There’s a busy week ahead in EastEnders as we get closer to finally finding out who attacked Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) on Christmas Day.
As new pictures show, the finger is pointed at Gina Knight (Francesca Henry) next week, after the weapon was found in the Queen Vic barrel store.
Not only that, but Junior Knight (Micah Balfour) is set to expose a shocking secret about his younger sister that leaves her reeling…
As accusations fly and Gina is forced to explain herself, Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) urges Cindy to go to the police, but she would prefer to handle things in her own way.
Elsewhere, it becomes clear that Ruby Allen’s (Louisa Lytton) blackmail of Councillor Barker has made things 100 times worse for Martin Fowler (James Bye).
While the locals celebrate saving the market, Martin is called to his stall, where he learns that it is being shut down after a supposed health and safety violation.
Of course, this causes tension between Martin and Ruby, and he is left even more upset by Ian’s indifference to their family’s legacy.
In his time of need, Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) is on hand to comfort him, and soon a warm moment between them results in a near kiss! When Ruby sees everything, what will she do?
Elsewhere, Yolande Trueman (Angela Wynter) tries to get Nigel Bates (Paul Bradley) to open up to Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) about his dementia diagnosis, and Nigel panics when a woman asks him out.
It’s another chaotic week for Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) as well, as he clashes with son Nugget (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury) over Nish’s ashes.
It certainly doesn’t help that his mind is occupied by Denise Fox (Diane Parish), who wants him to find somewhere decent where they can spend time together.
And wedding bells are ringing as Honey and Billy Mitchell (Emma Barton and Perry Fenwick) plan their upcoming nuptials, though things take a worrying turn when Honey realises that Billy has made a costly mistake.
