over the next few years. In August 1997, Peggy was given the "all-clear" at her follow-up mammogram, and in March 1999 the cancer returned and she underwent a mastectomy, while in 2000 she had a breast reconstruction.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> It has been reported that Peggy was the first soap opera character to undergo a mastectomy.<a href="#cite_note-mastectomy-20">[20]</a> BBC Production chief executive <a href="/wiki/Matthew_Bannister" title="Matthew Bannister">Matthew Bannister</a> praised Windsor's portrayal of Peggy coming to terms with a mastectomy, commenting: "It's brought a good deal of comfort and help to us and a lot of other people."<a href="#cite_note-wedding-21">[21]</a> Oncology nurses and consultants were involved in the development of the storyline, which was based on a real life case study. In <a href="/wiki/Clive_Seale" title="Clive Seale">Clive Seale</a>'s book, Health and the Media, EastEnders was praised for putting its message across without being "gruelling".<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> It has also been praised for showing "potent scenes" of a woman coming to terms with her diagnosis, scenes that also provided "rare opportunities" to portray a cancer patient "behaving badly" and depicting "ambivalent feelings (such as denial or anger)" — as it had been noted that cancer patients are typically portrayed in the media as "beatific, serene figures".<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> When Peggy had a mastectomy, hundreds of viewers wrote to the BBC to thank producer, <a href="/wiki/Matthew_Robinson_(producer)" title="Matthew Robinson (producer)">Matthew Robinson</a> for tackling "a difficult subject so sensitively".<a href="#cite_note-mastectomy-20">[20]</a> However, not all viewers were impressed with the storyline. Felicity Smart, who had undergone a mastectomy, wrote to the BBC on behalf of the Breast Carer Support Group at <a href="/wiki/St_Thomas%27_Hospital" title="St Thomas' Hospital">St Thomas' Hospital</a> in London to say that emotionally the storyline "hit the spot", but medically it was "hopelessly inaccurate" as according to Smart: "No one pulls pints and wisecracks with customers three days after having a mastectomy."<a href="#cite_note-mastectomy-20">[20]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Marriage_to_Frank_Butcher">Marriage to Frank Butcher</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Peggy_Mitchell&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Marriage to Frank Butcher">edit</a>]</div> In 1998, Peggy was romantically paired on-screen with the character <a href="/wiki/Frank_Butcher" title="Frank Butcher">Frank Butcher</a> (<a href="/wiki/Mike_Reid_(actor)" title="Mike Reid (actor)">Mike Reid</a>). Their coupling was part of producer Matthew Robinson's plan to place the focus of the soap back on to the Butcher and <a href="/wiki/Mitchell_family" title="Mitchell family">Mitchell families</a>, while various other long-running characters were axed following a decline in ratings. The soap was attracting 15.74 million viewers in May 1998, as opposed to rival soap <a href="/wiki/Coronation_Street" title="Coronation Street">Coronation Street</a>'s 16 million.<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> Played by <a href="/wiki/Mike_Reid_(actor)" title="Mike Reid (actor)">Mike Reid</a>, Frank had been a regular character in the serial from 1987 to 1994, and had appeared in a recurring role until 1998, when Reid agreed to return full-time. Frank's history on the show included a former marriage to another long-running matriarch, <a href="/wiki/Pat_Butcher" title="Pat Butcher">Pat Butcher</a> (<a href="/wiki/Pam_St._Clement" class="mw-redirect" title="Pam St. Clement">Pam St. Clement</a>). Their history as lovers featured prominently in Peggy's narrative in 1998, when, after agreeing to marry Frank, Peggy was wrongly told that Frank and Pat were having an affair. A special <a href="/wiki/Two-hander" title="Two-hander">two-hander</a> episode aired in November 1998, <a href="/wiki/List_of_EastEnders_two-hander_episodes#Pat_Evans_and_Peggy_Mitchell_(27_October_1998)" title="List of EastEnders two-hander episodes">featuring only Pat and Peggy</a> for the entire duration. It concentrated on Peggy's reaction to the suspected affair, whilst simultaneously addressing Pat's unresolved history with Frank and the apparent destruction of Pat's own marriage to <a href="/wiki/Roy_Evans_(EastEnders)" title="Roy Evans (EastEnders)">Roy</a> (<a href="/wiki/Tony_Caunter" title="Tony Caunter">Tony Caunter</a>), who had also responded badly to the rumours about his wife's infidelity. The episode, written by <a href="/wiki/Tony_Jordan" title="Tony Jordan">Tony Jordan</a>, featured what the <a href="/wiki/Sunday_Mirror" title="Sunday Mirror">Sunday Mirror</a> described as one of "the most vicious fights ever filmed by a soap",<a href="#cite_note-fight-24">[24]</a> with both throwing glasses at one another and Pat slapping Peggy across the face exclaiming "You bitch!" and Peggy responding by slapping Pat exclaiming "You cow!".