EASTENDERS - The mystery of when Ronnie returns...

Last night saw Ronnie Mitchell up sticks and leave Albert Square... Again!

But, fear not, Ronnie fans - we've been promised that the most troubled of the troubled Mitchell sisters will be back by the end of Summer.

Ronnie left us after revealing to a shocked Phil that she not only has been harbouring a gun - although I'm not sure why Phil would be shocked by this, considering all the things he's harboured over the years! - and as he reminded Ronnie, she killed a guy and crushed him in the back of a car. Considering this, a gun is nothing in Mitchell faaaaamly land.

The second shock which Ronnie has been hiding is 'duff duff duff' - she's pregnant!

Presumably with Charlie Cotton's offspring, whom she has now dumped.

I, along with a cast of Ronnie Mitchell fans, really hope that Dominic Treadwell-Collins allows Ronnie to finally get a little piece of a happy ending with the baby she has desperately wanted for years.

What will happen when Ronnie returns?

Now, if Ronnie does return with baby-in-tum, and Charlie works out it's his, I think that a new power couple of the Square could be born.
Ronnie clearly has a messed-up mind at times and we still haven't delved deep enough to know exactly what it is Charlie is hiding. Is he even really a Cotton? And it would give Dot a whole family to fuss over...

I also can't help but think that the writers and DTC wouldn't be able to resist adding a new twist in the Ronnie tale.

We all know that Ronnie's sister Roxy's man Aleks (kept up?) already has a wife and child back in Latvia, so he's not shy about the whole 'cheating' thing. And with Roxy about to get her revenge on Aleks, when she finds out about his philandering ways - will he be able to charm his way back into Roxy's heart. And if he does... how much of a shocker would it be if Ronnie was a notch on the Market inspector's bed post, and it turns out the baby is actually Aleks'?

I can imagine it now - "Well, you did it to me Rox..."

And Roxy did - with Jack - which resulted in Amy.

Last night's episode had us all wanting more from Ronnie... I can't wait to see how her story unfolds when she jumps back into that taxi to the Square!
