Bobby Beale strikes again.
If you're an
Eastenders fan and were watching last night's show, you'll know that Bobby Beale attacked his mother Jane with a hockey stick.
As viewers will remember, Bobby killed his sister Lucy last year and his parents, Jane and Ian, covered up for him.
To get back to last night's show, Bobby lashed out at Jane after she stopped him from leaving the home and this resulted in some very violent scenes.
People have complained about the soap's decision to show these scenes before the 9pm watershed.
Beloe are some of the tweets sent by viewers, who mainly expressed a shocked reaction to the violent nature of the episode.
An Eastenders spokesperson told
The Mirror:
“EastEnders is a fictional drama and our millions of regular fans who tune in each week know and expect dramatic storylines.
"However, we are always mindful of our time slot in which we are shown and we ensure all scenes are editorially justified.
"The scenes in question were the crescendo of a long running storyline that has shown Bobby to have previous violent tendencies.
"Viewers will soon see Bobby arrested by Police and he and his family will be facing up to his behaviour in the most serious of ways".
