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.

This Tim is dodgy as anything isn’t he!
Maybe he’ll whisk Callum away from Johnny and become an abuser or something grim like that.
Callum is a needy. Or he is a Ben plant ! Out to get both of them and lose all their money.

Southeastdweller · 11/12/2025 19:32

Laura Doddington (Nic) has been a fabulous addition to the show.

No idea what’s going on with Tim. I need to buy a listings mag for the holiday period to find out the plot summaries and the Radio Times is my preferred publication, but it’s £6.80!

South, I bought ‘ what’s on tv’ double one today and it was 1.80.

the80sweregreat · 11/12/2025 19:56

I re watched ‘Muriel’s wedding ‘ the other day ( one of my favorite Aussie films) and she said that her fictional fiancé was ‘ Tim Sims ‘ !
This Tim in EE will be known as this by me from now on!
lol
Plus that was a storyline that seemed to run out of puff a while back, but seems to be back ..

gingercat02 · 11/12/2025 20:20

I hoped Nicola would be a good character right from the beginning. Eveyone goes a bit mushy at the first scan don't they? Dodgy start but George and Nic could be a great couple.
Sorry, don't get the Teddy love, and Barney and Harry are both annoying.
Blooming Billy, blabbermouth.
I really love Oscar, but worry about him when Max comes back.
Is Ian doing the dirty on Lauren?
Still hoping Jasmine isn't Zoes child

the80sweregreat · 11/12/2025 20:52

Oscar ends up in hospital, but looks as if he survives the big fire at Dot’s old place. I hope so anyway

Alucard55 · 11/12/2025 21:50

That was some punch from whispering Julie! I cannot stand Jonny sausage and I'm struggling to feel any sympathy for Sam.

foxlover47 · 11/12/2025 23:27

I am so fed up of harry , as much as Zoe and the stalking.
i agree about George and Nicola I reckon they could work!

StupidHappyClocks · 11/12/2025 23:42

How can they sack Jumpers when they’re keeping Whispering-Julie-the-worst-teaching-assistant-ever, drippy Ross, wooden Antknee and complete non-entities like Vinnie?

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2025 07:17

It is sad that Teddy has left, but it’s hard to know what happened and could just be a lot of speculation around him being fired. I haven’t seen anything on line about the actor, but you often get so many different news items that you see online it’s hard to tell the truth from the made up ones!

Shellingbynight · 12/12/2025 08:36

I think Julie is a teacher, not a TA (unbelievable as that is!) I think she'll leave when the Nigel storyline is done, at least I hope so.

I am not bothered about Teddy going as they never knew what to do with him. At least he is released from the purgatory of going round in endless storyline circles like the rest of the cast.

I don't like George and Nicola together at all. I know the producer is trying to redeem her but Harry and Teddy have given reminded us of her past misdeeds. As Harry said she has no soul, and she will definitely shred George into tiny pieces.

@Southeastdweller no need to buy Radiotimes, Xmas and NY plot summaries all online
https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/eastenders/eastenders-christmas-new-year-spoilers-slater-branning-secrets-implode/

Thanks for that link ,
It says Barney notices Zac has feelings for Vicki ...
Really ...I was hoping they would let that die a death ..Zac would not go for Vicki at all, ..she needs to leave ..now joel is not in it ,there is no need for her and Joel's dad to stay around

Shellingbynight · 12/12/2025 09:31

@Yellowsunbeam yes so was I, I don't believe Zack would be interested in Vicki and I really don't need more Vicky storylines! It is a shame but her return has been as much of a dud as Zoe's.

Southeastdweller · 12/12/2025 09:39

I was thinking about getting a newspaper this weekend with the two week listings as I like highlighting the shows I want to watch, but it’s handy to digitally have the summaries here to refer to so thanks for posting @Shellingbynight 😊

The Christmas Day episodes have never been available before that morning on iPlayer but here’s hoping this year will be different as I’m working that evening.

No way on earth Zac would be interested in Vicki. Ridiculous.

Alucard55 · 12/12/2025 09:50

I don't get why Jumpers told Nicola how much he loved har as he was being arrested then he's telling Billy that she's poison.

NowNumber5 · 12/12/2025 10:14

Oh no, please don't reprise the Zicky storyline 😱

@Alucard55 I think like a lot of couples on EE and RL , they have a love-hate relationship!

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2025 10:21

The writers have made Nicola more sympathetic though. George isn’t a pushover , so it may work out.
Although a leopard never changes it’s spots I suppose
I am still surprised she didn’t want an abortion.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 12/12/2025 12:26

If Sam reports Julie for assault she'd be out of her teaching job ! , She's probably still in her probationary period ,
Though there would be no witnesses and no CCTV.
Where was Phil standing with a gates and the entry buzzer ? Were those the the back of the nice flats by the station?

Billy looked right at home in that cell after Jumpers was lead put , he's been in a few of them over the years Wink

When Teddy said by the time he got out Barney would be 40 , was he thinking "Harry will be brown bread ? "

Shellingbynight · 12/12/2025 12:39

Yeh Harry doesn't have longevity written all over him does he 😄

I didn't find Nicola very sympathetic yesterday 80s! Screaming at Barney and trying to drag him home. She only thinks of herself, always. I think she'll run rings round George.

Meredusoleil · 12/12/2025 12:44

Phil was standing with Julie when she punched Sam, so he was a witness.

Also, how did Billy know Nicola was pregnant? Honey must have told him.

I too am surprised Nicola wants to keep this baby given she is on the brink of losing both her other sons 😐

It's almost like a rehashing of Suki's (as yet) unfulfilled desire to have another go and do a better job of child rearing than she has done so far!

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2025 13:05

I didn’t word it very well, but I what I meant is the writers are trying to make Nicola softer and us more sympathetic towards her. I agree that she wasn’t great with Barney though
Teddy probably is correct, but she might be different with George ? Although it’s hard to say

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 12/12/2025 13:52

Phil was standing with Julie when she punched Sam, so he was a witness

Even though Phil has no love for Julie I don't think he'd back Sam up if she tried to press charges against her .
"You must've tripped , Sam"

Phil is no grass !
