Did Junior move the shovel ?
He was listening in to the conversation and then it's gone.

It's odd how they can all get late meetings and instant contact with the councillor

Oh, posted too soon and now seen it all
Junior has the shovel 🙄
Who is he protecting ? Or did he do it ?
..

Cindy will steal that gun I bet.

I agree with lots of the comments mentioned;
• not caring about any of them apart from Bianca and Phil
• the funny lines (this is what I want from ee)
• I don't believe Gina would sleep with Freddie either

I don't think Kojo did it as it's not believable but nothing seems believable with ee, so maybe it is Kojo.
Not sure why Junior took the shovel, he doesn't seem likely to be the attacker. Perhaps he took it to do his own investigations.
It would be good if it was someone we don't suspect but I can't see that happening

Not if we get there first!
Come on 80s, you game? 😉

Just remember 2103, always wanted to see inside Phil's magic self-replenishing safe!

I don't mind a root around Phil's safe and home ! lol
Might find another big stash of money as well as the gun and I might even tidy up for him too! lol
He is a misery , but what he said to Cindy made me laugh.
I still think that Junior is protecting someone , maybe Kojo ?
No idea though

Think junior might hand it in to prove his innocent to see his kid

I would guess Junior has taken the shovel because he thinks he'll be able to use it in some way that benefits him or disbenefits someonelse but I don't see how it would prove he was innocent.

The jewellery that Ruby hastily put in her bag when Stacey called in on her looked like the one that junior bought for Cindy !
Cindy kept it.

I thought that too! But then why would Ruby have it?!?

Did Cindy ever have ' a thing ' with Rubys dad ?
Maybe she has something against her if he did.

It looked a bit suspicious with that jewellery.
Not sure if it is Cindy's present , but how would she have got it ?

Oh. I just assumed it was a Billy Mitchell job lot from his Tat Emporium stall, just like the infamous cufflinks.

Oh, thought Roman was out of hospital and Ruby came out of McClunkeys at night. But I'm obviously wrong. Whoops.

It said 11.05 or something at Phil's when Cindy visited about the gun.
Martin and Stacey were coming out of the Albert at that time and so was Ruby with the food, so it was late. Who had Roman ?
Ruby was ringing Martin up, so maybe she thought he was home ?

Maybe Ruby will plant the bracelet (or whatever it was ) on Stacey and accuse her of stealing it ? She has seen them together now and likes a spot of revenge

If only G had disposed of the shovel in the river as he was going to do.

Roman is out of the hospital, he’s just in the kiddie cupboard with all the other Eastenders children!

I thought the bracelet was something Ruby had saved that she was considering pawning or selling, I didn’t even remember that it looked like Cindy’s. Maybe Cindy’s attacker robbed her then? But I thought she said she was sending the bracelet to Cindy junior.

Cindy said the diamond bracelet was for Cindy junior , but Ian suggested she kept it for herself.
Junior had bought it for het for Christmas and she had to come up with a story to cover her tracks after Ian found it in her coat.

That's what I thought after my initial reaction that it looked like Cindy's bracelet!

EastEnders needs to stop being like cludeo.

It was Freddie in the Beale's lounge with the vacuum cleaner.

Nope it was Sonia in the Vic toilets with the whiskey measure.

And then stringing it out for weeks.

With the Lucy Beale story , the writers were trying to be like the series ' Broadchurch' with all the different red herrings and who was where that night and so on and this feels similar.
I was quite invested in that particular storyline and even felt sorry for Ian , but with this I don't care who did it. They all had the same motive really , just to hurt Cindy because she had upset everyone and she was vile to her girls.

As Kathy said, everyone's got a motive!

I thought it was a really good well written episode, some great lines.

I don't believe Phil would be that careless with the safe code though.

Roman can't be out of hospital - who is looking after him? We never see Ruby with him, she's always wandering around alone. At least Stacey's kids have Nanny Jean or Mo.

Martin doesn't come out of his current storylines very well. He is constantly being bailed out or outwitted by a series of women 😆

The bracelet did look like Cindy's. I can't see any connection with Ruby though. I suppose it could have been lost in the square after her attack.
