EastEnders

Looks like all those frequent trips down to Walford's cash and carry could be suspended for the foreseeable future when Peggy makes the unpleasant discovery on Monday that Frank has 'done a Robert Maxwell' and plundered her savings.

Come to think of it, why don't we ever get to see the cash and carry? It could give Dale Winton a chance to break into acting and solve some of the Square's unemployment problems (e.g. Kat) in one fell supermarket sweep.

Having popped the question to Laura, Ian's full steam ahead with wedding plans; infinitely preferring the happy-go-lucky Beale of new, I hope the faint whiff of her inheritance money rather than batter doesn't get him too excited.

And after all those free rides round the block in his black cab, Peggy is getting closer to Charlie Slater. So at his 60th birthday party at the Vic on Thursday, the main surprise is that his brother Harry - a boon of a role for Michael Elphick - pips him to the post in getting to the top of the stairs with Peggy.

Nasty Trevor makes an appearance, but in a display of uncharacteristic toughness, Little Mo makes him a statistic - the second Scot to face a soap exit this week.
