As Linda Carter struggles to cope with life following Mick's disappearance, the Vic landlady will be given another shock next week when she receives a photo from Shirley's daughter, Carly.
The women of Walford will take centre stage in the episode airing on Monday 20th February, celebrating EastEnders' anniversary, where Linda will receive a photo of Shirley with her son, Dean Wicks, the man who raped Linda some years ago.
Linda is in shock to see that Shirley has reunited with her son, despite his crimes, so she takes herself away from the bar and breaks down in the hall, where she is spotted by Kathy Beale who offers her some support.
With recent events playing on her mind, Linda also has to make a decision about the Vic where Nish and Suki Panesar have made an offer to buy Mick's share of the pub.
Feeling torn over the sale of the Vic, Patrick Trueman offers her some wise words which leads her to make a secret phone call.
Who did Linda get in touch with?
EastEnders air these scenes next week on BBC One.
