EastEnders spoilers: Alfie Moon kidnapped by balaclava-wearing gunman

2022-09-25

EastEndersfans may have just welcomed backShane Richie’s Alfie Moon, but his return could be short-lived as new photos from from the set show that Alfie has managed to find himself at the wrong end of a gun.

Alfiemade his return to the squaredetermined to win back ex-wife Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace), despite her engagement to Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden).

As the wedding approached, both Kat and Phil had exes confess their love and try to convince against the marriage.

And while Kat and Phil’s wedding was ultimately called off, the pair remain together, planning a second wedding day – one that ideally won’t be interrupted by anyone’s ex…

While fans may find themselves rooting for the iconic duo of Kat and Alfie to get together, it seems that Alfie’s to win her back may be cut short.

Photos from the set of the long-running soap show Shane filming intense scenes with other actors, including one in a mask who is armed with a gun.

No specific plot details have been revealed, but it looks like the situation may put the former landlord's life at risk.

In the scenes being filmed, it appears that Alfie is ordered into a car by a group of men, at least one of whom is seen holding a gun.

It remains unclear where the character is being forced to drive, or if he’ll return from this journey alive.

The filming of these dramatic scenes comes after viewers noticed a mysterious phone call Alfie made not long after he came back, which some fans assumed was to a secret girlfriend, wife or family.

Shane, 58, haspreviously opened up about his returnto the popular TV soap.

The actor said: “It’s an absolute honour and privilege to be asked back to my TV home of Albert Square. I’m looking forward to catching up with some old cast-mates and meeting some new ones.

“The new exec producer, Chris Clenshaw, has been instrumental in wanting to bring Alfie Moon back with some wonderful storylines… and who am I to say no?! I can’t wait.”

The sentiment was echoed by executive producer Chris Clenshaw who couldn’t speak more highly of Shane’s impact on the show.

He said: “Shane Richie created one of the most iconic, loveable and most memorable characters in soap, and to welcome him back to Walford is an absolute pleasure.

“A lot’s happened since Alfie’s been away from the Square, but wherever his floral shirts go you can expect fun, frolics and, of course, the odd porky-pie.

“We’re over the moon to have him home.”
