The news is out: David Wicks is back in Walford – and EastEnders fans think that he and Cindy Beale are set to rekindle their iconic romance. The pair are best remembered for their steamy affair in the 90s – with David betraying his own half-brother to shock and appall with their bad romance.
Last night’s episode (airing Thursday, October 3) saw David return to Walford, having learned that daughter Bianca is struggling with her mental health. Climbing out of a taxi, David was shocked to see a drunken Bianca upended in a pile of rubbish, having been chucked out of The Vic.
Next week’s episodes will see David attempt to make things right with his daughter. But how will he react when he comes face-to-face with ex Cindy for the first time since her ‘death’?
