EastEnders To Bring Explosive Drama On Christmas!
EastEnders star Michelle Collins has given viewers a sneak peek into the show’s ‘powerful’ Christmas scenes. We know the festive season is always big on soap operas, and some of the best storylines kick off during this time.

And now, it’s that time of the year again – the BBC show has rolled out a bombshell storyline once again.
Regular viewers know that Cindy is on the hot seat for having an affair with her ex-husband’s son, Junior Knight. This sneaky affair will come out soon, and it will damage several lives. We know that Cindy is engaged to Ian and she has been sleeping with Junior while being madly in love with George. Oh, god- this woman has no control on herself whatsoever. Fortunately, Cindy actress Michelle Collins also feels the same about her alter-ego.
