Cindy Beale schemes for her share as George sells Spanish bar in EastEnders
She wants what's hers.
Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) began yet another scheme in tonight's EastEnders (26th September), as she vowed to fight for her share of her ex George Knight's (Colin Salmon) Marbella bar.
George has found a buyer for the place, and has just returned from a trip to Spain to arrange the deal. But Cindy was initially none the wiser as she sought cash for a new Beale business.
After a row with potential investor Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry), Cindy went knocking on Phil Mitchell's (Steve McFadden) door.
Phil was amused, knowing Cindy too well as he reminded her of her past - including the time she hired a hitman on ex-husband Ian (Adam Woodyatt), who she has now inexplicably reunited with!
But when Ian found out about Cindy's chat with Phil, he stormed over to stop Cindy, and that was that.
Furious that Ian didn't want to be in business with his ex-stepdad-turned-bully Phil, Cindy was soon distracted by upset son Peter (Thomas Law).
Peter had been rejected by half-sister Gina Knight (Francesca Henry) when he tried to support her during a run-in with Vinny Panesar (Shiv Jalota), so Cindy visited Gina at The Vic.

As Gina revealed that her boyfriend in Marbella had been cheating on her, Cindy got protective as she comforted her daughter. Cindy urged Gina to trust Peter, who may not be perfect, but simply wanted to be her big brother.
Warmed by what she had heard, Cindy's other daughter Anna Knight (Molly Rainford) told Cindy about the sale of dad George's bar.
Cindy then returned home to a sulking Ian, and announced that she had been the one to set up the Marbella bar, so she was going to claim her share of the proceeds!
But will Cindy's quest be successful, or might she only end up hurting her girls, despite genuinely wanting to win them round?
