EastEnders fans are convinced that Jane Beale is going to make an explosive return to Walford.
In last night’s episode, Masood Ahmed revealed he had invited Ian Beale’s ex-wife to the opening of their new restaurant.
Ian went mad, understandably so after he was left by Jane when Max Branning blackmailed her into leaving Walford.
But viewers are sure that the mention of Jane and the prospect of her return means actress Laurie Brett will make her comeback to Albert Square.
One fan wrote: “Are they signposting Jane’s return, talking about Masood inviting her to the opening?”

A second added: “Yes Masood, nicely done. We need Jane back on the square.”
A third wrote: “Yes Massood! Well done for trying to get Jane to return!
“Ian clearly has no care for her now even though he knows the full max truth! Ian is a fully deluded old [expletive]!”
Another added: “OMG OMG yes please let Jane come to the opening of the restaurant! Please!!!!”
Last year actress Laurie revealed that she always knew she would be leaving the soap.
She said: “I’ve loved every minute of playing Jane. To return to EastEnders with such a huge storyline was an absolute gift.

“However, what I have known from the start is that with the soap gods watching us at all times, there is only so long before things go full circle.
“It’s been hard keeping the secret but the storyline has been great to play out and I have loved every minute of it.”
More recently Laurie insisted she had no plans to return yet, but left the door open for any potential comeback.
