Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) has made sinister plans to steal Phil Mitchell’s (Steve McFadden) gun in EastEnders. The Walford legend is fearing for her life following a disturbing attack on Christmas Day, when she almost met her end at the hands of a snow shovel.

It won’t be until the BBC soap’s 40th anniversary next month when the finally find out who the mystery walloper is, but until then a number of her own friends and family have been put in the spotlight. Let’s face it – they haven’t exactly helped themselves. Daughter Gina (Francesca Henry) launched a brick at her through a window, warning that her days are numbered.

The note attached read: ‘You should have stayed dead, now I’m coming for you.’. She’s now denied being part of the overall plot, saying that she merely didn’t want her estranged mother to return home to Albert Square. The finger has also been pointed at her other daughter Anna (Molly Rainford), ex-husband George Knight (Colin Salmon) and his wife Elaine (Harriet Thorpe), who all found the shovel in the barrel store and decided to move it.

Rather than reporting it to the police, George stashed it away on The Queen Vic roof. We can’t forget his bloody shirt, which was found in the cupboard behind the bar either. Despite his insistence that he was partaking in an illegal fight at the time, George admitted to Gina in tonight’s episode that he wasn’t being 100% truthful.
