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

I hope it's not Linda, but looks like it could be.

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 09/10/2024 19:06

I’m trying to remember what I was reading or watching recently and it had someone in it where they thought they were dead and had a funeral but then the person came back. So I thought you could have a funeral without a body!

CorporaINobbyNobbs · 09/10/2024 19:07

oh it was Cast Away!

the80sweregreat · 09/10/2024 19:24

Might be a red herring and they are throwing people off the scent by filming this and getting it put on the socials !
Who knows ?

They covered that in a scene where David said to Bianca "why didn't you tell me?" And her response was "Why would I? You never ask about me or my family or what's going on." Therefore indicating that their relationship was very patchy and they rarely talked and that David just had a habit of popping up when he could be bothered and wasn't really interested in Bianca never mind gossip.

Ah I missed this as I realised I watched the episodes in the wrong order on iPlayer so skipped one.

I liked the way the camera panned to George, Junior and then David after Ian proposed. The quiet desperation in Cindy’s eyes when she looked at those 3 fine specimens and then…back to Ian😭

So Reiss packed up and went to ‘be near Sonia’ just like that. Where is going to stay when he apparently has no money. And in true EE style he took just one tiny bag with him.

Jack is truly vile to Penny and a pathetic human being. Cannot cook or deal with the basic housework. He has one child to look after! I can’t believe Denise seems to want to go back to being his doormat again.

Shellingbynight · 09/10/2024 20:06

I loved that episode, and I now love David, I hope he isn’t leaving today. He is so good in his scenes with Ian and Cindy.

I didn’t think Freddie could get any more annoying, but I was wrong. Expecting to have ‘quiet’ in a London square for birdwatching? He’s definitely going to overhear someone though isn’t he.

Jack telling Denise she is beautiful and ‘competent’. Yeh that says it all, he wants her to do all the family work so he doesn’t have to. Horrible specimen.

Bunionbabe · 09/10/2024 20:12

Is Denise pregnant? Or perhaps she's just got some new boobs. I can't see what all those men see in Cindy. She must have some hidden talents.

I'm not sure she keeps them too hidden....

Her inability to keep them hidden was today's duff duffer!

the80sweregreat · 09/10/2024 20:25

Cindy does have sex appeal . I can see why these men fall for her to be honest.
Ian has always been hopeless with women though. Jane adored him and that went south!
Fair play to Adam Woodyatt for playing him so well though. Most women wouldn't love him.
Like Frankie and her camera , Freddie n Anna might hear more than just birdsong eventually and it'll be played back in the Vic , somehow !
They like to recycle storylines.
( plus the idea of him and her wanting to listen to birdsong is very far fetched anyway)

Seems a lot of bother for them to bring back Lee and Nancy just for a red herring? But we’ll see in December!

True re Nancy and Lee ..
I'll miss L and her buns and flamingos
Be sad to see her go

FinneganFois · 09/10/2024 23:18

Oh my goodness, David Wicks clocking Cindy up an alley with Junior ! Classy !

In a recent episode, Ian Beale referred to David Wicks as " my brother", is David Wicks the son of Pat Butcher and Pete Beale?

Update, sorry I've just backtracked a few pages, the link has already been explained.

Southeastdweller · 10/10/2024 08:42

Oh my days, after 27 years Joe Wicks returned at the end of today's episode! David has gone back up north to be with him and his granddaughter. I thought that was a nice ending for David.

Cindy really went after Junior and told him they were ' exclusive ' etc, but now she seems to have forgotten this and not so keen! I guess most men would walk away ( she isn't exactly available and not going to lose Ian or his businesses or his money it seems)
She is a bit of nightmare .. always was

She really is! It’s almost like she wanted Junior to be her sex slave, available for her only and at her beck and call while she got to do anything she wanted, I felt sorry for him despite his own sleazy behaviour. Maybe it was a fitting reward for how he treated his own wife. I think Cindy just loves the attention!

Shellingbynight · 10/10/2024 08:46

And is that it for David's return? Very disappointing if so. I thought he'd be in it for a few weeks and actually do something, rather than a few exchanges with old timers.

Southeastdweller · 10/10/2024 08:53

Cindy said in today's episode she's only with Junior for sex, but he told her he has feelings for her. I just find Junior so unappealing in every way so can't feel invested at all with him, maybe it's the way the actor's playing him.

OP posts:
Viewer23 · 10/10/2024 09:02

Junior’s character is sleazy and unappealing but he is nice in other interactions with friends and family so I hope they give him some proper storylines that have nothing to do with affairs. Jack’s character is particularly unappealing, not just in his romantic relationships but generally, he’s such a bully and I don’t know what anyone sees in him!

Tommy’s behaviour is horrible, I hope Kat confides in Phil. I think I have said before on here about how ironic that he thinks he is trying to be Phil but Phil is against domestic violence because of how his dad used to abuse Peggy so maybe he can sort Tommy out?

Anotheremptynester · 10/10/2024 09:13

Theres so many old characters coming back, but I’m wondering where Bianca children are supposed to be? She only mentions Whitney but she was adopted. Where are they all?

RedToothBrush · 10/10/2024 09:43

David having to pick between his kids...

...and finally the importance of the ridiculous and unbelievable bird watching hobby of Freddie and Anna is revealled.

The extra sensitive microphone has picked up which parts of today's episode!?

Poor Anna.

I mean I do love that Eastenders thought that a love triangle was boring, so thought a love pentagon with Cindy, George, Junior, Ian and David was much more interesting!

Sharks are playfully dancing.

the80sweregreat · 10/10/2024 10:28

Who did Bianca have ( children wise):
Tiffany ( who is in Germany with Keegan Taylor)
Whitney ( adopted )
Morgan : he went to live with his mum, but not sure what happened to him since.
He is 16.
... ( Did we see him when they went to up to MK at the start of this year ?)
Bianca also had a baby that died ( Natasha) she had spina bifida :(

Southeastdweller · 10/10/2024 10:30

Isn’t Liam one of her brood as well?

OP posts:
Shellingbynight · 10/10/2024 10:32

We didn't see Morgan, Bianca said he was always at his girlfriend's house and she rarely saw him.

the80sweregreat · 10/10/2024 10:34

Oh yes, I forgot Liam.

the80sweregreat · 10/10/2024 10:39

Liam had a baby with Cindy junior , so Cindy is a grand mum to one of Bianca's broods offspring.

( thanks to wiki and fandom online for a lot of these old character back stories )
I've always watched EE , but I never realized that David wicks and Ian had the same dad. Or it didn't register much for some reason
I used to get David and Simon mixed up anyway at times ! lol

What a lovely surprise to see Joe!