<a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a> According to press reports, the fight scene between the characters was "so powerful that it had to have scenes and dialogue cut so it could be screened before the 9 pm watershed." Barbara Windsor was reportedly bruised during the filming. Windsor commented, "The writer didn't want a namby- pamby cat fight between two silly girls. We were throwing chairs and bottles and the adrenaline was at a high. When I saw the programme I couldn't believe how good it was. Pam and I were really proud." The Sunday Mirror described it as: "one of the most impressive episodes of all time".<a href="#cite_note-fight-24">[24]</a> In the climax of the storyline, both couples resolved their differences, and their relationships remained intact. Peggy and Frank were married on-screen on 1 April 1999. A "hen night" was thrown for Windsor with the show's make-up team, and the BBC threw a "massive" party in the show's <a href="/wiki/Albert_Square" class="mw-redirect" title="Albert Square">Albert Square</a> to celebrate the event. Actors Windsor and Reid joined fellow stars, celebrities and TV executives for a celebration on the programme's set in <a href="/wiki/BBC_Elstree_Centre" title="BBC Elstree Centre">Elstree</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hertfordshire" title="Hertfordshire">Hertfordshire</a>. Windsor admitted she had been so nervous before filming the wedding she was sick on set. She commented, "I broke out in spots and threw up in the vestry. I was very nervous – we were both very nervous. The day you stop getting nervous you can hold your hands up. It shows you care."<a href="#cite_note-wedding-21">[21]</a> The soap wedding was filmed in <a href="/wiki/Harrow,_London" title="Harrow, London">Harrow</a>, <a href="/wiki/North_West_London" class="mw-redirect" title="North West London">North West London</a> in February 1999. A BBC spokesman commented: "It is one of the best weddings Walford has ever seen but it is not problem free. There are a lot of people who do not want to see Frank and Peggy married – Grant being one of them – and it remains to be seen whether they will get through the day without a major upset. And as if the wedding is not gripping enough, there are certainly shocking revelations back at the Vic."<a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a> In the eventual episode, it was actually Grant Mitchell who persuaded his mother to marry Frank – with whom he had been feuding following his accidental killing of wife Tiffany – after Peggy was having second thoughts, thinking that Frank was only marrying her out of pity.<a href="#cite_note-wedding-21">[21]</a> Nearly 20 million viewers watched Peggy and Frank marry.<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a> Together Frank and Peggy ran The Queen Victoria, and were involved in various family and business crises, including a "tug-of-war" for their public house with "cuckoo-in-the-nest" <a href="/wiki/Dan_Sullivan_(EastEnders)" title="Dan Sullivan (EastEnders)">Dan Sullivan</a> (<a href="/wiki/Craig_Fairbrass" title="Craig Fairbrass">Craig Fairbrass</a>).<a href="#cite_note-quit-28">[28]</a> After taking time off in 2000 due to ill-health, Reid announced that he was quitting the soap in May 2000.<a href="#cite_note-quit-28">[28]</a> After Reid publicly declared that he would love Frank to have a last fling with Pat before he left, EastEnders' bosses granted his wish and an affair was scripted.<a href="#cite_note-sunshine-29">[29]</a> The pair enjoyed a liaison on a Spanish beach during a week-long August special set on the <a href="/wiki/Costa_Blanca" title="Costa Blanca">Costa Blanca</a>, which saw Frank and Peggy go away with Pat and Roy and <a href="/wiki/Terry_Raymond" title="Terry Raymond">Terry</a> and <a href="/wiki/Irene_Raymond" title="Irene Raymond">Irene Raymond</a> (<a href="/wiki/Gavin_Richards" title="Gavin Richards">Gavin Richards</a> and <a href="/wiki/Roberta_Taylor" title="Roberta Taylor">Roberta Taylor</a>).