EastEnders spoilers follow.

EastEnders’ Anna Knight is set to receive some devastating news in upcoming scenes as she pays Eddie a visit in prison.

As viewers may know, Anna’s grandmother Gloria recently passed away after suffering a heart attack while her husband Eddie stood trial for the murder of George’s biological father.

In scenes airing next week on BBC One, Anna decides to visit Eddie in prison. However, given how fraught things are between Eddie and her father George, she keeps the visit to herself.

While speaking to Eddie, Anna is devastated to learn that Gloria’s funeral has already taken place without the Knight family in attendance. She then worries about how she’ll break the news to George.

Before Gloria’s death, George’s life was thrown into disarray when he discovered that Gloria and Eddie had adopted him as a result of a practice known as child farming.

Previously discussing the storyline, George actor Colin Salmon said: “It’s been beyond expectation to travel this journey and to see the response from the viewers and my friends and family, as well as people who have encountered farming and complex family situations, and the younger generation who have been excited about seeing the colourism debate being explored.”

“As an actor, I just feel this storyline is some of my best work and it’s a great honour to be able to lead the storyline with some great actors,” he added.

“I can’t stress how important the team have been, we all came away nourished by it. Bold and brave, that’s public service broadcasting to me.”

Elsewhere on the BBC soap, there’s another father/son story brewing as Billy Mitchell’s life will turned upside down next week when his estranged father Stevie (played by Alan Ford) turns up in Walford.

EastEnders airs on Mondays – Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer, where most episodes drop early at 6am ahead of their TV broadcast.
