Christmas day drama for the Beale and Knight families in EastEnders

The Beeb have teased the Walford festive fallout for one Albert Square family…

Secrets and lies are set to throw a wrecking ball into the Beale family festivities this year as the shocking truth about Cindy is revealed in spectacular fashion on Christmas Day. Some incriminating evidence captured on tape will expose Cindy’s true love for ex-husband George and her scandalous affair with his son, Junior.

Cindy has nowhere to hide as all hell breaks loose in the Beale and Knight families, with fury and accusations flying on all sides.

But it’s not all going down for just one family in the square as across the square, Denise Fox will be getting an unexpected Christmas present courtesy of an unlikely gift-bearer and finds herself enjoying a very different day from the one she had last year. But, elsewhere as the yuletide warmth stokes up old feelings for some, for others, ghosts of Christmas past return…

Christmas 2023 saw ‘the six’ storyline unfold which had been previewed earlier in EastEnders in a ‘flashforward’ scene, the aftermath of these events – which saw the murder of Keanu – are still reverberating through Walford and some of its residents and those centrally involved – Sharon, Kathy, Stacey, Denise, Linda and Suki.

EastEnders airs on BBC One and can be seen on iPlayer
