As autumn arrives in Walford this year, the residents of Albert Square are set to be hit with an explosive season - which starts with a fire that tears through the heart of one family.
Unable to provide for his brood, Alfie finds himself at his lowest ebb as he struggles financially. Seeing no way out, Alfie decides to take matters into his own hands and burn the family home in the hope of claiming on the insurance. However, as soon as Alfie realises that the house is not empty as he had planned, he rushes home but an unexpected explosion rips through the house. As Alfie rushes into the burning building, it seems his reckless decision will have far reaching consequences that he never expected…
With their upcoming nuptials looming, things are far from happy in the Mitchell household. As Phil realises Sharon has been planning to fleece him, he sets a plan in motion to seek his revenge and he is not alone as his old flame Shirley is happy to slip back into his life and help him. However, things never run smoothly for the Mitchell’s and with the return of Ben, things are going to get a whole lot harder for Phil this month. Will it be a case of for better or worse for Phil and Sharon, or will Shirley make sure things go off with a bang? One thing is for sure, there will be casualties in this love triangle…
It’s not just Ben who returns to the Mitchell fold, but also Ronnie, who is back with a bump. (literally!) Determined to do things alone this time, Ronnie is adamant that she is only back to stop Phil marrying Sharon, but when she finds herself standing in front of Charlie, will she admit the truth?
Speaking about the upcoming storylines, Dominic Treadwell-Collins, Executive Producer said “Bombs that we have been carefully planting over the last few months are about to explode all over The Square, as some of our most iconic characters’ lives change forever. With huge twists, shock returns and stories which will move, provoke and entertain, this September is going to be classic EastEnders and an unforgettable start to our autumn.”
This is just the start of what is in store for the residents of Walford this September but more news will be announced very soon…
