EastEnders is bringing chaos back to Christmas this year. The BBC trailer makes one thing clear. Nothing will go to plan in Walford.
Zoe Slater is excited at first. She believes she is finally getting a proper family Christmas. It is her first one in years. But the happiness does not last. Zoe has been living in fear since returning to the Square in June. Someone has been stalking her. Someone watching her. Someone trying to drive her away.
Christmas Day is when the truth comes out.
Michelle Ryan dropped a big hint about what is coming. During a Q and A, she revealed there will be no Christmas dinner for the Slaters. No festive meal. No sitting around the table. It all falls apart.
The Slaters were meant to host a big community dinner at The Vic. That plan also looks doomed. Food is the least of their worries. The episode promises consequences for everyone. Old mistakes come back. Past ghosts return. Present villains strike. The future looks dark.
Kat stays close to Zoe. She is protective. Fierce. Zoe, meanwhile, is focused on one thing. Finding her long lost son. But the mystery tormentor will not stop. As Zoe searches for answers, secrets start spilling out. Kat’s love as a mother is pushed to the limit.
And that is not all.
Another major shock is on the way. Max Branning is about to meet Cindy Beale for the first time. The meeting is explosive. Cindy knows the truth. She knows Max was responsible for her son Steven’s death. At the time, she was in witness protection. Now the past is catching up.
Max’s story does not end there. He will be at the center of a special New Year’s Day episode. The episode jumps forward to 2027.
Something terrible happens.
A preview image shows Max in a suit. There is blood on the buttonhole. The future looks bleak.
As always, Christmas in Walford brings heartbreak. And this year looks no different.
