EastEnders is about to make Christmas even more dramatic this year, with not one, but two special episodes airing this festive season. But, it’s not just the double dose of drama that’s reeling us in. Viewers know that Cindy Beale’s sneaky secret affair and her whole chaotic love life will come to light in front of everyone. And it sure is going to be more dramatic than ever. So, let’s dive into the details!
EastEnders Will Air Double Trouble This Festive Season
Christmas Day on EastEnders is shaping up to be explosive. The BBC programme has confirmed that there will be two episodes airing this festive day, as Cindy Beale’s dark secrets get exposed. According to sources, the Christmas episode will be split into two parts, so it looks like we’ll be visiting Walford twice on December 25. The first half-hour instalment will air at 7:30 p.m., and the second half can be seen at 10:30 p.m.
In recent years, the BBC soap has aired an hour-long special on Christmas. But this time, it is reverting to a two-episode format. EastEnders last scheduled two episodes in 2008, almost 16 years ago. And, we are excited to witness it again. There are rumors about a major cliffhanger between the two instalments. The storyline will revolve around Cindy Beale’s secret and its effect on residents.
Regular viewers know that Cindy has gone to great lengths this year to keep her affair with Junior a secret. Along with that, she is currently engaged to Ian and is secretly in love with her ex-husband and Junior’s father, George Knight. OMG! Doesn’t this woman get tired? All of this will come to light through Freddie’s birdwatching microphone. It looks like this incriminating audio will gain attention and a huge row will ensue.
