EastEnders\u2019 George Knight struggles with his guilt<\/a> next week, as arrangements for Eddie\u2019s funeral bring back awful memories of the moment he stood back and allowed his bigoted dad to die right in front of him. <\/p>\n

After a mystery figure from George\u2019s past<\/a> questions his firm choice not to allow Eddie to be buried with his late wife Gloria, George feels wretched. Visiting Gloria\u2019s grave, George grapples with extreme guilt over not saving Eddie\u2019s life \u2013 and turns to drink to mask his pain\u2026<\/p>\n

“Gloria renounced her relationship with Eddie before she died, so George wants to respect her wishes and leave her to rest in peace away from her racist, killer husband,” explains our Walford insider.<\/p>\n

“However, he\u2019s forced to cope with the guilt that is eating him alive. Eve and Jean find him drunk on a bench, and he opens up to Eve \u2013 but will he tell her why he\u2019s so distraught?”<\/p>\n

George\u2019s guilt has been causing issues in his relationship with Nicola<\/a> and, seeing him struggle, his ex-wife Elaine tries to support him as a friend. <\/p>\n

However, this leads to a further row between George and Nicola following a misunderstanding, with Nicola taking out her fury on Suki and Eve<\/a>!<\/p>\n

“Nicola has been at war with the Panesar-Unwins since Eve punched her in the face, and she directs her wrath towards them again now,” reveals our source.<\/p>\n

“Hopefully, George choosing to open up to Eve in his drunken state will change Nicola\u2019s opinion and help to put a stop to the cruelty. If not, can Eve swing the situation to her advantage after lending an ear to George?”<\/p>\n

Helpful Phil tries to mediate between rowing Nicola and George, but it\u2019s no use, as Nicola refuses to make up with him. However, after George hits the bottle, Nicola grows concerned about her other half and asks Harry to summon him to the club.<\/p>\n

There, she pushes George to open up about the source of his guilt and tells him emotional tales about her own past. <\/p>\n

As the fractured couple share their first tender moment in a long time, could Nicola and George\u2019s relationship be on the mend? And can Nicola help him to come to terms with his guilt?<\/p>\n

EastEnders airs on Mondays-Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer, where most episodes drop early at 6am ahead of their TV broadcast.<\/p>\n
