Nish’s ‘revenge’

Nish Panesar will target his ex-wife Suki Panesar and her partner Eve Unwin once again next week. After continuously trying to split the pair up, this week’s episodes saw him orchestrate the arrival of a blast from the past to try and cause drama. But he’s not done yet, and next week he has another move up his sleeve.

Ayesha debuted on the soap in a recent episode, with Suki confirming she was an old friend who she secretly had feelings for. Viewers know that Ayesha is the wife of the man Nish murdered 20 years ago, after he wrongly believed Suki was having an affair with him.

Only recently did Suki confess it was his wife that she wanted to be around, and in a recent episode Suki discovered Ayesha had felt the same way. Knowing how Suki felt about their old friend, Nish invited Ayesha to Walford claiming he wanted to make amends before his death, following him being diagnosed with a terminal illness

Next week will see Nish continue to target the couple using Ayesha to do so. It’s not clear what exactly he has planned and whether Ayesha will go along with it, but spoilers have revealed he makes a desperate attempt to upset Eve and Suki. Nish makes Ayesha a tempting offer that could cause more drama for the pair – but will she accept?

Linda faces death

EastEnders have teased some shock scenes for Linda Carter next week when she finds herself rushed to hospital. Linda – played by Kellie Bright – has been front and centre of the BBC soap for the last few months after she was revealed as the Christmas killer. She killed Keanu Taylor after he attacked Sharon Watts on their wedding day, and has since been living with the guilt of what happened. Dean Wicks was framed for Keanu’s murder – but Linda will have to go on the stand to confirm she ‘saw’ Dean after giving a false statement to police to cement him being guilty of the crime.

Next week on the BBC soap, Linda continues drinking all night – with Johnny at a loss of how he can help her through. Johnny heads out, assured that Gina will look after Linda – but when he returns, he is left fuming and he has a massive row with Linda.

He heads back out but when he comes back home, he finds Linda in a life-threatening situation. What’s happened to her? The paramedics rush into the Queen Vic to treat Linda, and she’s rushed to hospital – but what has happened?

Bobby exit ‘sealed’

EastEnders could tease how Bobby Beale leaves the BBC soap in scenes that air next week, with a possible betrayal on the way. Amid an epic return to the show recently for one fan favourite linked to Bobby, the character could end up facing heartbreak. There may be sad scenes on the way amid his romance with Anna Knight, months on from an initial betrayal.

Amid predictions from fans that Bobby will leave to live with stepmother Jane Beale following her comeback, spoilers hint that Bobby’s romance with Anna will be short-lived. It seems she has feelings for Freddie Slater, with him feeling the same way.

But neither have admitted this and instead bury their feelings, not wanting to hurt Bobby after their fling months ago. Freddie feels the need to step aside and keep a distance to stop anymore drama. But given that Bobby is leaving the BBC soap in the coming weeks or months, could this confirm heartache ahead?

Affair drama

Junior Knight and Cindy Beale could find their affair ‘rumbled’ after a big mistake next week. Soap fans will recall that Junior and Cindy started a shock affair last month. Cindy was previously in a relationship with Junior’s dad George Knight years ago and she is now with ex-husband Ian Beale while having her shock affair.

In spoilers for next week, Peter Beale is annoyed that Bobby Beale was promoted to manager at Beale’s Eels, not him and Lauren Branning reasons that there must be another reason Cindy did this as she wouldn’t do Bobby a favour without motive. Thinking of possible scenarios, Peter wrongly assumes it’s down to their family dramas.

It’s not long until Junior overhears Peter, Lauren and Gina speculating about Cindy to which he offers Peter a job on his new contract to keep him out of their way. However, Cindy is incensed to discover Peter is going to work for Junior and offers him the manager’s job at Beale’s Eels, ready to demote Bobby. Yet Cindy’s plan backfires and instead she orders Junior not to hire Peter but he refuses to rescind his job offer.

Later in the week, Junior tempts Cindy to a late-night glass of wine at his place to which she gets all glammed up and makes her excuses to head over there. However, in the meantime, Gina arrives at Junior’s door and asks to move in. Junior is thrown by the request and is panicking that Cindy will turn up so upsets Gina by rejecting her in order to get her away quick. Will this decision lead to consequences and could Lauren rumble their affair?

EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
