The scales well and truly fall from Nicola Mitchell’s (Laura Doddington) eyes in EastEnders
next week as she learns of a development plan that could land her in prison, as confirmed in our new spoiler gallery.
Husband Teddy (Roland Manookian), as viewers know, is in cahoots with Junior Knight (Micah Balfour) and they’re working on a business opportunity in Dartford using the location of Paradise Park.
Nicola remains in the dark about such a thing but she overhears a conversation next week that leads to Teddy telling her all about the endeavour. The matriarch is left beside herself and swiftly tries to put a stop to it.
Why? Because Paradise Park is the very location of Shireen’s body. Shireen, as viewers will remember, was an ex-girlfriend of Harry’s (Elijah Holloway) that vanished without a trace a number of years ago.
Nicola confessed to having Shireen killed in an unexpected twist. But with the site now the subject of Teddy’s new venture, will Nicola’s big secret be unearthed?
Elsewhere in the Square, Nigel Bates (Paul Bradley) is feeling suffocated by Phil Mitchell’s (Steve McFadden) overprotectiveness and thus, when asked to dress up as the Easter bunny, he accepts.
But things soon take a turn, with Nigel confusing Hope for Clare (Gemma Bissix). Having her suspicions about Nigel after their interaction the previous week, Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) questions Phil, who reveals Nigel’s dementia diagnosis.
Later in the week, it becomes apparent that Nigel, struggling with his diagnosis, is intending to end his own life.

Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho), meanwhile, isn’t thrilled at the prospect of moving back to the Vic – as building work starts on the ruins of the pub – and he expresses his desire to live alone to George Knight (Colin Salmon).
Determined to prove himself, Kojo sets out to land himself a job, and he successfully secures a trial shift with Harry at The Arches. He proves so good that, by week’s end, he has landed a full time job.
It’s going to be a big week in Walford!
