EASTENDERS fans are furious at the lack of Cindy Beale in this week’s episodes.
The BBC soap is airing two nights of two episodes this week as sports play havoc with the schedules.
And while this week marks the return to Walford of the iconic Cindy Beale, fans aren’t happy with how little she is in the episodes.
Tonight she made just a handful of appearances across both episodes of EastEnders.
In one she simply lay by the pool and revealed she wanted to return to Walford to reclaim the Beale business empire.
The teasing of Cindy has not gone un-noticed by fans and they want more.
One wrote: “If you lot don’t hurry up this Cindy storyline.”
A second said: “Ngl I was expecting a big trailer for Cindy’s return.”
Another added: “This whole Cindy storyline is dragging on.”
Actress Michelle Collins is making her full-time return to the soap from next week.
Earlier this year she was revealed as the mysterious Rose Knight in a dramatic France-set episode of the soap.
Viewers now know that after being sent to prison for trying to kill then husband Ian Beale, Cindy had her death faked to turn evidence on her gangster cellmate.
The authorities then faked her death in childbirth and Cindy fled for a new life as Rose.
She later met George Knight, married him and had two daughters – Anna and Gina.
They currently live in the Queen Vic but Cindy has no idea – though with her return imminent she’s about to find out and come face to face with the children she abandoned.
