Eastenders’ favourite Ian Beale is set to feature in a special Children in Need episode of the hit soap and it's due to be downright spooky! It has been reported that Ian will be visited by some of the most-loved (and indeed most-hated) characters from down through the years, with many being brought back from the dead especially for the special episode. According to reports, he will be ‘visited’ by murdered Lucy Beale, Pat Butcher, Cindy Beale and Kathy Mitchell. “We are getting some of the show’s most iconic names back for one night only,” a source of the show told The Sun. “It’s going to be historic." “All the characters have a link to Ian Beale and they are going to come back to haunt him in scenes that will feature his past and present. This is going to be an absolute must-watch evening of TV for any Eastenders fan.” Meanwhile although the soap have not fully confirmed details, a spokesperson told Digital Spy: “We don’t want to confirm the exact details just yet as we don’t want to spoil the surprise, but this is one Children in Need Eastenders viewers will not want to miss.” The special episode of the soap will be aired on November 14th at 7pm.
