EastEnders fans were left devastated as Lola Pearce (Danielle Harold) prepared for surgery to remove her brain tumour.
Lola was informed only last week that she had a cancerous tumour growing inside her brain and was warned by doctors that she had to stay in hospital until the day of her operation.
Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick) spent time with his girlfriend prior to the surgery, assuring her that he will be right there when she wakes up.

But as she was preparing for the operation, fans picked up on the fact that Lola was wearing bright pink nail varnish, something that is not allowed when someone has surgery.
Taking to Twitter to point this out, one wrote: “#EastEnders isn’t Lola supposed to have her nail polish removed before surgery?”
Another added: “Oh #EastEnders you could have at least taken Lola’s nail varnish off its a definite no no when having an operation.”
While a third echoed: “Need to take Lola’s nail varnish off before surgery It’s the small details #EastEnders.”
At the end of Tuesday’s episode (November 1), Lola was taken into the operating room as Jay waited outside, displaying a heart sign with his hand as they locked eyes through the window.
The couple only got back together merely days before Lola discovered her tumour, leaving fans devastated at the scenes they shared in tonight’s episode.
Taking to social media once again with their thoughts, one user wrote: “Jay and Lola saying I love you and jay making a heart against the window before she went into surgery [broken heart emoji].”
“Lola & Jay scenes tonight are just breaking my heart. Especially this week,” echoed a second.
“Lola and jay talking about the future they’ll never have 🙁 #EastEnders,” added another.
While a fourth tweeted: “OMG that final Lola/Jay moment literally just before she went to surgery – Totally heartbreaking or what seriously?”
As Lola’s surgery continues, Jay refuses to go home as he and Billy wait for news.
Will the surgery be successful?
