The explosive first-look clip was shared to the soap's social media channels with the caption: "Who's in danger?"

Theories among the EastEnders fan base have already run wild with many speculating that it could involve Barney and Teddy Mitchell and the revelation that Zack Hudson is his real father.
One fan wrote on X: "My theory is, this is when Zack attempts to kidnap Barney & Teddy or Nicola gives chase. Nicola fires her gun at the car, Zack loses control, the car crashes with Barney & Zack inside."
As another stated: "Probably Teddy or Nicola. Or both."
Moreover, some fans speculated that iconic character Stacey Slater could be involved in the smash after it was revealed that actress Lacey Turner had quit the show.

Lacey told the Sun: 'It's time for myself and Stacey to take a rest and who knows what Stacey will get up to in her time away? Knowing Stacey, it will never be boring."
A soap insider said: "Lacey made the decision last year to take some time out from the show, she's had a busy year both on and off screen, so it feels a good time to give Stacey a rest.
"Lacey loves EastEnders, and it's no secret how much EastEnders love Lacey, so it's not a question of if she will be back, but when.'

Stacey Solomon hits back at fans accusing her of being ‘smug' on ‘free holiday' after £30k trip to Turkey
STACEY Solomon has hit back at fans who branded her "smug" and accused her of blagging a "free" holiday - after she splashed out on a luxury trip to Turkey. The mum of five sparked a wave of comments online after she shared snaps from her stunning getaway. 7 Stacey Soloman hit back at trolls who accused her of flaunting her "free holiday" Credit: Instagram 7 She made it clear that these claims were not true, and the trip was "very expensive" Credit: Instagram 7 The mum of five took her whole family on holiday to Turkey Credit: Instagram The Loose Women star, 35, flew to Turkey with husband Joe Swash, 43, and their kids, as well as her sisters, their kids and her father, for a huge family getaway. But she was cruelly shamed for her latest big-bucks trip as fans claimed the star was "seriously smug" and "out of touch." They called out the pricey nature of their trip to the Regnum Carya in Antalya, which cost £30K a week for the family. It sits perched on a beach with crystal clear sands and an idyllic pier, and rooms start from around £1,000 per person per night. Stacey had described the plush resort in Antalya as her "second home" in an Instagram post. This prompted one fan to comment: "So another well subsidised holiday for the entire family. It makes me throw up." Another added: "The seriously smug family." A third penned: "Annoying family." After landing home, Stacey addressed the backlash, insisting that the claims were not true and it wasn't a "free holiday." Taking to her Instagram stories, she wrote: "Now we're going home I've tagged the hotel for all of you asking & I'll share my little "spend the day with us" and show you around everywhere. Stacey Solomon hits back at cruel troll who branded her a 'horse mouth' "This is the third time I've come back here. This wasn't a free holiday. I just love this place so much & think it deserves the BEST reviews & tags ever because it's just incredible. "It is very expensive. I do think it is worth every penny & more for what it has to offer." The couple have a blended family of six children. They share three kids together – Rex, six, Rose, three, and Belle, two – while Stacey is also mum to Zachary, 17, and Leighton, 12, and Joe has 18-year-old son Harry with his ex Emma Sophocleous. Stacey Solomon's career so far Stacey Solomon has been a familiar face on viewers' screens for over a decade. Let's take a look back at her career. The X Factor (2009): Stacey competed in series six of long-running ITV singing competition The X Factor. During her time in the show, she was mentored by Danni Minogue in the 'Girls' category. The star finished in third place, behind Joe McElderry and Olly Murs. I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here (2010); In late 2010, Stacey headed to the infamous I'm A Celeb Aussie jungle. After 21 days, she triumphed to win the tenth series. It was through I'm A Celeb that she met future husband Joe Swash - who'd won two years earlier and was hosting the ITV2 spinoff. Celebrity Juice (2011―2013, 2016―2019): The star appeared as a panellist on 21 episodes of the comedy panel game show hosted by Keith Lemon. Stacey was a regular in the 21st series, broadcast in 2019. Loose Women (2016 - present): Stacey has been a permanent panel member of the daytime show since 2016. She previously made guest appearances in 2011 and 2012. Sort Your Life Out (2022 -present): This BBC show sees Stacey, with the help of an expert team, transform participants' living spaces after removing clutter. Fans had previously quizzed why Joe's son wasn't present on the trip. One fan wrote: "Lovely family pic. Wish Joe eldest son was included more." While another added: "Why is Joe's eldest son never with them." This person said: "I agree would be nice for them to acknowledge they're missing one!" Their holiday comes after it was reported how Stacey and Joe have made a "vow" amid "silly bickering", according to a source. It comes after "tension" between the popular couple has recently been captured on TV. However, according to a source, the couple have vowed to take time out to remember why they're so good for each other. During their BBC reality show, the pair shared a close-up look into the ups and downs of life at Pickle Cottage and their relationship. The source told New Magazine: 'There's tension in the air and there is a bit of bickering. But it puts a strain on any relationship. "You look at those on reality shows, such as the wives in The Real Housewives, with cameras in their houses 24/7, and a lot of their relationships crack under the pressure.' Despite this, the source maintained that a break away from the cameras, however small, is just what Stacey and Joe need. The source added: 'They're worried that if they don't have a break from the cameras and the limelight, it could affect what makes their relationship special. 'They're still very much in love and are really trying to focus on each other amid the silly bickering and moments of tension, and remember why they got together in the first place – and why they're actually so perfect together. "They have vowed to carve out some quality time this summer to do that." 7 Stacey insisted that she paid for her family holiday Credit: Instagram 7 The star shared snaps of her blended family on social media Credit: Instagram 7 Some fans wondered where Joe's son Harry was Credit: Instagram

