While Linda finds herself in a life-threatening situation
JOHNNY Carter makes shocking move on married Walford resident next week EastEnders.
It’s a hard week for Johnny (played by Charlie Suff) as he supports his mum, Linda Carter, who takes the stand against Dean Wicks.
Linda must give an eye witness account of how she saw Dean murder Keanu Taylor, Sharon’s husband who Linda killed to save her best friend’s life.
Linda framed Dean for Keanu’s murder with help from The Six and her lawyer son Johnny.
Stacey planted the weapon in his flat, but will the evidence stacked up against him be enough?
Recent scenes have seen Dean reach out to Linda convincing her into confess about lying in her statement, and then he will confess to raping her. But can Dean be trusted?
Linda is bombarded with more texts and letters threatening her to not take the stand – but who’s sending them?
It dawns on her that another Walford resident is out to find Keanu’s true killer and bring them to justice.
Linda’s drinking continues to get out of control and Johnny feels helpless. What will a drunk Linda say on the stand?
After the trail, Linda drinking gets worse, so Gina Knight offers to look after her.
Linda and Johnny have a massive row. But, when Johnny’s calmed down, he returns home to find Linda in a life-threatening situation.
The paramedics rush into The Queen Vic pub to treat Linda.
At the hospital, a devastated Johnny blames Gina for Linda’s plight and orders her to move out.
Callum provides Johnny with a shoulder to cry on, but he misinterprets the kindness and tries to kiss Callum.
Will Callum stay loyal to his husband Ben Mitchell?
Ben found himself hauled over to the US to face prison for charges of credit card fraud.
Ben Mitchell actor, Max Bowden, has spoken out on his controversial exit from the soap after admitting that the producers “were probably tired” of him.
Max spoke out to podcast host Lewis Nicholls on his YouTube show about the circumstances surrounding his departure.
Lewis asked the actor about The Sun’s report that the star was sacked from his role following a showdown with BBC bosses.
Refusing to confirm or deny, Max replied: “The important thing was my time was ready. I was very tired, and like I said, I wasn’t me, I wasn’t.
“The Max sat in front of you today was kind of a ghost, and they recognised that – I recognised that.
“I did nearly six hundred episodes in five years, which is a hell of a lot, and it was time for a rest.
“The character was tired, I was tired, they [the producers] were probably tired of me being tired.
“From an honest perspective, I think yeah, a lot of it was that I needed to go for a bit.
“I needed to go work on me, get myself back to a place of really good mental health, focus on healing and also be a dad.”
EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday on BBC One and iPlayer.
