Tracy is a recurring fictional character in the popular British soap opera EastEnders. She is played by Jane Slaughter. She is the longest-serving part-time character.
Tracy is a barmaid at The Queen Victoria pub, where she has worked since she joined. Her existence is largely to provide somebody to man the bar while one of the main characters resolves disputes, arguments or disagreements, or tends to the main plot of the episode.
Despite featuring on the television programme frequently, and occasionally having a line to say, her surname and any further details are unknown. She has also featured in a few minor storylines.
When Dennis Rickman first arrived in Albert Square, he had a one-night stand with Tracy. This was revealed when he returned her knickers to her over the bar in the pub.
She was seriously assaulted and locked in the bathroom of The Queen Vic by Sam Mitchell, shortly before Mitchell unearthed the body of Den Watts. Tracy awoke and escaped, alerting police. Sam later apologised to her, after Tracy showed fear of her.
Tracy also owns a flower stall on Bridge Street market. Her stall is regularly robbed by new characters who steal flowers for people they are meeting.
It has become a point of amusement amongst EastEnders fans, that so little is known about the character, and speculation is ongoing as to whether she will take a lead role in any future EastEnders storylines, however as of 2006 Tracy has been appearing a lot more.
Tracy is often seen to be pleased at the prospect of additional overtime in The Queen Victoria when a Mitchell family wedding or other event is planned.
