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.

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

Ravi is gorgeous, not normally my type, but he has soulful eyes.
I think that Dee will choose him over Jack and Jack.
Might be Ian behind ' USB gate'
There are a few suspects tbf.

Eastie77Returns · 24/12/2024 16:45

I don’t think she can choose Ravi. He’s a drug dealer and it would be the end of her and Chelsea. But I mean…in her shoes I totally would😂

the80sweregreat · 24/12/2024 17:23

We haven't seen much of Chelsea or her child recently!
She dabbled in drugs herself once , so maybe she could forgive Ravi if her mum decides to give in to temptation?.. they sometimes do on EE , or live with it at least ?

Agree that Elaine should tell George
He did kiss Cindy once , but it's obvious he isn't interested and it's E's insecurities that is making her do this ( because of her late husband too )
She must know Cindy can't just leave ( again )
Yolande is all wrong for Patrick. She needs to give her head a wobble tbh or lose him !
Kim did the choir thing last year I think ( or the year before ?) she needs a proper story line

Yes, Yolande is not well suited to playful Patrick. I have always though Patrick and Pat Butcher were a good match back in the day. Today his best fit would be Elaine or Kim if she was thirty years older (and not like a daughter to him of course).

Anyway ladies .. keep on 'spoiling away 'on this thread .. it's the big 40th next year
Be ready for lots of fun and games and it makes me feel old as I remember the first episodes back in 85 !
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄

NeighbourHitMyCar · 24/12/2024 19:10

I was pretty sure that when Elaine and Cindy were in the barrel store (where EVERYONE spills their secrets!) that they heard someone in the alley as Cindy went to check

I don't think it's Junior as Cindy never told him about how Elaine knew and I don't think he'd have just listened to the convo without jumping in

So my money is on Gina or Lauren. Lauren has the most to gain I guess!

I wondered if they'd sell the calendar for real for charity or something?

the80sweregreat · 24/12/2024 19:11

I'd buy the EE calendar ..

And thanks 80s as I think you started the first spoiler thread I spotted!

I have enjoyed playing detective with you all this year (I've been on most of the threads with a couple of name changes that I couldn't be arsed to fix!)-although I think sometimes we give the writers more credit than they deserve 😉

the80sweregreat · 24/12/2024 19:15

South does the house keeping , but I did start a spoiler thread ages ago and found all you lovely people.
It is fun, even if the actual soap can be infuriating and about as far fetched as you can get !!( especially Bianca , gawd bless her and her bucket of doom !!
🪣

Eastie77Returns · 24/12/2024 19:26

Poor Bianca! Can’t imagine how fetid and rank the lockup must smell by now. I hope Reiss has at least been feeding her properly.

I remember years ago Denise was missing for months and everyone thought she was dead (in her ‘last’ scene Lucas was seen throttling her), they even had a funeral in her absence. But then she reappeared and it turned out he had been keeping her prisoner.

Viewer23 · 24/12/2024 19:30

Eastie77Returns · 24/12/2024 15:51

Ravi looked lovely in the calendar. It was funny when the camera panned to both Denise and Chelsea ogling when his picture came up lol.

The choir was nice. I thought it a bit unrealistic that Clayton’s wife was cheerfully serving drinks in the community centre and seemed remarkably well on the day of her husband’s funeral (or was he already buried, I fast forward Yolande’s scenes so didn’t follow what happened with him). Although this is EE and people recover from life changing dramas remarkably quickly.

I’ve changed my mind re the USB and now think it is Ian. It’s suspicious that he’s agreed so easily to go to France. I think he knows…

That wasn’t Clayton’s wife in the community centre, it was the other member of the congregation - the one who bullied Yolande during the Bible study/prayer meeting! I can’t remember her name now. When the people were gossiping about Yolande and the pastor being close, before he assaulted her.

@Anyonecanfallinlove you make a good call, I hadn’t thought about the spiteful intent dimension. I wonder if it could be Anna.

Viewer23 · 24/12/2024 19:33

Gosh poor Bianca! I hope she turns up tomorrow! I must echo PPs and say it has been great discussing Eastenders with you all this year!

Oh yes you’re right! The wife is someone completely different. I think the she did meet up with Yolande in the community centre after Clayton died and I got confused. I can’t remember the prayer meeting bully’s name. I’ve got Agatha in my head for some reason but I don’t think that’s right.

Yes. Agatha is correct. Gideon Clayton's wife was called Stella.

Southeastdweller · 24/12/2024 20:29

I have also really enjoyed the discussions on here and god bless the BBC for still dropping the episodes on iPlayer at 6am on broadcast days. I would love to watch tomorrow's episodes in the morning but will have to wait like everyone else. I think I'd struggle a little if the 6am drops stop permanently!

@the80sweregreat

I've been watching EE for that long too since the first episode, tho missed out for a few years in my dd's childhood.

I think the scriptwriters have forgotten they put B in the lockup.

Thank you everyone for the ' spoiler ' threads, I read them all :) often they are better than the actual episodes.

Southeastdweller · 24/12/2024 21:19

Nigel’s in it for a while.

Who was Mr October - I saw the pumpkin but missed who the bloke was.

Ficklemind · 24/12/2024 23:04

Zack was Mr October, blink and you'll miss him.
Poor Phil, he could have been on the calendar posing with a pair of boxing gloves hiding his package 😄
I laughed at Junior telling George to grow up instead of giving him sympathy and Cindy's face after telling Junior she loved him to stop him from telling Elaine, I almost feel sorry for her.
Good to get the old Yolande back, she's found her faith again.
Thought Nigel looked a bit creepy! Is it a false beard to look Christmassy?

Ficklemind · 24/12/2024 23:11

Love reading this thread, I have no one else to chat about EE to so thank you Southeastdweller for keeping them going and to everyone for posting and lurking, have a Merry Christmas! 🌟🎄🎄🎄🌟

NowNumber5 · 25/12/2024 07:23

Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄 🎅 🎁

Thanks for all the laughs, goss and spoilers throughout the year.
I can't believe it has been a whole year since poor Keanu was done for by a meat thermometer.
Looking forward to tonight's episodes.

My gut feeling on the mystery birdsong recording gifter is still Kojo.
Second guess would be Junior.

Have a great day filled with good food and good 📺 😂

I think Nigel's beard is real. He just looked very old and rough to me. But then again, if he's supposedly homeless, that must be part of the look they are going for!

Southeastdweller · 25/12/2024 09:21

Happy Christmas all 🎄🌟
I won't get chance to watch tonight's first episode (7.30) until very late so I'll be back in the morning!

NeighbourHitMyCar · 25/12/2024 09:34

Merry Christmas one and all 🎄

I might not even get to watch this evenings episodes until tomorrow as have toddlers and with family who really aren't interested!

So my bet is Lauren was the secret usb giver but I think tonight's will be explosive 🧨

lazymum99 · 25/12/2024 09:53

Merry Christmas to fellow Eastenders fans 🎄
I would definitely buy one of those calendars if the BBC chooses to market it for charity!
