George Knight (Colin Salmon) isn’t a stranger to drama in Walford, but this week, he’s found himself right at the centre of it again.

Not only is he worried about his brother Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho), but it turns out George has a new woman in his life… and it hasn’t gone unnoticed.

It all starts when George becomes concerned after learning that Kojo’s new friend, Okie, has gifted him an expensive watch.

While George doesn’t want to interfere directly, he’s clearly uneasy, and is relieved when Elaine offers to suss out the situation for him.

But things quickly spiral.

Elaine heads to The Arches to speak with Kojo, only to find him surrounded by a group of threatening lads. Before she can step in, the situation turns aggressive, and Elaine is thrown to the ground in the chaos.

Luckily, Okie turns up just in time. He manages to chase the gang off, stepping in to protect both Elaine and Kojo.

It’s a move that earns him their trust, and later, Kojo gives Okie the key to his flat, showing how much faith he has in his new friend.

Meanwhile, something else is stirring. Cindy and Elaine begin to notice George acting differently, and soon, they make a new discovery: there’s a woman in George’s life. And that woman turns out to be Nicola.

We saw George get cosy with Nicola Mitchell in a surprising turn of events, as the pair shared a passionate kiss after some playful flirting at Harry’s bar. What started as a misleading job offer quickly turned into something more when Harry encouraged Nicola to keep George around.

With his messy love triangle with Elaine and Cindy still looming in the background, this unexpected moment with Nicola might just mark the start of a fresh new chapter for George.

The revelation sets tongues wagging in Walford, especially with Cindy and Elaine both still involved in George’s complicated world.

With tensions already high, George’s new relationship adds another twist to the mix, and suddenly, everyone’s watching to see what happens next.
