Cindy Beale will be joined by her long suffering ex Ian as she makes an explosive return to EastEnders, in a twist that has fans beside themselves with excitement and chomping at the it for what's in store.
While Cindy's 'back from the dead' comeback to EastEnders was ruined by a a national newspaper, much to the anger of fans, millions still tuned into BBC One on Wednesday night to see if the reports were indeed true. The storyline involving newcomer George Knight searching for Rose, the 'missing' mother of his two daughters, proved to be the catalyst for Cindy's return.
In the final scenes of the episode, George was see dialling Rose's number on his mobile, as Seal's Kiss From A Rose blasted from the Queen Vic jukebox. AS he failed to get an answer, the scene then cut to a woman glancing at her phone as she sat round a swimming pool and that woman turned out to be none other than Cindy, who was last seen on screen in 1997, before being killed off in an off screen death a year later.
