EastEnders has kicked off an intriguing new storyline tonight (October 30), as Jean Slater received some news that looked great on the surface, but might turn

out to be a Halloween nightmare.

In the latest episode, Jean received a letter that told her she has money in her pension she previously didn’t know about.

“Must be from that secretarial job I did before I met Brian,” she pondered while talking to boyfriend Harvey Monroe.

“I know it’s not much to some people, but I have never had that much money in my whole life,” she beamed as she revealed she had £12,000 in her pension fund, with the potential for more.

Calling up the financial company, Jean handed over her national insurance number and was told that his colleague could give her advice on how to grow the money quickly. She was told she could invest in a tea plantation and would receive money back every month as “invisible income”.

Is Jean being scammed, and if so, can her friends and family help her realise that before it’s too late?

Elsewhere in the episode, Jean apologised to Harvey for how she recently took all of her anger and her upset on him.

The two reconciled, but were interrupted when Kojo Asare came around with a present of biscuits. Harvey quickly made an excuse to leave and went to see Kathy Beale.

Over a cup of tea, the two agreed that they wouldn’t repeat the kiss they shared, although Harvey wanted to come clean to Jean about it, Kathy told him not to cause any drama.

Later on, he told her he had changed his mind. Although Kathy looked happy about it, it was clear she’d caught feelings for him.

Meanwhile, Suki made a deal with Nish Panesar, but it backfired on her spectacularly in some sinister scenes.
