EastEnders fans left baffled over Bobby's blunder as he misses Cindy Beale clue

EastEnders fans were left both baffled and frustrated on Tuesday's episode as Bobby Beale failed to spot a major Cindy Beale clue ahead of the iconic character's return. Anna and Gina Knight remain none the wiser about their mother's true identity. All they know is that their mum is a lady called Rose Knight, who married their father George.

However, Rose is actually Cindy Beale, who of course has a huge history with the Square. She was given the name Rose after being put in witness protection due to an incident in prison, and now she wants to head back to Walford. During Tuesday's episode, Anna secretly met with a private investigator to share information about her mum’s disappearance, handing over a locket.

The silver locket had a key clue on it as the date, 9.12.93, was engraved on the back, which is of course the date Cindy's twins, Lucy and Peter Beale, were born on 9th December 1993. During the meeting with the private investigator, Bobby showed up and held the locket in his hand. However, he failed to spot the date and the significance despite the fact it is his siblings' birth date. Fans will recall that Bobby's dad, Ian Beale, welcomed the twins with Cindy during their marriage from 1989 to 1997.

Taking to Twitter, one person said: "Bobby didn’t recognise the date on the locket #EastEnders" with an embarrassed emoji. A different account put: "Bobby has seen the necklace! Certainly is a special piece of jewellery…..will he possibly look closer at it sometime and connect the dots? #EastEnders." Another follower wrote: "Oh Bobby take a closer look at that locket #Eastenders!" with a different fan adding: "How has Bobby not clocked the date on the necklace? #EastEnders."

Later in the episode, a guilty Anna decided to call off the search for her mum, but her private detective calls and revealed he's had a positive lead in his search. Does this spell a return for Cindy to Walford, or will we have to wait a little bit longer to see Michelle Collins back on our screens?

It comes as Molly Rainford, who plays Anna, revealed what makes her character want to search for her mum after all this time. "Anna has a lot of conversations with Freddie and Bobby about finding people in their families and I think their curiosity to find their loved ones massively plays a part in Anna wanting to find her mum. That idea of having nothing to lose, in the sense of if she doesn’t find her then she’s no worse off, but if she does, she’ll get more information about herself and her identity. I think that’s the thing that overrides it and persuades her to reach out to the investigator," she said.

"She definitely feels guilty. Anna is selfless and I think this whole situation of trying to find her mum is quite out of character as she has never gone against her family before. I think it just shows how important it is to her as she definitely feels so guilty because she knows what has happened in the past and what the family went through."
