EastEnders executive producer Ben Wadey has revealed if we can expect Tanya Branning (Jo Joyner) to return after her ex-husband Max Branning (Jake Wood) made a bombshell return to the soap after four years.

Over the past two years, the soap has seen the iconic Branning family expand. First, we saw the return of Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) and her cousin Penny (Kitty Castledine) in 2024. Now, in 2025, we've had Oscar Branning (Pierre Counihan-Moullier) and most recently, the legendary Max make an explosive comeback.

Max's shock return this week revealed that he was in a relationship with Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) and he had given her £5,000 to help track down her long-lost son.

With both Tanya's son and ex-husband now back on the scene, surely it would only be right to bring her back and sort out her chaotic family.

During an EastEnders press event, Wadey touched upon the possibility of Joyner returning as the beloved Branning matriarch.

"We've just given you Max and Zoe, let's enjoy that!" he joked. "I mean, Jo is amazing, isn't she? We've also got an amazing cast, brilliant performers that all deserve and need stories."

While it looks like Tanya won't be returning anytime soon, we did get an update on her whereabouts when her teenage tearaway son Oscar returned to the Square after eight years.

Tanya moved to Exeter with Oscar in 2013 after her turbulent marriage to Max ended. She has been living there ever since, but Oscar was forced to return to Walford after Tanya kicked him out when his gangster friend tried to petrol bomb their home.

With his on-screen ex-wife nowhere to be seen, Jake Wood has since teased a romantic reunion for one of the soap's most iconic couples.

EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday on BBC One at 7.30pm. Episodes are also released on BBC iPlayer at 6am on the morning they are broadcast.

EastEnders newcomer Pierre Counihan-Moullier, who plays Oscar Branning, had a hilarious question to ask soap legend Adam Woodyatt — and you won't believe what it was.

After the return of Penny Branning (Kitty Castledine) and her cousin Lauren on New Year's Day in 2024, the Branning brood got bigger when Oscar made his comeback after eight years.

Oscar was last seen in 2017 when he visited his dad Max Branning (Jake Wood) on Father’s Day and now the estranged pair are set to be reunited later this year. However, Oscar's return proves that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Much like his father, Oscar has already found himself in trouble with the Walford residents. Although he's just got out of the youth detention centre, Oscar has gone on to accidentally attack Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker), nearly stab his brother-in-law Peter Beale (Thomas Law) and steal a gun.

But while he's being a nightmare for his sister Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa), there was one person in particular who wasn't pleased to see the troublesome teen back in town and that's Ian Beale (Woodyatt).

The pair didn't have the best of starts as Oscar faked a fall at Beale's Plaice to blackmail Ian for money and it doesn't help that his dad also has a turbulent history with the family.

Fortunately though, the pair get on a lot better in real life, so much so that the young actor asked him a shocking question that will have soap fans in disbelief.

At an EastEnders press event, his on-screen sister Jacqueline Jossa revealed that Counihan-Moullier asked Woodyatt how long he'd been on the soap for.

Counihan-Moullier said: "I had my characterisation day with Ben [Wadey] and the writers and producers, because I hadn't watched much of the show," before Jossa jumped in and revealed: "He asked Adam Woodyatt how long he'd been on the show. I was like 'from day one!'"

"He was actually super chill about it," he added.

EastEnders icon Jake Wood has teased that there could be another romance on the cards for one of the soap's most notorious couples — Max Branning and Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner).

The soap dropped a bombshell return this week as Jake Wood returned to our screens as Max Branning after four years.

Max made his shock return at the end of Wednesday's (September 3) episode when Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) answered Zoe's (Michelle Ryan) phone after her daughter had been fatally shot.

Soon enough, more secrets came to the surface in tonight's episode (Thursday, September 4) when it was revealed that Max and Zoe were in a relationship. Max later gave Zoe £5,000 to a dodgy private investigator to help find her son, who she left in the hospital after a traumatic birth.

Despite Zoe commanding Max to stay away, it's not long before Max disobeys her orders and returns to the Square in October.

The legendary womanizer has plenty of unfinished business in Walford, but no doubt one of the messiest of them all is his relationship with former lover and Zoe's cousin, Stacey.

Max's scandalous love affair with daughter-in-law Stacey went down in soap history, and with Max back on the scene, there's a possibility of the former flames reconnecting.

At an EastEnders press event to celebrate Max's return, Wood told What To Watch that there's "undoubtedly" unfinished business with Stacey and how strong their connection is.

He said: "She's on her own and Max is not quite on his own. I suppose her circumstances are... there'll always be a connection with Max and Stacey. So regardless of where they are and who they're with, I think they'll always be an emotional connection between them. They understand each other."

And the possibility of them reuniting after beloved Martin Fowler's (James Bye) death?

"They'll always be connected regardless of what they're doing, whether the timing is always ever right for them to reconnect on that level, and whether they both want to," he teased.

