As someone who has been following EastEnders for as long as I can remember, I must say that this Christmas Day episode was nothing short of a rollercoaster ride! The drama surrounding Cindy Beale and her secret affair was finally unveiled, causing havoc among the Beales and Knights.
*Warning: EastEnders Christmas Day spoilers ahead*
The BBC soap, EastEnders, served up a generous amount of drama for its Christmas special, and they truly didn’t disappoint with an overwhelming dose of it!
The plot revolved around Cindy Beale, portrayed by Michelle Collins, when her hidden infidelity came to light, shocking both the Beales and the Knights.
Cindy had vowed to depart the country alongside Ian, escaping her regrettable deeds, thanks to an unexpected opportunity given by her adversary Elaine (Harriet Thorpe). However, it should be noted that this opportunity was essentially blackmail, since Elaine was threatening to disclose all her secrets if Cindy didn’t comply.
In a just manner, Cindy seized the moment and vowed that she and her partner would depart from Walford following their Christmas meal together.
But as this is EastEnders and as it’s Christmas, there was plenty of time for another twist.
As a devoted movie enthusiast, I managed to get my hands on some intriguing evidence after eavesdropping on a conversation between Cindy and Elaine. They mentioned an incriminating tape that could potentially shake things up, so I felt compelled to investigate further.
Unexpectedly, Lauren mentioned that she had wrapped up the crucial evidence as a Secret Santa present, intended for someone dear to her heart, to unwrap later on.
Without a second thought, Cindy wouldn’t have turned to face Ian due to her disdain towards him. Instead, she focused on examining different gifts as a means of self-preservation.
However, it came down to the wire – Ian inserted the USB stick into the computer, and automatically, it began playing to the dismay of George (Colin Salmon), Junior (Micah Balfour), Ian, and the Beale/Knight children, leaving them all in shock and distress.
In a surprising outburst, George angrily scolded his son for tampering with “his things,” leaving Elaine utterly shocked – It’s clear that Cindy no longer plays a role in George’s life, and he most definitely does not own her as property.
Ian punched Junior and the pair got into a scrap, while Lauren looked on with delight.
In simpler terms, Cindy made an effort to clarify her perspective, yet it fell on deaf ears, and ultimately lashed out at the whole family by highlighting their shortcomings.
When the Beales disintegrated completely, unfortunately, the Knight family also met their end. In this situation, Elaine struck George across the face in a fit of anger due to his actions, and subsequently, she asked him to leave the pub.
When Cindy hurriedly departed to save whatever she could from Ian, Lauren beamed victoriously towards Peter (Thomas Law), seeking confirmation of her actions, but he was weary of the deception and told her to keep her distance following her actions that had affected not one, but two families during Christmas. Moreover, he reminded her of the lasting damage she caused when she revealed Stax (Stacey/Max) back in 2007, effectively tearing her own family apart.
Meanwhile, Cindy hastily made her way to the Beale residence, only to discover Ian there, visibly distraught and unwilling to entertain her explanations.
Following Kathy’s guidance, he took decisive action by physically evicting Cindy from the residence and sending her out into the cold snow, expressing that their relationship had ended.
On Christmas Day, Cindy made up her mind that she needed to leave Walford. She began arranging for a taxi, but knew she’d have quite a while to spare before it arrived.
As she strolled through the square, people from the Beale and Knight families, whom she had grievously harmed, simmered with anger and wept.
As a devoted film enthusiast, I gazed upon the locket that once belonged to Lauren, a treasured gift from Ian. Before an unexpected blow from a shovel left me reeling, I leaned in to give it a tender kiss.
With the final image of her flat out on the floor, is Cindy dead? And who hit her?
Is Cindy Beale dead after EastEnders airs horrific attack on Christmas Day 2024?
At this point, we have no idea if Cindy Beale is dead or alive in EastEnders.
We’ll have to tune in on Boxing Day to see whether the schemer lives or not.
It would certainly create drama with a murderous whodunnit for the 40th anniversary, but we also only just got Cindy back last year – so who knows?!
