Nish Panesar’s (Navin Chowdhry) arrest for Keanu Taylor’s (Danny Walters) murder was the talk of Albert Square on Monday’s EastEnders.
But while all the locals gossiped – or in Kim Fox’s (Tameka Empson) case, kept her social media followers up-to-date with the developments – there was an update on Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal) and Eve Unwin (Heather Peace).
Eve was last seen leaving Walford a few weeks ago, heading up to Yorkshire to be with her estranged mum, who dying NIsh had arranged to have attacked.
In the weeks since, Nish wormed his way back into the Panesar family after tricking Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) into revealing the secret The Six had been keeping about Keanu’s murder last Christmas.
Having used this to blackmail Suki into a reunion, their grandchildren were horrified to walk in on Nish attacking his ex-wife on Friday.
After Avani Nandra-Hart (Aalyiah James) pleaded with him to finally let Suki go and do the right thing by her, something seemed to change in him.
The Six were stunned when Nish was then arrested after deciding to take the fall for Keanu’s murder.
With The Six’s ordeal now seemingly over, it was revealed on Monday that Suki has fled the Square.
As Denise Fox (Diane Parish) worried about the impact Nish’s incarceration was having on Avani, Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) reminded her what was at stake, before revealing that Suki had since headed up to Yorkshire to be with Eve.
With Nish now out of the picture, will ‘Sukeve’ finally get their happy ever after?
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm on BBC One and from 6am on iPlayer.
