EastEnders fans are speculating that George Knight may be plotting something 'murderous' as he struggles to cope with his father Eddie living in his home. Eddie, who is dying of cancer, was released from prison to stay with George and his partner Nicola Mitchell, despite a ban on contact between Eddie and George.
In tonight's episode (18 May), George's daughter Gina argued with him over allowing Eddie to stay. She ultimately took drastic action by calling the police to report that Eddie was in contact with George, which is prohibited.
However, fans believe it may be George who takes the most final step. This comes after the BBC released a trailer for a week of special episodes titled 'The night that changes everything', where George is set to make a decision that turns everything on its head.
One fan said: 'I was confused as to what George was doing in the everything changes trailer but I wonder if maybe he ends up suffocating Eddie or something.' Another agreed: 'It would be fitting if something murderous happens - Eddie being taken out by his son years after murdering George's bio father.'
The special episodes will centre around Vicki and Ross's wedding in June. After the wedding, the Beale, Branning, Knight-Mitchell and Fox-Trueman families will find themselves at the heart of the drama. Over the course of a week, the same night will be explored from different perspectives, revealing new details that will affect the families leading up to New Year.
