Cindy Beale’s explosive return to Walford revealed in full in EastEnders
ALL hell is breaking loose next week as Cindy Beale makes her way back to Walford for her son Peter.
Family bombshells are dropped left, right and centre next week in EastEnders. How will she react when faced with her daughters?
Michelle Collins has reprised her role as the iconic BBC One villainess and finally comes back to Walford in scenes due on our screens next week.
Presumed dead after being thrown into the witness protection scheme, she tries her best to avoid those who knew her from her past – but she still manages to cause chaos around her.
Coming up, Cindy meets her son Peter Beale (Thomas Law) who came back to the Square himself in recent scenes of the London-based program.
Peter takes a call from Ian (Adam Woodyatt) who demands he get his mum back to France, but whilst his back is turned, Cindy heads to Albert Square in search of Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth).
Cindy tries to avoid people from her past during her search and with no luck in the café, she heads to No.45 to face the music.
It’s not long before all hell breaks loose between the women and, later, Ian arrives himself, desperate to get Cindy away.
However, she is stopped in her tracks by George Knight (Colin Salmon), who has just exited The Vic.
George is stunned to see Cindy, but he soon hardens to learn she had no knowledge that he or the girls were in the Square, and she didn’t return for them.
Cindy questions George on their daughters’ whereabouts but he lies and insists they are both in Spain.
Wanting to protect Gina and Anna (respectively played by Francesca Henry and Molly Rainford), George takes Cindy to the barrel store and demands answers.
Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) then interrupts their clandestine chat and implores George for his selfishness considering all the hard work Elaine Peacock has put in for Anna’s party.
Realising her daughters are inches away, Cindy rushes into the bar and comes face to face with Anna and Gina as well as the residents of Walford.
The fallout of Cindy and Ian’s return sends shockwaves through Walford.
Upstairs in The Vic, Cindy desperately tries to explain herself to Gina and Anna – but how will they respond?
While this remains to be seen, the pair of sisters head to Peggy’s after the showdown but things quickly get out of hand.
