Tonight on EastEnders, Ian (Adam Woodyatt) is left for dead in a shocking attack at the Queen Vic.
Councillor Beale has steadily been racking up enemies in recent weeks, including Tina (Luisa Bradshaw-White), who has unsuccessfully been attempting to win back the pub for her struggling brother Mick (Danny Dyer).
In tonight's episode, Ian is seen telling her that she will only be able to get the Vic over his dead body - just moments before he is attacked.