<a href="#cite_note-sunshine-29">[29]</a> A BBC spokesperson said: "Pat is obviously incredibly torn between her love for her husband, Roy, and her old feelings for Frank. She's been hurt by Frank in the past, but she's coming to realise that she still has strong feelings for him and he has made no secret of his soft spot for her. I can confirm they do enjoy a romantic kiss on the beach."<a href="#cite_note-sunshine-29">[29]</a> On-screen, Pat and Frank's affair continued until they decided, in November 2000, to elope. In the specially extended episode marking Frank's official exit — which aired on 2 November 2000, but was <a href="/wiki/Guy_Fawkes_Night" title="Guy Fawkes Night">Guy Fawkes Night</a> in the on-screen events – Peggy discovered the affair amidst Frank's attempt to retrieve a letter of confession, following Pat's change of heart. After revealing their deception to a busy Queen Victoria public house, Peggy slapped both Pat and Frank, rebuffed Frank's attempt at reconciliation and left him to depart alone.<a href="#cite_note-30">[30]</a> In December 2000, Ian Hyland of the Sunday Mirror voted the scene in which Peggy slaps both Pat and Frank as one of the "TV fights of the year", saying "It was Peggy's speech which really made it a Bonfire Night to remember. But the slaps were equally well dispatched."<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a> Commenting on Reid's exit, Windsor has said, "We fell out when I found out he was leaving because it was a shock for me. I was really upset. I've known him 30 odd years and I really like working with him. We had a great relationship as friends as well as performers. I got my own back when I had to slap him after I found out he was fooling around with Pat.

After this, it was announced that the character was to be killed off, losing her battle with breast cancer. The scenes were filmed in secret in November 2015, following Windsor's personal decision for Peggy to be killed. She said: "Peggy is a character close to my heart but I made the decision a while ago that I need to say goodbye to Peggy once and for all as otherwise she will always be there, urging me to go back and that is something I need to shut the door on. After thinking long and hard about it, I realised that it is time for me and the audience to say our final farewells to the lady who I have loved for many years and I thought that whilst [executive producer <a href="/wiki/Dominic_Treadwell-Collins" title="Dominic Treadwell-Collins">Dominic Treadwell-Collins</a>], who I adore, is still in charge I want him to be the one to oversee it.

So this is the end of an EastEnders era. But it is also an opportunity to send Peggy Mitchell out in style in what will be one of the most heartbreaking, uplifting and epic exits an EastEnders character has ever had.

Although Peggy eventually comes to accept the baby, Edwards breaks up with her and leaves Walford for good. Just a few years later, Peggy finds herself reacquainted with Archie no sooner after his two daughters <a href="/wiki/Ronnie_Mitchell" title="Ronnie Mitchell">Ronnie</a> (<a href="/wiki/Samantha_Womack" title="Samantha Womack">Samantha Womack</a>) and <a href="/wiki/Roxy_Mitchell" title="Roxy Mitchell">Roxy</a> (<a href="/wiki/Rita_Simons" title="Rita Simons">Rita Simons</a>) arrive to live with her at the pub. She forms a relationship with him and the pair get engaged, although Archie quickly begins subtly controlling Peggy. They nonetheless get married, but it ends a few hours later when it is publicly transpires that Archie lied to Ronnie about her infant daughter's death. Peggy has Archie evicted from The Queen Vic and attempts to have Phil kill him in revenge, but she is left furious when Phil doesn't go through with it in the end. Peggy files for divorce and Archie plots revenge on the entire Mitchell family. When Peggy loses the bail surety she has paid on behalf of her daughter Sam, who breaks the conditions of her bail following coercion from Archie, the Mitchells are forced to use The Queen Vic to gain a collateral loan from Phil's sworn arch-rival and estranged stepson <a href="/wiki/Ian_Beale" title="Ian Beale">Ian Beale</a> (<a href="/wiki/Adam_Woodyatt" title="Adam Woodyatt">Adam Woodyatt</a>) in order to surmount their debts. Archie thereafter uses Janine to blackmail Ian into selling him the loan, and when the Mitchells are unable to meet the loan repayment, Archie evicts them and assumes ownership of the pub. However, Archie is murdered on Christmas Day 2009 by an unknown assailant (see <a href="/wiki/Who_Killed_Archie%3F" title="Who Killed Archie?">Who Killed Archie?</a>).

