EastEnders' Johnny Carter makes death discovery in early iPlayer release

EastEnders spoilers follow from Thursday's episode, which is available to watch now on BBC iPlayer. This article contains storyline details that some viewers may prefer to avoid until the episode has aired on TV.

EastEnders' Linda Carter confessed everything to her son Johnny the show's latest episode.

Johnny has become increasingly worried about Linda since returning to the Square last week, and is determined to get to the root of her problems.

Johnny currently believes that Dean's presence in the Square is the biggest source of Linda's struggles and has teamed up with Ben and Callum to get the villain out of the way.

Thursday's visit to Walford (February 15), which is already available to watch on BBC iPlayer, saw Johnny pursue a civil case against Dean.

Johnny's plans were thwarted when Callum told him about Linda’s 'confession' before Christmas.

He also learned, upon making amends with Gina, that Linda's drinking ramped up around Christmas and not when Dean showed up.

Dean was initially sceptical over Gina's sudden change of heart, but agreed to go out with her anyway.

During the 'date', Gina helped Johnny swipe Dean's phone, allowing him to delete all the recordings from the device.

When Linda saw the commotion, she forced herself to go in, even though she was palpably horrified about the idea of being near Keanu's body.

During an argument between Dean and Johnny, a glass got smashed, causing Linda to cut her hand while trying to clean up.

Linda reacted hysterically over seeing blood on the floor, leaving Johnny unsettled by her behaviour.

Back at The Vic, Johnny finally recognised that this wasn't just about Dean and refused to give up until Linda told him what was really going on.

Johnny insisted that he knew something happened at Christmas and questioned if it was about Mick's disappearance last year.
