After weeks of intense secrecy surrounding the identity of George Knight’s mysterious ex-wife Rose, the truth was finally revealed to EastEnders viewers on Wednesday evening when it emerged Rose Knight was actually Cindy Beale!

It didn't take long for EastEnders super sleuth fans to predict a major plotline twist is beckoning after the arrival of George Knight on Thursday evening. After many hints were dropped by the character about his mystery wife and the mother of his two daughters, eagle-eyed fans think they know who she is.

Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) was not best pleased when George Knight (Colin Salmon) and his family rocked up on her doorstep in EastEnders with the news that they were moving in. In fact, it’s safe to say that she was furious. She wasn’t the only one, as the Knight sisters, Anna and Gina (Molly Rainford and Francesca Henry), upset locals with their party plans so soon after Lola Pearce’s (Danielle Harold) tragic death.

Colin Salmon is "exhausted" after joining 'EastEnders'. The 61-year-old actor is known for playing Charles Robinson in three 'James Bond' films but has now swapped Hollywood for the small screen after joining the cast of BBC One soap opera 'EastEnders' as George Knight and admitted it came as a shock just how intense filming can be. Speaking on ITV1's 'Good Morning Britain', he said: "It's been thrilling, exhausting and incredibly nourishing but I'm enjoying the ensemble, it's fun, it's great fun.

EastEnders aired some of the saddest scenes in the show's history on Wednesday night, as young Lola Pearce passed away.The young mum-of-one died after her battle with a brain tumour, while her young daughter Lexi lay beside her.

As the sun rose, Lola took her last breath, leaving her family heartbroken.

EastEnders fans are set to join Linda Carter on a super sleuth trail in an attempt to get to the bottom of newcomer George Knight's hidden secret. George, played by newbie Colin Salmon and who is best known for his role as MI6 deputy chief of staff Charles Robinson in three Bond films, has made himself comfortably at home as Elaine Peacock's new life partner and settles in at The Queen Vic. All is not as it seems though and Elaine's daughter, Linda, can smell a rat.

There's nothing stranger for an EastEnders fan than to sit down for Lola Pearce-Brown's final episode and find that the feisty Albert Square favourite doesn't say a word throughout — and yet, it's the parting words of her family and friends that hit home just how brilliant the character was. Since Lola was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour in October last year, viewers have been emotionally preparing to say goodbye to the long-time Walford resident as we've seen her health slowly deteriorate over the last few months in scenes that prove Danielle Harold is more than deserving of a British Soap Award.

A new family will make their debut in Walford next month when the Knights arrive to join new Queen Vic landlady Elaine Peacock in the Square. The clan haven't even arrived yet but speculation is already mounting on what could be in store for the trio.

EastEnders star Kellie Bright has said that "everyone is the enemy" for Linda Carter after the death of Mick (Danny Dyer), with her character "very scarred" by last year's drama with Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks). The landlady of the Queen Vic is in for a big shock next week, with the arrival of her mother's lover George Knight (Colin Salmon) and his two daughters — and Linda doesn't take it well, according to Kellie.

Molly Rainford is set to burst onto Albert Square as newcomer Anna Knight in upcoming EastEnders episodes, and the actress has reflected on how ‘nuts’ her role is. Anna will arrive in Walford alongside sister Gina (Francesca Henry) and dad George (Colin Salmon) as they prepare to move into the Queen Vic with Linda Carter and Elaine Peacock (Kellie Bright and Harriet Thorpe). Molly explained the surreal experience of filming for a show that she has grown up watching, describing it as ‘incredible’.
