EastEnders: the SPOILERS thread!

[Southeastdweller]

Welcome to the EE spoilers thread, where we post and talk about any EE spoilers we've read about, including those in early release episodes on iPlayer.

Link below to watch episodes on iPlayer - these are usually dropped at 6am on broadcast days - and you can also read brief synopses of upcoming episodes:

I'm not sure what Anna's mugging was about, other than to bring George and Cindy together. Cindy is such a manipulator, you could see she was hoping for days of meet ups with George about Anna, what a disappointment that Anna shortcuited it.

I suppose Cindy might shag Junior out of disappointment that George has rejected her (although I think George could be persuaded with a bit more time). Then she will have burned her boats with George, Ian, her girls...

I've seen it suggested elsewhere that Maya is the wife of the taxi driver who was beaten up by Harvey's son (I had forgotten Harvey's racist son Aaron).

Oh maybe !I can't remember his name either the actors name is Charlie and I can't get that out my head.

Ah Aaron I would never have remembered that!

I suppose Cindy might shag Junior out of disappointment that George has rejected her (although I think George could be persuaded with a bit more time). Then she will have burned her boats with George, Ian, her girls

They shagged in today’s episode. I wonder if Michelle Collins is only on contract for a year - surely it’ll come out soon and as you say, nobody will want anything to do with Cindy.

Aaron the racist ! Oh yes.
He was a member of a fake ' BNP ' type party

I wonder if Aaron was a football hooligan the Bnp types usually are and there has been something happened at the football .

God she gets about doesn't she? And she had the cheek to have a go at Lauren.

EE never fails to surprise me (or not). It’s showing here that a leopard (Cindy) can never change its spots even if she does get a new identity!

It’s a bit of a cheap shot with EE to get storylines and viewers as they know Cindy is always good for drama.

Cindy is a total nightmare.
Junior doesn't really fancy her , his just doing this for leverage I think ( over dad)
I just kept thinking of all that eel juice everywhere ! Yuk

But how can he use that leverage, given he can't tell any one (unless he doesn't care about Monique and his son). If he tells anyone, or even tries to use it as leverage against Cindy, they can equally use it back against him. It sounds like a rubbish plan!

It is a bit rubbish. Junior can blackmail Cindy by threatening to tell his dad, Elaine, Ian or anyone else but as he’s complicit in it and was actually leading Cindy on more, than he looks bad too.

@Shellingbynight I’ve seen online the same story about Maya being the wife of the Muslim taxi driver who Aaron beat up. Why would you leave it until now to seek revenge and Harvey isn’t racist like his son so can’t work out what she’ll do there! If she’s a proper observing Muslim she wouldn’t be drinking alcohol either.

Maya’s left it until now to get revenge because her husband died last year, ages after the racist attack by Aaron.

Maya looks like she's trying to set Harvey up for stalking her, I guess she thinks he must have brought Aaron up to be racist.
Cindy shags someone she shouldn't, yawn! Good for George turning her down again

In real life, Harvey would give up trying to trace her now, but he probably will to return the hat and then she'll accuse him of stalking her I suppose.

Why did Harvey even need Tommy’s help to find Maya online, as if it required master hacking skills😂 All he had to do was type her name into Facebook or whatever to bring up her profile, which is what Tommy did?!

Cindy and Junior = gruesome. I wish Ian would grow a pair and gain some self respect. It’s a pathetic sight watching him grovel. Although I felt sorry for him when he said having Cindy around makes him feel closer to Lucy.

Why were Cindy and George drinking hard liquor in Phil’s house, surely he wouldn’t have alcohol hanging around.

RIGHT! Harvey would have Facebook and look himself he's hardly ancient and incapable of looking on Facebook.

Isn't the eastenders version facemates or something.

But I don’t understand how and why the revenge anyway? It’s Aaron’s dad not Aaron, what’s she actually going to do, attack Harvey?

EE loves these far fetched storylines though like Theo and Stacey.

But in EE land if you’re over 50 like Harvey is you don’t understand Facebook or social media or not how it works in some ways do you have to enlist a tween/teen to show you what to do.

Harvey hasn't got a profile himself , but you can message someone without one. He probably wasn't aware of this or how to find her without help. Tommy was smart asking for food in return. She seemed a bit off with him in the bar , maybe this is part of her act to get him into trouble? Not sure how , but leaving the hat behind seemed staged too.

I am going to stop watching EastEnders a load of bs going on Cindy shagging Junior her daughter's step brother 🤢

Daughter's half brother.

But also her ex (husband?)'s son 😯

I really don't know what Junior is playing at tbh. I wish Monique would find out what a lying cheating scumbag he is and get well away from him with Xavier!

Monique seems nice ! I hope someone finds out what's been going on and tells her !
Junior has only been in it a few weeks and already slept with Bianca and now Cindy :(
His just horrible.

If Maya’s husband died last year then Aaron must have attacked him prior to that as he has been in prison for a while. Perhaps the husband was attacked and in a coma before dying. I think her ethnicity is relevant (signposted by Harvey clearly telling Tommy her surname is Hussein) so I think the Aaron link is correct.

Maybe there will be a twist and she ends up falling for Harvey instead. Or Detective Jean works out she’s dodgy but he won’t listen “you’re just jealous..” etc.

I don't think Mayas husband would have died from an attack by Aaron. Surely then his sentence could be changed and he'd have a case to answer for manslaughter, increased from GBH

But perhaps the husband never fully emotionally recovered from an attack by Aaron and the gang and took his own life or it impacted him in some other way

I think you are all defo right though that it smells of a revenge plot somehow!
