Ian Beale had better watch out - Christmas in Walford is about to be a turbulent one. EastEnders boss Chris Clenshaw has confirmed that Cindy's loyalty will be tested this festive season, as her closeness to her ex-husband George Knight will cause heartache and anger.
Speaking exclusively to The Agency, Chris warned: 'Ian should be worried. Is he worried? Probably not! We know that he was quite fearful of returning to Walford knowing that George ran the Queen Vic, and he obviously found that out before she knew.'
Cindy has a track record for cheating on Ian, and Chris added that he doesn't think Ian should be so confident in his relationship with Cindy. 'We all know who Cindy is, and I think she could give into temptation at any moment.'
Families coming together to celebrate Christmas in Walford will lead to the recognition of the fiery and still very much existent feelings between Cindy and George. 'There's definitely huge chemistry at Christmas between her and George,' Chris revealed. 'We have the Beales and the Knights come together at Christmas to have Cindy's first Christmas in ten years with her daughters and Peter, but what becomes quite apparent is her and George's connection when they actually start to reminisce about Christmases of the past, of them together in Marbella – which is not what anyone, especially Ian or Elaine, want to hear on Christmas Day!'
But just how far will Cindy and George go this Christmas? Chris added that he is 'thrilled' with the response from fans over the decision to bring back Cindy, but Elaine's caustic relationship with her love rival is sure to make things even more complicated.
