The BBC has released brand new images for tonight\u2019s EastEnders<\/a> (5th April) offering a first look at another eventful episode, as Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) and Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) end up in a bar brawl at the Queen Vic.<\/p>\n

After Linda returned last night for Tina\u2019s (Luisa Bradshaw-White) funeral<\/a>, she soon recognised Janine as the woman who turned up at her mum\u2019s pub before the new year and persuaded her to divorce husband Mick (Danny Dyer).<\/p>\n

Viewers will remember that in true Janine style, she schemed to push Linda out of the picture<\/a> so she could claim Mick for herself \u2013 and her plotting worked like a dream when a vulnerable Linda succumbed to her alcoholism before dumping Mick.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Janine has worked her charms on Mick as he relied on her support after discovering that Tina had been murdered by evil Gray Atkins (Toby-Alexander Smith). While it seems that Janine has genuine feelings for Mick \u2013 and he quite likes her too \u2013 her malicious meddling could be exposed now that Linda is back.<\/p>\n

When Linda tried to tell Mick what Janine did to her, he was too overcome with grief to pay attention \u2013 given that they were in the middle of the funeral service! When Janine stepped in to comfort an emotional Mick, Linda stormed out, but EastEnders has promised there\u2019s more to come from this new rivalry.<\/p>\n
