EastEnders kicks off its highly anticipated 40th anniversary in style this evening, as the build-up to Thursday night’s live episode begins.
The BBC One soap is marking 40 years on air with four explosive and must-see offerings this week so expect drama aplenty!
As Billy and Honey Mitchell (Perry Fenwick and Emma Barton) prepare to tie the knot, Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) tries to get through to struggling brother Phil (Steve McFadden).
Elsewhere, the mystery of the Walford Walloper draws close to its conclusion as Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) confronts the person she believes to be her attacker – but has she got the right person?
And ahead of the public vote opening on Wednesday night, Denise Fox (Diane Parish) finds herself even more conflicted as Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) and Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) ramp up their efforts to win her heart.
The drama snowballs, with the Queen Vic set to go up in smoke later in the week, endangering a number of mainstays.
It’s going to be an explosive week so, without further ado, let’s get the 40th birthday celebrations underway!
