Barbara WindsorBarbara WindsorExpect Peggy Mitchell to be absent from the Queen Vic for a bit.

Because Barbara Windsor has suffered a breakage on the set of EastEnders.

The actress was filming the scenes for Pauline Fowler's funeral when she had a fall, stumbling down the steps of a BBC breakfast van.

Babs broke her wrist and sprained her ankle but, ever the professional, insisted on finishing the scenes before being taken off to hospital.

She's one brave lady.

A source told The Sun: "Babs had a bit of a fright. She's wearing a splint for the next two weeks.

"A surgeon will then decide if it has to go in plaster."

A spokesman for the BBC said: "Barbara is not filming at the moment and we wish her a speedy recovery."
