Lola Pearce to be run over by Ronnie Mitchell in car crash

Lola Pearce will be left fighting for her life after being run over by Ronnie Mitchell, in an upcoming episode.

Lola, played by Danielle Harold, is rushed to hospital after Ronnie (Samantha Womack) accidentally knocks her down in the middle of Albert Square.
Ronnie drives off in a rage following a fight with her sister Roxy Mitchell (Rita Simons).

Fans will have to wait to find out if Lola survives the car crash.

Ronnie has always been fond of Lola and so will naturally be devastated about what happens.

This comes just a few weeks after Lola's baby daughter Lexi was snatched by Ronnie's enemies in the late Carl White's family, although Lola isn't aware of this.

Samantha Womack: 'Ronnie should be public enemy No 1!'

Samantha Womack has revealed she expected viewers to hate Ronnie Mitchell.

"With child abduction and murder on her record, she should be public enemy number one!" said Samantha, referring to Ronnie's prison time for taking Kat Moon's baby and her murder of Carl White.

"It's a weird thing - people forgive Ronnie for a lot more than they would other characters.

"Everyone has seen her trauma - with her daughter Danielle, and baby James and her dad Archie - so they're all kind of rooting for her. The audience tries to understand why she does what she does, and they're with her every step of the way. They always see her as a victim."

The actress is not sure if Ronnie can get away with murdering Carl.

"She's taken another human life so it's only a matter of time before that ticking time-bomb will go off!"
