Sharon’s hardly an old mum, but even she struggled to find common ground with Denny as the two week holiday yawned before them.
In an attempt to impress the teenager, Sharon suggested a day out at famous London landmark Madame Tussauds.
So far, so good – until she mentioned making a special trip to see the waxwork models of Denny’s favourite music artists Stormzy and Sketchy.

Except we’re pretty sure she meant Stormzy and Skepta! Awks!
Viewers were left in hysterics at Sharon’s faux pas, with many flocking to Twitter to laugh at her expense.
One simply posted several laughing emoji’s, alongside the message: “As if Sharon just called Skepta ‘sketchy’.”

Another laughed: “Sharon called Skepta ‘Sketchy’. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL – EastEnders moving loco.”
A third, however, refused to see the funny side, typing: “@Sharon_EE_x do not ever, and I mean EVER disrespect the @Skepta and call him ‘sketchy’ – that can’t run #EastEnders.”
In the same episode (Tuesday 09 April), Sharon was hailed the “Queen of Walford” after she confronted a drug dealer in an attempt to protect her son from a gang.
She stormed out into the Square to find gang member Stix, who had been threatening her son.
In a moment hailed as “iconic”, Sharon then punched the drug dealer square in the face, knocking him to the ground and leaving him with a bloody nose.
As viewers rejoiced at the return of badass Sharon, some however were concerned about the consequences of her actions…
