The episode is making way for BBC comedy series Ghosts’ Christmas special at 7.45pm, as well as Call the Midwife on any 8.45pm.
Fans will also have to wait a bit longer to see the aftermath of the episode, as it will be airing at 8.25pm, nearly an hour after its normal slot.
But luckily, EastEnders will be back to normal on Wednesday and Thursday before an extra episode will be aired Friday, December 29, at 7.30pm.
