EastEnders spoilers follow.
Next week on EastEnders, Suki and Eve’s all-important adoption panel takes an unexpected turn, and the couple clash with Nicola. Meanwhile, Bea tells a lie about Billy that leaves Honey devastated, and the Fox-Truemans welcome Jordan home from hospital.
Here is our round-up of all the biggest moments coming up in the Square.
1. Jordan arrives home
As the Fox-Truemans prepare to welcome Jordan back from the hospital, Chelsea weighs up whether she should allow Sheila, Gray’s nan, to play a part in her son’s life.
Jordan arrives home to a happy family, but the mood switches when Jack announces that none of them are a stem cell match for Denise.
Devastated, Chelsea retreats to the café, where she is stunned to find Sheila. Still, Sheila finds a way to calm Chelsea down, and the bartender agrees that Jordan should meet his great-gran.
Has Chelsea made the right decision?
2. Suki clashes with Nicola
On the day of Vinny’s move, Suki, Eve and Lily help him with the logistics. Subsequently, at the Vic, drunk Vinny berates Suki for not recognising the anniversary of Jags’ death, leading to an argument between mother and son.
Later in the week, Vinny and Suki share a heart-to-heart about Jags. Suki returns home afterwards, but Eve notices that her wife is still upset.
Next, Suki shares a tense exchange with Nicola at the Minute Mart. What do the two women lock horns over?
3. Bea jumps to the wrong conclusion
Following their ill-fated date, Honey and Billy feel tension between them. Meanwhile, Bea is gutted that none of her neighbours have remembered her birthday.
Later, at The Vic, Bea convinces herself that Kat has planned a birthday surprise for her, when it is actually intended for Lily. How will Bea react when she discovers that she’s got it wrong?
4. Max and Linda share a moment
When Linda comes up with a plan to host a salsa class, Max does his best to persuade locals to go along.
Once the session begins, a drunken attendee threatens to ruin the fun, but Callum intervenes to keep things on track.
Afterwards, Max and Linda share a sentimental chat in which they talk over their difficult past. However, Cindy soon interrupts and takes Max to The Vic.
Elsewhere, Chelsea oversees Sheila and Jordan’s first meeting.
5. Honey speaks her mind
Hurt by the birthday incident at The Vic, Bea heads to the café with Honey, who asks her ex-lodger to refrain from telling Billy that they have met up.
In response, scheming Bea implies to Honey that Billy is controlling her.
Subsequently, Billy crosses paths with the two women, prompting Honey to tell her husband that she will spend time with whoever she chooses.
6. George comes clean to Nicola
Eager to unite the family, Nicola encourages Harry, Barney and Gina to celebrate their annual ‘Half Christmas’ tradition with her.
When the occasion arrives, the Mitchell-Knights embrace the festivities after feeling initially reluctant to get involved.
With the party in full swing, George confesses to Nicola that he has been invited to Eddie’s funeral. Immediately, Nicola promises the dad-of-four that there is no obligation for him to attend.
Also, Harry confides in Nicola that he is terrified about relapsing. Will Nicola offer the support that Harry needs?
7. Bea drops a bombshell
After hearing about Billy’s run-in with Bea, Phil slips the troublemaker a cash-stuffed envelope to encourage her to leave Walford.
Phil’s plan backfires, though, when Bea exposes his bribery attempt to the punters at The Vic.
Afterwards, just as relations between Honey and Billy start to improve, Bea cruelly claims that Billy tried to bed her. Will Honey believe Bea?
8. Suki flees from the adoption panel
It’s time for Suki and Eve to face the adoption panel, coincidentally on the anniversary of Jags’ death.
Suki feels concerned about what the outcome of the panel will be, and another tense interaction with Nicola leaves her irate.
During the panel, Suki is asked about her other children, which is too much to bear for the businesswoman, and she flees. Has she blown her and Eve’s chances of adopting a child?
9. Billy protests his innocence
Following Bea’s accusation, Billy tries to convince Honey and those around him that he never tried to cheat on his wife. Devastated, Honey leaves the pub with Billy and Bea right behind her.
Back at home, Honey, Billy and Bea argue with each other, before Honey pleads with everyone to leave her alone.
With nowhere else to turn, Billy visits Phil, who promises to put things right. But when Bea returns to The Vic, what will be her next move?
10. Eve lashes out
While receiving emotional support from Vinny, Suki receives a call from her and Eve’s adoption officer.
Over at Harry’s Barn, Eve resorts to drinking alcohol to deal with her problems. And Eve’s day goes from bad to worse when she hears Nicola talking in a derogatory way about Suki.
Eve leaps to the defence of her wife, but will she live to regret doing so?