Eventually they both pull out of the election, but Harvey hears of this and individually invites them both out. They both finally discover his two-timing, and humiliate him as punishment.

Believing that her son is an unfit parent and fearing for Louise's safety, Peggy takes Louise to Lisa against Phil's wishes. Although Lisa promises to allow Phil visitation, she flees with Louise just as the Mitchells learn about this too late. Phil blames Peggy for the loss of his child and begins relapsing his alcoholism as well as developing a crack cocaine addiction. Peggy tries to stop Phil using crack by locking him in her pub, but Phil escapes and in a drunken bid for revenge, he sets fire to the pub (see <a href="/wiki/Queen_Vic_Fire_Week" title="Queen Vic Fire Week">Queen Vic Fire Week</a>). Peggy watches in horror as it is destroyed. Realizing her role in Phil's problems, Peggy decides to leave Walford for his sake. After saying tearful goodbyes to her family and making peace with Phil in a heartfelt conversation beteeen them, Peggy takes one last look at The Queen Vic and leaves Albert Square (which included her own version of the <a href="/wiki/EastEnders_theme_tune" title="EastEnders theme tune">EastEnders theme tune</a>, known as "Peggy's Theme"). <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2013–2016">2013–2016</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Peggy_Mitchell&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: 2013–2016">edit</a>]</div> In January 2012, Peggy misses Pat's funeral as she is on a cruise, and in 2013, Phil visits Peggy in Cornwall with Ben's baby daughter, <a href="/wiki/Lexi_Pearce" class="mw-redirect" title="Lexi Pearce">Lexi Pearce</a> (Dotti-Beau Cotterill).

Afterwards, she visits Pat's old house and leaves a bottle of gin on the doorstep as a way of saying goodbye. In September 2014, Peggy appears in Portugal, telling Ronnie to go back to Walford and stop Phil from marrying Sharon. In February 2015, Peggy returns to Albert Square to confront her old friend <a href="/wiki/Dot_Branning" class="mw-redirect" title="Dot Branning">Dot Branning</a> (<a href="/wiki/June_Brown" title="June Brown">June Brown</a>), after Dot's notoriously villainous son <a href="/wiki/Nick_Cotton" title="Nick Cotton">Nick Cotton</a> (<a href="/wiki/John_Altman_(actor)" title="John Altman (actor)">John Altman</a>) cut the brakes on a car and falsely incriminated Phil.

When he soon goes to visit at her house, Peggy is there, having returned a week earlier. Peggy is disgusted to see that Phil has returned to alcoholism, but does give him Louise's address. She then reveals her breast cancer has returned, and she is dying. Phil tries to admit that he has cirrhosis of the liver, but she refuses to see him again and he leaves. In May, Peggy turns up on Ronnie's doorstep, and the next day Sal arrives with the news that Peggy's chemotherapy is not working and she is dying. A hospital appointment confirms that Peggy's cancer has spread to her brain and it is terminal. Peggy finally faces Phil, who is in recovery from his alcoholism, and admits she is dying. He is upset that she is refusing any more treatment, and takes her on a boat trip on the Thames, and back to their childhood home, to try to make her fight. However, Peggy is not convinced and asks Phil to help her die. Sharon calls Grant back to Walford, and he persuades Phil not to help Peggy. She tells them both she will not kill herself. After talking with Dot and settling old feuds with Sharon and Stacey, and having one last drink at the Queen Vic, Peggy begins hallucinating the smell of cigarette smoke; this eventually manifests into a vision of Pat. As the two reminisce about past memories, Peggy states she still wants to commit suicide, as she wants everyone to remember her as a strong woman, and not see her deteriorate and eventually die. Upon being reassured by Pat that she will not leave her side, Peggy then commits suicide by taking an overdose of her pills. Phil is devastated to find her body, and a letter from her urges him to love himself as others love him. Peggy's funeral takes place on 4 July 2016. Phil is due to give a eulogy, but gets too emotional and rushes home.

