Rita is set to have a tragic accident at home this year while putting up fairy lights on her Christmas tree.
With most of her neighbours thinking she’s away for the holidays, it takes the street days to realise she’s in danger.

Speaking to Digital Spy, MacLeod said: “She’ll be okay physically but it will have slightly more far-reaching consequences in terms of her perception of her own life, her role in the world and her role on the Street.
“That will play out over the first couple of months of next year, culminating around February time. She will be physically okay, just to reassure you. I’m not going to expect you to tune in on Christmas Day and watch Rita’s demise. That’s not something I would ever do!”
