Scheming Sam Mitchell Is Back

Scheming Sam seems to have returned for one reason and one reason alone – money; however, it quickly becomes clear that she also has a legitimate health issue. The question remains, can she convince her family that she has truly changed?

 

 

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – but not for the EastEnders. Two weeks of festive fun for us viewers will see secrets explode throughout several households, culminating in a large police presence swarming Albert Square.

Both the Slaters and the Brannings have a particularly eventful time, while Nigel Bates’s (Paul Bradley) cognitive health declines… and he is visited by ghosts of Christmas past.