On Sunday, she shared more videos and snaps from the getaway, and surprised her followers by sharing a picture with Molly-Mae. Molly-Mae, 26, was also staying at the resort with partner Tommy Fury and their daughter Bambi. In the snap, Stacey wore a red swimsuit with a pair of ripped denim shorts over the top. Meanwhile Molly-Mae wore cream joggers with a matching T-shirt. The women looked delighted to be in each other's company, and Stacey captioned it: "Got to spend the first part of our holiday with @MollyMae, @TommyFury and Bambi.

Molly-Mae then re-shared Stacey's post alongside a love heart and teary eyed emojis.

"I am actually so proud of myself because I've stuck to my weight training consistently since February. Stacey Solomon's cleaning tips IF you want a home that gleams like Stacey's, you'll need to listen up! Label Everything: Stacey swears by the power of labelling. From pantry jars to storage bins, clear labels help keep everything organised and easy to find. Daily Tidy Routine: Dedicate 15-20 minutes each day to tidying up. This prevents clutter from building up and makes weekly deep cleaning less daunting. Baking Soda Magic: Stacey uses baking soda for a variety of cleaning tasks. It's great for deodorising carpets, cleaning grout, and even freshening up mattresses. Upcycle Containers: Repurpose old jars, tins, and containers to store cleaning supplies, craft materials, or kitchen ingredients. It's both eco-friendly and cost-effective. Shine with Vinegar: White vinegar is a staple in Stacey's cleaning arsenal. It works wonders on windows, mirrors, and even limescale build-up in kettles. Make It Fun: Turn on your favourite music or podcast to make cleaning less of a chore and more of a fun, productive activity. Use a Toothbrush: For those hard-to-reach spots, a toothbrush can be an excellent tool. Use it to scrub grout lines, around taps, and in other small crevices. Declutter Regularly: Stacey advises a regular declutter session to get rid of items you no longer need. This keeps your home neat and creates more space for the things you love. Air Fresheners: Create your own natural air fresheners using essential oils. Stacey loves using lavender or citrus oils to keep her home smelling fresh. Microfibre Cloths: These are essential for dusting and cleaning surfaces without leaving streaks. They are reusable and can be easily washed. Incorporate these tips into your routine for a cleaner, more organised home, just like Stacey Solomon's! "Kept quiet and just got my head down & kept going. I genuinely only do it because I want to be so strong. Like boss b***h strong. "I want to forever be able to pick up my babies with ease & carry double buggies on my shoulder when necessary." Stacey continued: "I feel so much stronger this year which is so empowering & yes my body has changed but honestly I loved my body aesthetically last year as much as I do this year. "I've always been beautiful no matter what shape or size. "So I suppose what I'm trying to say is… Don't commit to fitness just for the looks. "Do it so you can wrestle your 17 year old & carry all three of your toddlers in 40• heat & you'll enjoy the journey more." 5 Stacey showed off her bikini body earlier in the trip Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk

