As their wedding day gets closer, George Knight (played by Colin Salmon) surprises his bride-to-be, Elaine Peacock (Harriet Thorpe), with a thoughtful present on EastEnders (7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
George can't wait to marry Elaine and put his complicated past with ex-wife, Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins), behind him.
However, George's good mood disappears when he discovers Elaine has a "gift" of her own for him.
In the shape of a wedding pre-nuptial agreement drawn-up by her legal eagle grandson, Johnny Carter (Charlie Suff)!
Will George agree to sign the legal document?
Meanwhile, Cindy is still lurking around in the background and warns George's loverboy son, Junior (Micah Balfour), to stop meddling between her and fiance, Ian Beale (Adam Woodyat).
Junior clearly wants ex-lover Cindy back.
Will he quit playing games with her heart?
There's no love lost between Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) and her ex-bestie, Ruby Allen (Louisa Lytton).
With Ruby unexpectedly back in the lives of both Stacey and her husband, Martin Fowler (James Bye), Stacey vows to support her man in his battle against his ex-wife...
Could the fight soon be on to SAVE Bridge Street market?
The market traders are up-in-arms over plans to shutdown their place of business.
Mr Lister (Nick Wilton), long-time market inspector, is back on the scene.
He is secretly thrilled when Honey Mitchell (Emma Barton) hugs him, after he pledges to support the traders fight back against the plans...
EastEnders continues Monday to Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One.
