EastEnders wedding drama as Elaine's trust test for George leads to hospital dash

The much-anticipated wedding day of Elaine Peacock and George Knight is set to unfold in the upcoming episodes of EastEnders, promising a hefty dose of Walford drama.

However, on the eve of their big day, a nervous Elaine (played by Harriet Thorpe) enlists Cindy Beale's (Michelle Collins) help to test George's (Colin Salmon) loyalty. She devises a honey trap to see if George could be tempted by his ex-wife.

Despite her reservations about her future husband, Cindy agrees to Elaine's proposition. As Cindy and George find themselves alone, she makes a move for a kiss. But how will he react?

Following the awkward encounter, Cindy reveals Elaine's scheme to George, leaving him shocked and storming off to The Queen Vic, reports the Daily Star.

Will Elaine come clean to George or deny her involvement in the setup?

As their wedding day dawns, it remains uncertain whether the couple will exchange vows amidst the family's support.

Further complications arise as Cindy's secret affair with Junior Knight (Micah Balfour) persists. However, when George's brother Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho) catches them together, he grows suspicious.

In typical Cindy fashion, she plots to silence him. A subsequent struggle lands Kojo in the hospital. Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa), who happens to be at the scene, is left wondering about Kojo's fate. Will Cindy admit to her actions?

Meanwhile, Lauren grapples with health concerns following her pregnancy announcement, adding another layer of intrigue to the unfolding drama.

Still suffering from the nightclub incident at Peggy's, she continues to keep a secret from her boyfriend, Peter Beale (Thomas Law), and the rest of her family.

As Peter attempts to be there for Lauren, they end up having a disagreement, prompting Cindy to step in with a warning for Lauren.

Anna Knight (Molly Rainford) gives Peter something to ponder over, leading him to confront Lauren at No. 45 about her possible drinking habits. But how will she respond to Peter's inquiry?

There's further distress for another pair as Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) and Harvey Monroe (Ross Boatman) have another disagreement.

When she excludes him from her financial decisions, they end up in an argument. However, when Kathy Beale (Gillian Wright) intervenes to question the legitimacy of her pension advisors, Jean is faced with some serious inquiries.