Gladiators star reveals heartbreaking moment he knew that newborn son wouldn't survive as he launches charity
GLADIATORS favourite Zack George has revealed the devastating moment he realised his newborn son wouldn't survive. The TV strongman, 35, opened up about the tragedy as he launches a charity in the little boy's name, saying he hopes the new foundation will help other families facing the same heartbreak. 4 The Gladiators star reveals the heartbreaking moment he knew his newborn son wouldn't survive Credit: Instagram 4 Now Zack and partner Samantha are launching Leo And Friends — a charity set up in memory of their son Credit: Instagram / @zackgeorge Zack - who is better known as Steel - told the Mirror how Leo was born "really strong", before things took a downward turn two days into his life. Initially, Leo was placed on a ventilator, but after responding well he was taken off it and provided with CPAP, a non-invasive way of keeping airways open. However, when he was retubed after six hours, it is believed accidental damage was done to his windpipe. As well as suffering from brain bleeds, a hole in the heart and collapsing lungs, air pockets began to form around his lungs. Zack said: "Around the tenth day they started getting a bit bigger. They came to the conclusion that when they tubed him, either the first or the second time, they created a hole in his windpipe. "It's no one's fault, a baby that young is really fragile, it's just a risk. 'That was really hard, because if it hadn't happened, he would probably still be here. A 23-week-old baby has so much to do. "Overnight, he got quite bad, that's when we went in and he passed away.' Zack and his partner Samantha made the heartbreaking decision to go against giving Leo CPR. They couldn't ask Leo to fight any more, having already witnessed him go through so much. Gladiator Steel shares heartbreaking images from baby son's funeral after his devastating death at just 13 days old Samantha said: 'Imagine that on a baby so tiny? We didn't want to put him through any more pain.' Zack announced Leo's tragic death with a heartbreaking picture of he and Samantha holding him. He wrote on Instagram: "Your mummy brought you into this world and your daddy held you as you left. "Leo…… you showed us what the true definition of strength is and we are so proud of you.

"You brought so much positivity to the world with the short time you were with us and we felt that positivity in abundance, we thank you all so much for that." He continued: "Although you were only with us for a short time, you brought us a lifetime of love. Thank you for letting us know that YOU had had enough of this fight. We will forever be grateful that we didn't have to make that decision for you." "Leo our lion, we love you more than you will ever know. Rest easy our little boy." Now, Zack and Samantha are launching Leo And Friends — a charity set up in memory of their son to raise awareness and funds for Leicester Hospital's neonatal intensive care unit. The first event, 13 Days Fighting, sponsored by Currys, will see challenges take place across the UK this month. 'I want to turn something so awful into something positive,' Zack said. 'Every year we'll honour him with a new challenge — and raise money for the incredible staff who cared for him.' Zack's first challenge will be a burpee mile – 800 burpees – every day for each of the 13 days that his son lived. 'Just doing one mile is hard,' said Zack. 'Doing 13 back to back will be extremely tough, but I want that. I'm looking forward to the challenge.' 4 Zack plans to do a new challenge every year to honour his son Credit: BBC
