EASTENDERS - Lee Carter reveals a Lucy murder secret

Lee Carter returns to Albret Square next week, and with him, reveals something that will shock his entire family.

Making a surprise visit for his mum, Linda's birthday - Lee (after being dressed as a Spice Girl!) has a little too much to drink and mumbles something regarding the night Lucy was murdered.

What does Lee confess?

Lee's dad Mick is shocked to the core to hear his son say about something stupid connected to Ian Beale's daughter.

The next morning, Lee has disappeared,  nowhere to be found following his confession - but once he does come home - he reveals all to his family about what he knows regarding Lucy's death.

And it stuns every single one of them...

Elsewhere - Detective Emma Summerhayes - who is the Beale's family liaison officer, continues her forbidden affair with Max Branning.

Unfortunately for the pair, Max's daughter and Lucy's best friend, Lauren decides to pay her dad a visit to talk about their recent fall out, over Max's affair with Lucy. (Yes - that's a lot of affair's, but hey, it is Max Branning after all!)

Will Lauren catch Emma out and just what will this mean for the case, if so?

EASTENDERS - Dot Cotton films special War Scenes

EastEnders is set to screen some special, emotional, scenes to mark the centenary of the First World War.

June Brown is taking centre stage

Dot Cotton and Lee Carter are the two cast members who will take centre stage in the upcoming episode, although many other characters are present at the memorial service organised by our Dot.

Viewers met Lee, son of Mick and Linda Carter, in April when he visited his family, having taken leave from the Army.

Real life soldiers were also said to be present during the filming of the scenes.

Dot, played by June Brown, once had a stand alone monologue episode, being the only character so far to do so. The character has often spoken about her War experiences from when she was a child - having happily been evacuated to Wales and bought up by a couple she calls Auntie Gwen and Uncle Will.

Lee Carter will soon be a permanent fixture on Albert Square

Meanwhile, Lee Carter, played by Danny-Boy Hatchard, has had his own tough experience while serving, and is said to be making a full-time return to the Square in the future.

Digital Spy spoke to an EastEnders source who said:

"The show thought it was really important to mark the Centenary."

EastEnders will air these special scenes in August.
