Tonight’s episode of EastEnders (Friday, June 13 on BBC One – streaming now on iPlayer) saw George Knight end his marriage to Elaine after she revealed that she’d cheated on him in a one night stand – but is Colin Salmon leaving the soap?
Tensions between George and Elaine were at a high after Junior revealed that George had spent Christmas night with his ex (no, not that one, for once). According to George, he’d rejected Sabrina’s attempt at a kiss, but that didn’t matter to Elaine.
Fed up of George’s constant lies, she kicked him out. Later, having second thoughts, she went looking for him – only to spot him sharing a hug with Cindy on the Albert balcony. Seeking advice from ex-husband Drew, Elaine was spurred on to cheat herself – and fell into bed with another man.

Unable to contain her guilt, Elaine came clean to George tonight. Shocked by his wife’s betrayal, George ended their marriage. Packing his bags, he broke the news to Gina, and left The Vic.
This makes for an uncertain future for George – as the pub is owned by Elaine and Linda. Will he be sticking around in Walford, or does an exit beckon for George Knight?
