EastEnders fans face a wild night as Ian’s sudden hit-and-run throws the entire Square into a massive panic. Young Jordan Fox ends up unconscious in the road, which brings the police straight to Walford.
Also, by the end of the hour, officers pull off a major arrest that changes everything for the Beale family. Keep scrolling to read the six big questions we need answered
Will Ian Be Punished For The Hit-And-Run?
The newly elected councillor’s world was shattered when police arrived at his doorstep to investigate structural damage to his vehicle. We also saw that a breathalyser test proved that he was driving over the legal limit. Hence, authorities immediately arrested him for driving under the influence and ‘failing’ to stop at a road accident.
Initially Ian tried to downplay his drinking. However, the horror dawned on him when he learnt that Jordan Fox was the victim. Elsewhere, Jack Branning warned him that his life is effectively ruined. So, a lengthy prison is now a very real and terrifying possibility.
Can Jordan Fox Survive The Spinal Surgery?
Over at the hospital, Chelsea received a brutal update from the medical team. The emergency scans revealed that her young son had suffered a catastrophic ‘spinal injury’. And so the doctors have recommended an urgent operation to remove damaged bone. They want to insert a metal plate to stabilise Jordan’s spine.
In fact, we can say that this echoes Penny Branning’s tragic past. Even she was left permanently paralysed after a hit-and-run incident during her own childhood. Hence, fans are terrified for Jordan’s future mobility.
How Long Before Howie Discovers His Ring Was Stolen?
Max Branning’s impulsive proposal will ignite a new neighbourhood feud. The branning matriarch shamelessly pocketed an engagement ring that Howie had hidden for Kim Fox. Instead of returning the lost jewellery, Max used it for himself after getting a pep talk from Linda Carter.
Meanwhile, a clueless Howie is searching the hospital corridors for the missing box. However, we know that it will not take much detective work to trace the ring back to Max.
EastEnders: Will Cindy Actually Accept Max’s Proposal?
Max has made a massive gamble regarding his romantic future. He dropped to one knee and proposed to Cindy right in the middle of the wedding venue. Elsewhere, we have already seen in the flashforward scenes that Max will walk down the aisle for the fifth time.
But for now, Cindy is left without an answer. In fact, to complicate things, those same future clips show him comforting a mysterious pregnant woman. However, she is definitely not his current fiance.
Will Denise Collapse Before Receiving Urgent Cancer Treatment?
Denise is fighting a lonely battle with acute myeloid leukaemia. In fact, for now she has shared this terrifying diagnosis only with Yolande Trueman. Later, her condition’s severity peaked when the doctor called the situation a medical emergency.
The doctor even ordered her back to the clinic for an immediate blood transfusion. But soon Jack Brannign called with the news of Jordan’s accident. That’s when the selfless grandmother immediately paused her own care. But will she get treated before everything collapses?
Can Lauren Say No To Mark In EastEnders?
The forbidden attraction between Lauren and Mark almost reached a point of no return. And it happened when the pair shared a charged moment and nearly kissed. However, Lauren ultimately pulled away to return to Peter Beale.
However, after a conversation with her father, she feels unsettled. When she hears her father’s toxic perspective on romance, Lauren is forced to confront her true feelings. Hence, it’s highly doubtful that she can stay away from Mark. For more EastEnders spoilers and updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
