C'mon, Louie lives with Cindy. He will know all sorts of tricks. 😂

Him being the blackmailer isn’t really believable (mainly because of the way it was filmed) but it is more believable than Zack thinking Vicki is a irresistible siren. And more believable than the entire Jasmine storyline.

Ross Kemp was on the One Show this week talking about his return next week. I am a bit confused because Nigel is allegedly currently dying of pneumonia, but the location filming with Phil and Grant shows him running around on a beach looking very healthyConfused

Fingers crossed Grant has £100k in his back pocket for Mark.

Wait did Mark ask Phil for the money? And he said no? Then again Grant is his daddy. Wonder how much contact he’s had with Mark over the years! He’d get ripped to pieces on here (Grant). For being a deadbeat dad and prob not paying maintenance. Grant owes Mark £100K at least but will he pay it?!

I do like Cindy! Always have done. Dunno why. She’s likeable in some strange way despite her behaviour! Or maybe that’s me being too forgiving! 🤣😱

the80sweregreat · 18/04/2026 09:57

Ross Kemp on the one show yesterday said he had to pogo around at one point , so I bet your right 70s! It’ll be a flashback of some kind and Nigel is dreaming. The state he was in , I doubt he could face a long journey in a car or it isn’t a good idea anyway! Even if they kidnap him out of his room.

the80sweregreat · 18/04/2026 10:02

Even Louie didn’t look convinced that he was the blackmailer at one point. I hope it was only done for money for Jimmy and they don’t turn him into a Kray.
I also like Cindy , the actress was upset she was written out of it ages ago, so I do feel she always wanted back in and we have all lived with the ‘ dead, not dead’ storyline now it almost feels real. Same with Kathy too.
Cindy and max grow close again next week, but it probably won’t last.

Shellingbynight · 18/04/2026 10:09

@70isaLimitNotaTarget I like it! And you are probably right because as 80s said, Nigel does not look fit for running around on a beach!

I like the Cindy and Max pair up, they would never work as a couple but I like them sparring.

the80sweregreat · 18/04/2026 10:13

Loved the photo of Sam with her brothers I saw online. The new producer likes to reunite the oldies doesn’t he.
Grant came back last year and Phil wasn’t that friendly with him.

MyWildOliveGoose · 18/04/2026 10:18

Soooooo glad to have found this thread. I don’t have enough people to talk to about Eastenders and I absolutely love it so much 🥲 I’m a bit upset as to how far downhill it’s gone with the new producers and writers but I’m trying to trust the process.

My main irk is how they’re destroying characters that we’ve loved for so long, ruining their character development and making things not make sense due to that.

Glad Max is back, missed him so much.

They could get rid of Zoe, my son and my daughter like they did mini mo and Anthony. They just all annoy me lol I’ll try catch up with the full thread today.

Shellingbynight · 18/04/2026 10:20

80s at least there seems to be a point in reuniting the Mitchells for Nigel's death, there was really no point in bringing Chrissie back!

@MyWildOliveGoose I agree with all you've said!

the80sweregreat · 18/04/2026 10:23

I didn’t mind seeing Chrissie for the 40th in prison and with Jake , but the Christmas one was ridiculous and her singing in the pub and those big gloves ! It made little sense , but then the Jasmine storyline made little sense all round and was tedious.

Shellingbynight · 18/04/2026 10:32

Yes I agree, the first Chrissie return was okay, but we didn't need her back again with Jasmine which really made no sense!

Oh no not a Mitchell brother punch up?

Zippidydoodah · 18/04/2026 10:36

Oh yes, what happened to that bloody cat mini mo?

Totally agreed here. Think some actors are scared off returning eg Tanya. And I can see why. Can you imagine her rocking up to the square?! Max’s face!

It’s in one of George’s Ghanaian dishes! I’m calling it!

And Tyson? Chiahuahua? He could’ve got stolen and held to ransome. By Chrissy!?

Yes I agree, the first Chrissie return was okay, but we didn't need her back again with Jasmine which really made no sense!

My theory is that Jasmines original storyline was to do with Cindy, but then the new people took over, didn’t like it and decided to change it hoping none of us would bat an eyelid but we’re all a bit like “huh?”

Someone may have already said this, I need to read through the thread properly xx

Atleast this time there’s no chance of Grant and Sharon ending up in bed together again 🥲🤣

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 18/04/2026 10:44

Ahhh apparently Anna rehomed Tyson to a friend when she left. That’s relief!

That bloody cat Mini Mo, no one seems to know or care where it’s gone on the square. I care! 🤣

When is Sharon returning? Would be good if next week!

I didn’t like Eddie at all. Why is he back ? Can’t be good news.

Southeastdweller · 18/04/2026 14:31

Might be just to give Colin Salmon a story.

Nobody except the powers that be know when Sharon / Letitia Dean will be back, if she will be.

George's captive father Eddie is returning to the show:

https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/eastenders/eastenders-spoilers-return-revealed-vile-villain-new-story-george-knight-newsupdate/

Why on earth!? Is Eddie back. Hopefully to die. As for Sharon, I’d love for her to just come back and stay back but we can only assume it’s personal reasons for Leticia.

One thing I will say though.. of all the restaurants that restaurant has been, it’s the first one I’ve actually fancied trying 😅 they had me at “Kelewele” 😍 I love plantain and it sounds delicious!

Shellingbynight · 18/04/2026 14:34

At least it says it's a short stint.
I thought Eddie had died, but of course it was the wife that died.
