EastEnders’ Bea Pollard causes chaos and vandalises McKlunky’s next week after a tough conversation with Honey Mitchell leaves her with nowhere to live.

“Bea is utterly obsessed with Honey and has essentially stolen her identity with her fraudulent credit card,” begins our Walford insider. “While Honey has been away, Bea stepped into her shoes to become queen of the Mitchell hive. When Honey gives her the boot, Bea doesn’t take it well at all…”

Bea’s overbearing demeanour creates a buzz across Walford, with Linda questioning her old school mate’s motivations during a confrontation at the market. Bea’s behaviour also starts to grate on Honey – she’s already feels out of sorts so after discussing the situation with Billy, Honey concludes that Bea’s time under their roof is up…

“Honey hasn’t been feeling herself and is experiencing symptoms of the menopause,” says our source. “She feels that she needs privacy and peace to get through this tough time and isn’t feeling as though her home is her sanctuary with Bea always hanging around.

“Both she and Billy agree that Bea has outstayed her welcome and it’s time for her to find her own place now that she has a stable job.”

After booking a doctor’s appointment to discuss her menopause, Honey meets for coffee with Bea – and delivers the devastating blow that she wants her pal to move out of No.18.

Furiously reeling from the rejection, Bea bursts into her new workplace McKlunky’s and kicks all the customers out, before totally trashing the place…

“The McKlunky’s diners are brutally ousted from the restaurant by Bea, chicken drumsticks and all,” reveals our insider. “Once alone, emotional Bea grabs the stools and starts throwing them about the place in a frenzy. We wouldn’t count on her passing her probation period…”

When Honey’s son Will discovers Bea’s wake of destruction, he’s horrified, prompting cunning Bea to lie and tell the teenager that she was attacked in a bid to drum up some sympathy.

Meanwhile, Honey is feeling down after her medical appointment, sensing that she received the brush off and her concerns were ignored.

As Bea packs her belongings and prepares to buzz off, she ramps up her sympathy act. Will the Mitchell family take pity on bizarre Bea, or will they see through her?
