EastEnders spoilers: David Wicks returns, abuse twist and Lola Pearce tribute ruined
EastEnders is set to air some dramatic scenes as David Wicks makes a comeback next week.
Cindy finds herself in shock when David reappears in the Square, but she's determined to avoid any uncomfortable reunion - especially since he believes she's deceased. Viewers of the BBC soap will recall that Cindy was thought to have 'died' during childbirth while incarcerated, but it was subsequently disclosed that she had been placed in witness protection under the pseudonym Rose Knight and had two children with George Knight.
In the upcoming episodes, Cindy discusses with George why David's return could be problematic for her, and he advises her to simply talk to him. David gets the surprise of his life when he sees Cindy standing before him, very much alive.
The duo have a lot to catch up on, and David has questions for Cindy as they sit down to discuss the past few decades. Meanwhile, Ian is appalled to learn that David has returned.
In other news, David shifts his focus to Bianca and the two engage in some profound discussions - but what exactly do they need to discuss?

Later, the atmosphere sours when Tommy disrupts Jay's moment as he shares a heart-warming video message from cherished Lola for his 30th birthday. An irritated Kat pleads with Tommy to amend his behaviour, and Phil is taken aback by Tommy's brash retort.
