Stacey Slater fears for son Arthur's health

On Thursday's show, meanwhile, fans were delighted after Kush woke up following his cardiac arrest on Tuesday's cliffhanger episode. Taking to Twitter to share their delight, one viewer enthused: "Kush is waking!" while another said: "Kush is awake!!" Others joked about the storyline coinciding with actor Davood Ghadami's participation in Strictly Come Dancing: "Of course Kush is waking up. He's got to get to Strictly rehearsals after this!"

With Davood busy with dance rehearsals over the next few weeks, fans are yet to find out whether Kush will make a full recovery. The 35-year-old, who has been partnered up with newcomer Nadiya Bychkova, previously hinted that his exit could be permanent. He recently told Digital Spy: "No, I won't be taking a break per se, but hopefully it'll be a bit quieter storyline-wise." He added: "Obviously plenty of EastEnders actors have done the show before. I'm hoping to follow in their footsteps, they've all done really well, they've set the bar really high, which can be a bit nervy for me."
