Eastenders, 24 April 2024, BBC One

In the Wednesday 24 April episode of ‘EastEnders,’ Whitney Dean and Lauren Branning’s feud intensifies as they argue in front of Zack Hudson. Whitney’s quick thinking prevents Lauren from revealing too much, but their conflict continues.

Britney confides in Whitney and Lauren about being bullied on her way to school, prompting Whitney to take matters into her own hands. However, her interference only makes the situation worse.

Meanwhile, Dean reaches out to Jade from prison, but the Slaters discourage any communication between them. At the pub, Avani gives Jade food for thought during her leaving party.

What is going on with Dean and Jade

Jade is being warned off visiting Dean in prison because he has been manipulating and controlling her, even tampering with her medication to keep her ill and prevent her from moving to Pakistan with her mother, Shabnam. Dean’s actions are part of a larger scheme to keep Jade in Walford, and he is willing to go to great lengths to achieve his goals.

The Slaters, including Stacey and Jean, are aware of Dean’s actions and try to convince Jade not to visit him in prison. They know that Dean is capable of deceit and manipulation, and they are concerned for Jade’s well-being.

Dean, on the other hand, is determined to do whatever it takes to prove his innocence, even though he is guilty of tampering with Jade’s medication. He is also facing charges for the murder of Keanu Taylor, a crime he did not commit.

Elsewhere, Nadine attempts to make amends with Lexi over her pregnancy and feels guilty about the impact on Jay.

‘EastEnders’ airs Wednesday, April 24, 2024, at 7:30 PM on BBC One.
