EASTENDERS - Stacey's back for good, will Ryan follow?


This week, we've seen the (permanent) return of Stacey to Albert Square. 

Who's glad to see her return? 

I am, mainly because it's been one of the most highly anticipated returns of the year and secondly, because Stacey is one of my favourite characters. 
Stacey's coming, going and coming again kept giving us little teasers of what we were about to gain on her return and last nights ep didn't disappoint. 

Feisty Stacey was back with a bang, letting Whitney know exactly where she stood when it came to Lily. Whitney mentioning Ryan to Lily (and the messages she's been receiving from her missing brother) got fans in a spin about Ryan's possible return. And tonight, we saw it! 

Stacey and Ryan, I feel, were a great relationship waiting to happen - but they didn't ever really get going. Bar having a child together, of course! 
So if Ryan was to make a (permanent) comeback, it would be welcome! I couldn't believe it when he popped himself around from the back of that shed in the park... Well done Dominic T-C for yet another surprise comeback well kept. 

In this week's episodes, so far, we've seen the multi-dimensional Stacey that everyone loves best. She's given us 'mouthy,' 'emotional,' and 'compassionate' already. She and Whitney could be a fab friendship just waiting to happen... 

Elsewhere, I need to give a special mention to Cindy's return. Having given birth, on Ian's living room floor of all places...teen motherhood seems to have made her a softer soul. The scenes between Cindy and Ian (yet another great Adam Woodyatt performance) during baby Beth's birth were both touching and hilarious at the same time. 

Mimi Keene, who plays Cindy, has promised that we'll soon be seeing even more developments in Lucy's murder case, while Ben Hardy, who plays Peter Beale has said that scenes he's filmed lately have made him question whether Jane Beale could be the murderer! Ooo-err!

Back to Stacey, though - and I hope it's not too long before we discover the secret of the key she gave to Lauren Branning to keep safe. 

Why do I now wonder if it has something to do with Ryan... He's a man on the run. She was a woman on the run. They share Lily together. 

Secrets in Walford seem to be getting more and more exciting!
