EastEnders' Michelle Collins' 'real reason' for missing live episode


EastEnders will be going live tonight, but Cindy Beale star Michelle Collins has confirmed that she won't be taking part in the episode - as Cindy was rushed to hospital

The hour-long anniversary episode yesterday showcased the aftermath of Tuesday's explosion at the Queen Vic, resulting in several casualties and a dramatic end for villain Reiss Colwell(Jonny Freeman), who met his demise when a bathtub fell on him. Meanwhile, fans are left wondering about the fate of beloved character Martin Fowler (James Bye) after he was seen with crushed legs at the end of the episode, following his confession of love to ex Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner).
