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.

It’s a pity Julie won’t stay as I quite like her now.

I remember Julie but not her son, just looked on IMDb and Jon Lee was in 20 episodes.

Must admit that I’m not a fan of Sharon, never have been.

I’ve never liked Sharon that much either. Don't miss her!

Julie's Josh lives in China. Would be a very unlikely move for her to go and live there with him but this is EE where people move to the other side of the world at the drop of a hat so... Did anyone call Claire when Nigel was dying? Didn't really hear her mentioned at all.

Why was Alfie blaming Ross, Howie and Harvey for the fact the Vic is struggling and completely empty?? They are just 3 men sitting around a shed and hardly the most lucrative clientele😂

Bea's video was very funny. I'm surprised she was able to put that together.

Grant will shag Linda and then hop back to Portugal.

One minute Nicola is obsessively watching over Ivy and worried about germs, the next she has hot-footed it to the hospital (full of germs) to confront Eddie lol.

Edited

They'll move to the other side of the world withno cash, visa or planning, but think Southend might as well be on the moon.

Wonder what this 'group' business is 👀👀

Just joined on mn

murasaki · 04/05/2026 14:37

I wondered that too.

Shellingbynight · 04/05/2026 14:47

They've made various grouped threads, this one is all EE spoiler threads. It makes it easier to find the past ones but it wasn't particularly hard in the first place, so... no idea!

Haha so true. Someone will move to Essex (Ongar and Southend seem to be popular choices) and everyone behaves as if they are literally going to other side of the planet.

Meanwhile someone else decides to go and live in South America, packs a duffle bag in 10 minutes and shuffles off with their entire family as if they are just moving down the road (looking at you Stacey).

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 15:01

They could have sent Stacey over to Spain. At least Jean could have visited with a cheap fight out to Alicante , but going to Brazil last minute was madness!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 04/05/2026 15:02

That last minute trip to Brazil would've cost thousands for them all

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 15:10

To be fair, Sean pushed Brazil and ( I assume ) he paid for it all? He was doing well wasn’t he, running a bar.

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 15:10

It was a ridiculous far fetched exit though

Shellingbynight · 04/05/2026 15:50

It was ridiculous, and so hurried. No one even mentions her now!

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 16:14

Jean went through a stage of mentioning Stacey occasionally when she was annoyed at Jasmine once and wanted to send her a carnival outfit in the post !
She hasn’t been talked about since, not even at Christmas.
Did Lily and Charli move back with Jean ?
They must have done as they were not seen queuing for the toilet last week as far as I recall !

But you can’t go to live in Brazil with 3 children on one way tickets at the drop of a hat without appropriate visas (which take months) and proof of your own funds to support yourself. Stacey wouldn’t have had that as she was permanently broke. The whole thing was completely bonkers.

TurquoiseDreamCatcher · 04/05/2026 17:55

@Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain I think you’ve called it, Grant getting Linda pregnant. I got the feeling that Max wasn’t romantically involved with New Year pregnant woman, but I totally see him sharing a bed with Linda in a none sexual way.

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 18:15

Yep, the Brazil thing was bad. They don’t seem to research these moves much !!

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 18:51

I know it was horrible, but the little film of E ‘ laine did make me smile today ! It did look realistic. I suppose it’ll be on everyone’s phone soon and Ian will feel bad.

Oh yes, and the voiceover said something about sleaze and Max walked out 🤣.

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 19:27

Oh yes! The sleaze clip was funny. It was well done

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 19:31

Felt sad for Julie, but overall it wasn’t a bad episode today. Not sure why Johnny can’t use the money for his business though and I think Nicola may start to suffer with PND. Once she’s sorted out George’s dad.
I don’t think that Knight Fusion will stay open long by the sounds of it. He owes Nicola 10k as well.

Eastie77Returns · 04/05/2026 20:03

I completely forgot Johnny was in today’s episode. So after going through all that drama to get Tim’s money, it is just gathering dust in his account because he ‘can’t spend it’. Pointless end to a pointless storyline.

Linda surely can’t have another baby. She must be about 53-54 now?? I liked her comment to Max and Cindy that their fling will be over before today’s milk gets old or something like that😂

I’m assuming Nicola’s family will appear soon since she was going on and on about her parents and sister Gemma. Normally invisible siblings are only mentioned like that by name if they are due to make an entrance. Baby Ivy is cute!

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 20:10

Yep, Gemma will probably show up for a visit and be a pain as Nicola may be struggling a bit with it all.
Probably even the mum , who sounds a bit of a dragon. I can’t see them being the supportive happy sort somehow. Probably bring up jumpers and be a bit off with George as well. Although I’ve not heard about any new characters.

Linda and Nicola are similar age.. if Nicola has just had a baby, Linda definitely could. However they’ve already done a “geriatric” storyline with her when she had Ollie. I put quotation marks because I absolutely hate that word but due to exhaustion can’t think of a better one. X

the80sweregreat · 04/05/2026 20:30

I also feel that the geriatric tag they use for older mums should be dropped. Many women are having children later in life now and it sounds demeaning.
Surely it could be dropped?

mumofoneAloneandwell · 04/05/2026 20:31

It feels like the person who came up with that term was being a dick and it caught on
