Tuesday's (November 26) episode of EastEnders was a dramatic one, with Cindy Beale's (Michelle Collins) latest mischief leaving the fate of one character in jeopardy, leading fans to speculate that a funeral may be imminent.

The recent visit to Walford began with George Knight (Colin Salmon) and Elaine Peacock (Harriet Thorpe) mulling over their recent disagreement and the uncertainty surrounding their wedding.

Cindy's attempt to ensnare her ex-husband George at Elaine's behest left the groom-to-be bewildered. However, Junior Knight (Micah Balfour) intervened, persuading his father not to let go of a good woman because of past issues.

Unbeknownst to George, his son and his ex-wife have been having an affair, which explains why Junior was so adamant that George and Elaine's wedding should proceed.

After a touching wedding ceremony, the residents of the Square gathered at The Queen Vic to toast the newlyweds. As Elaine turned up the music, the pub became too noisy for Kojo (Dayo Koleosho), who stepped outside for some fresh air, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Meanwhile, Cindy was distraught as George moved on with his life and sought comfort in Junior.

In the Beales' kitchen, the pair discussed their affair, with Junior asserting that Cindy was a toxic woman, always seeking the next thrill, no matter how hard she tried to change. Cindy and Junior then shared a kiss, agreeing to continue their affair.

In a dramatic twist, Junior was seen leaving Cindy's with a kiss just as he hurried back to the wedding reception, unaware that Kojo's eyes were on them.

Kojo, feeling betrayed, told Cindy, he "didn't like it, and I don't like you", before trying to flee up a fire escape. Despite his efforts to dodge her, Cindy pursued him, trying to convince him of her 'false' hoods.

The situation escalated when Kojo, entangled in a confrontation with Cindy, fell from the railings and was found unconscious at the episode's close, stirring speculation among fans about his fate on the show.