Windsor has since revealed that she was initially opposed to the storyline: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712" /><blockquote class="templatequote">[Peggy] was vicious to [Mark]. She was so naïve about the whole thing. When I got the script and it said some awful things, I couldn't believe it. It's the only time I've questioned the writers and said 'I can't believe it, people aren't like that today'. Then they sent me a survey and proved that people are actually like that. When it came to doing the scenes, I just got hold of Todd [Carty] and said, 'sorry this is Peggy!' I got the most appalling [hate] mail because of it. I had a very dear friend of mine who was dying of AIDS so it was very personal to me. The last scene I did I went straight out and got terribly drunk.<a href="#cite_note-transcript-16">[16]</a></blockquote> Actress and writer <a href="/wiki/Jacquetta_May" title="Jacquetta May">Jacquetta May</a>, who played the character <a href="/wiki/Rachel_Kominski" class="mw-redirect" title="Rachel Kominski">Rachel Kominski</a> between 1991 and 1993, has discussed the storyline and the role of women in an article about EastEnders. According to May, the scriptwriters were faced with a problem once Peggy, "a key figure of the community", was shown to exhibit such "pig-headed ignorance and appalling prejudice". In order for Peggy to be redeemed, she had to be seen to be punished, and so the character was given breast-cancer later that year. May comments, "Peggy, malicious gossip and bigot, herself becomes the victim of a life-threatening illness. At Christmas they run a Christian forgiveness story. Peggy calls on Mark and tells him she now knows what it is like to suffer as he has. She apologises, thus underlining one of the basic tenets of the programme: underneath the skin we are all the same, human and vulnerable, and recognition of this should unite us not divide us. Along the way, a great deal of useful information about these illnesses was broadcast. So, although EastEnders endlessly repeats its conservative format, and although all issues are there primarily to feed the great hungry story-beast, its positive by-products cannot be denied."<a href="#cite_note-kominski-72">[72]</a> EastEnders has received praise for the handling of Peggy's breast cancer storyline, as she was a rare media portrayal of an older matriarchal woman with the disease. Older women are at higher risk of being diagnosed; however, in 2001, it was reported that media representation of breast cancer is skewed towards younger women in their 20s or 30s, as they are seen as "more tragic" or "more sexy" in media terms. A 2000 study by Kitzinger and Henderson showed that 94% of newspaper coverage on non-celebrity women with breast cancer was on those aged under 50.<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> Source organisations working with EastEnders on the storyline have commented: "[The team] decided it was going to be [Peggy] and very rightly so. Bang on, the right age [...] perfect dramatic licence in terms of her sons that she was going to have to share this terrible news with, and how would she share it? Every female would have that problem. How would you tell your children? And they followed that with her. She was exactly the right person."<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> The storyline also received media criticism, for the use of a breast care nurse, who was used to counsel Peggy and translate medical terminology into lay terms for viewers; a character who could provide both a dramatic and educational purpose. However, not all oncology units in the UK offer breast care nurses, and the character presented "particularly positive messages" concerning patient choice and control over treatment options. Because of this, the UK press dubbed the storyline "didactic".<a href="#cite_note-social-19">[19]</a> The storyline was also criticised because Peggy received her cancer test results after six days, which prompted cancer charities to warn that not all patients would receive the same treatment.<a href="#cite_note-73">[73]</a> In December 2008, <a href="/wiki/Bupa" title="Bupa">Bupa</a> doctors criticised UK soaps for presenting unhealthy <a href="/wiki/Role_model" title="Role model">role models</a> to viewing audiences.
