A new character arrived on Eastenders last night and viewers couldn’t cope

So, Mark Fowler Junior appeared on Eastenders last night and viewers pretty much lost their collective sh*t.

Why? A number of reasons really. Mark is aesthetically pleasing, he reminded many of Grease's Danny Zuko, he wore a jacket similar to his uncle Mark's trademark leather one, and his arrival will spell mayhem for Grant Mitchell. For anyone who doesn't know, Mark is Grant's 'secret' son after he had a thing with Mark's mother, Michelle Fowler, back in the day. Although Grant and Mitchelle weren't exactly bosom buddies, they had a brief fling 21 years ago. So anyway, Mark played by Ned Porteous, rocked up on Albert Square and predictably, Twitter went into meltdown.

Ok Mark Fowler in eastenders is H O T
