Did you all enjoy your little Mother’s Day treat? It’s always nice to see old faces, but especially nice to welcome Ann Mitchell back to Walford as the snarky Cora Cross – even if it was for a brief moment. Who knows, as long as Lauren and Oscar are on the Square, she can always pop up again… And wouldn’t you just love to see her out on the town with her grandson? Oh, the carnage!
And of course, if you’re reading this on the right day, then today’s the day we finally meet Josh Goodwin – Zoe Slater‘s long-lost son! Next week, the story continues when Josh has a wonderful time with his grandfather Patrick while bonding with the Trueman-Fox clan!
But a tense encounter on the market brings him into contact with the rowdy Slaters and his mum Zoe! And as Jasmine‘s trial for the murder of dad Anthony Trueman begins, Cindy arrives to talk to Kat and Zoe! Does Cindy have a conscience? Will the evidence that could free Jasmine reunite the twins for the very first time? Will the Slaters come together with the Trueman-Fox clan for justice, or will the trial and it’s shocks rip their fragile family bond apart forever?
But it’s not all doom and gloom for Josh as he acquaints himself with Albert Square. The handsome lad quickly catches the eye of Oscar Branning – who likes what he sees! Soon the pair are tumbling into bed and waking up the morning after… But of course, Oscar doesn’t know that his latest bedroom notch is also his incarcerated ex-girlfriend’s twin brother!
Oh, this is going to be interesting… or deeply disturbing… Um…
Until next time…