"We all know Lacey Turner is going on an extended break. Will Max and Stacey's paths cross before she goes? You have to just keep watching. I really hope so."

It's the EastEnders comeback we have all been waiting for, but finally, Max Branning is back on our screens.

The shock return came at the end of tonight's episode (Wednesday, September 3) when Kat answered Zoe's phone while her daughter was fighting for her life in the hospital.

While we all knew Jake Wood would be reprising his role as legendary Max, we didn't know exactly when he would be making his comeback; however, fans thought there might be something huge happening in tonight's episode when it didn't land on BBC iPlayer this morning.

The episode opened with Zoe getting shot after Jack and Ravi fought with a gun in the Square. At the end of Tuesday's episode, the pair looked horrified as the shot rang out, only for the credits to roll, and it was only today's episode that revealed it was Zoe who had been caught in the crossfire.

The drama continued as panic set out across Walford, with everyone worried there was a gunman on the loose. Zoe was rushed to hospital and straight into theatre, but not before flashbacks revealed what she has been up to since we last saw her on the Square.

But it wasn't until the very end of the episode that we saw Max calling Zoe's phone.

After finding out Zoe was caught up in trouble, Kat was left scared that Zoe was running from someone who was determined to harm her, and so when Zoe’s phone rang, Kat picked up, wanting answers.

However, with Max staying silent, Kat was unaware of who was on the phone - oblivious that it was someone she knows.

But how does Max know Zoe, and what is their connection? Is Max after Zoe for money? Or do they have a much friendlier relationship?

Luckily, we don't have to wait long to find out, because all will be revealed when EastEnders continues on Thursday on BBC iPlayer at 6 am and BBC One at 7.30 pm.

EastEnders fans are facing a longer wait than usual to find out what happens next after last night's shock shooting episode.

Usually, the new episode is available for fans to watch early on BBC iPlayer the morning that it is due to air on BBC One at 7.30 pm. However, today's episode (Wednesday, September 3) is missing from iPlayer, meaning fans will have to wait for the drama to unfold on BBC One tonight instead.

Fans of the show will know that this usually happens when something big is about to be revealed, and the episode is held back so that everyone can watch the drama unfold at the same time.

Last night's epsiode of EastEnders saw Ravi and Jack fighting over a gun that had been passed around the Square, only to end up back in Ravi's possession when he broke into Jack's house during Yolande and Patrick's wedding and stole it back.

He happened to be caught by an unsuspecting Denise, who arrived home just in time to see him escaping out of the back door, and Jack was fuming to learn his rival had been in his home.

Knowing that he was there for the gun, which Jack had been hiding for Oscar, who had taken it from Harry's hiding place after he was given it by Ravi to get rid of (are you keeping up?!) Jack went to confront Ravi, and the pair ended up fighting in the Square, only for the gun to go off mid-tussle.

Now, we don't know who got shot, if anyone at all - but the looks on Ravi and Jack's faces hinted there is plenty of drama to come. And with both Zoe and Kat arguing in the market at the time, they were most definitely in the firing line.

Zoe came back to the Square in a bid to get her hands on some cash, but instead was tricked by Tommy and reunited with Kat after decades apart. The pair had an emotional reunion which was far from happy, but is their time together about to be cut short?

Who could have been shot, and will they be okay?

One thing is for sure - tonight's episode is definitely not one to be missed!

EastEnders airs Monday to Thursday on BBC One at 7.30pm. Episodes are also usually released on BBC iPlayer at 6am on the morning they are broadcast.

It's the MUST-SEE week of EastEnders (7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings) that viewers have been waiting to see!

Ever since Zoe Slater (played by Michelle Ryan) secretly returned to Walford earlier this Summer, seeking help from family relatives, Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner) and Alfie Moon (Shane Richie), EastEnders viewers have been wondering when she would come face-to-face with her estranged mum, Kat (Jessie Wallace).

As Zoe is reunited with other members of the Slater family, including Mo Harris (Laila Morse), Kat has questions for the daughter she hasn't seen for over 20 years.

But it turns out that Zoe ain't still the same girl who left Walford all those years ago, and things are going to be far from smooth sailing for her and Kat...

"When we met Zoe back in June, we saw she wasn’t in a good place – and was clearly hiding secrets," says Ben Wadey, EastEnders Executive Producer. "She was also insistent that she couldn’t face seeing her mum again. But why?

Why has she shunned Kat for so many years? Since Zoe left, we know their relationship deteriorated until Zoe cut ties completely. I’ve always been fascinated as to why, especially as they left on good terms. We have twenty years of history to explore, and so much has happened to both of them since they were last on screen together.

You’ll have to wait and see what effect the last 20 years have had on her, and what Zoe has been up to during her time away, but what I will say is that she has a lot of secrets waiting to be discovered..."
