Next week in EastEnders, Gina Knight finds herself tangled in a dangerous web of secrets, lies, and emotional turmoil as she grows increasingly concerned for Harry Mitchell’s wellbeing. What began as a simple flirtation quickly descends into something far darker—forcing Gina to question what Harry is hiding… and what his family might be covering up.

After a lighthearted exchange between Harry and her uncle Kojo, things took a romantic turn for Gina when she agreed to go out with the troubled Mitchell lad. Despite Kojo’s “subtle” efforts to play wingman—emphasis on the quotation marks—the message got through loud and clear. Harry wasted no time in opening up to Gina, admitting that she’s the first woman he’s truly had feelings for since the disappearance of his ex-girlfriend Shireen… four years ago.

But what Harry doesn’t know is the truth behind that disappearance—Shireen didn’t run away or leave him behind. She was murdered by his own mother, Nicola, in a cold-blooded act that has haunted the Mitchell family ever since. Her body was buried on a derelict industrial site in Dartford, with Nicola’s shady associate Benji tasked with keeping the secret hidden. However, as fate would have it, that very plot of land is now being redeveloped by Harry’s father, Teddy.

With the redevelopment plans putting their buried secret at risk, Nicola was forced to confess to her son Teddy, unleashing a tidal wave of panic. Teddy, in a desperate move to protect his family, convinced Benji to relocate the body for a £150,000 payout—then coldly framed him for the murder. Benji was arrested, and the Mitchells hoped the truth would be buried for good.

But now, that illusion is cracking.

Although the family has gone to extreme lengths to shield Harry from the horrific truth, it becomes clear that something is deeply wrong. In upcoming scenes, Harry is found heavily hungover by his uncle Billy at The Arches, a worrying sign that he may be unraveling. Billy, alarmed, takes Harry to Walford East to sober up, but things quickly escalate when Teddy arrives and tension between father and son explodes.

Has Harry discovered the terrible truth about Shireen’s fate? Or is the pressure of a life built on secrets beginning to wear him down?

Gina, meanwhile, is keeping a watchful eye on Harry. She’s drawn to him, yes—but also increasingly unsettled. When he stumbles into the café clearly intoxicated, she presses him for answers, but Harry is evasive and volatile. Later, Billy makes an effort to smooth things over with his nephew, but the damage may already be done.

Nicola, ever the control freak, steps in to confront Gina, issuing thinly veiled warnings as she attempts to track down her eldest son. It’s a harsh interaction that only deepens Gina’s suspicions. She senses the Mitchells are hiding something serious—and it involves Harry.

Determined to clear her head, Gina agrees to meet Jay Mitchell for a casual drink. But the night takes an unexpected turn when a drunken Harry arrives and interrupts the evening, his behavior erratic and unpredictable. Gina’s concern turns to fear as the situation deteriorates. Jay, alarmed by Harry’s outburst, alerts Nicola and Teddy, who rush to the scene to calm their son.

As the dust settles, Gina is left shaken and more convinced than ever that the Mitchell family is harboring a secret—one that could explain Harry’s spiraling behavior and emotional turmoil. Despite Nicola and Teddy’s attempts to protect their son, the cracks are beginning to show, and Gina is ready to dig deeper.

What will she uncover? Is Harry on the verge of learning the shocking truth about his mother’s deadly actions? Could the repressed trauma and deception push him past the point of no return?

And as Gina presses Harry for answers, will she become a confidante… or a threat?

This week’s explosive EastEnders storyline promises to bring simmering secrets to a boil—and Harry’s fragile mental state may be the key to unraveling everything. With Nicola and Teddy growing desperate, Gina’s determination to uncover the truth could either save Harry… or destroy him.

Tune in next week on BBC One to see how far the Mitchells are willing to go to protect their lies—and whether Gina will be the one to bring it all crashing down.
