EastEnders goes full Misery next week when deranged Bea Pollard (Roni Ancona) kidnaps Honey Mitchell (Emma Barton) in a final and life-threatening showdown.
Honey’s life is on the line when she finds herself locked up in a cottage in the middle of the woods as Bea’s obsession with her spirals seriously out of control.
Recent weeks have seen Bea step up her campaign to split up Honey and her husband Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick), by doctoring an AI voice note that ‘confirmed’ he had been trying to sleep with her.
After the couple hit the rocks, Billy has been on a mission to prove his innocence, and while Honey initially did not believe him, a shock discovery later this week opens her eyes to Bea’s web of lies and manipulation.

When Honey comes round, she realises Bea is now holding her hostage in a locked cottage…
