n upcoming EastEnders episodes, one of the show’s most legendary and well-loved characters is about to embark on an exciting new chapter — and it all begins with a job application.

The job application could bring her a sense of purpose — or lead to yet another round of unforeseen complications that stir up life in the Square.

Whether she lands the job or not, this leap of faith signals a turning point for the character, and it’s bound to have ripple effects across her relationships. One thing is certain: in Walford, change always brings both opportunity and trouble in equal measure.
