However, EastEnders viewers were gobsmacked when she was charged a hefty fee for a chocolate bar.

The owner of Stacey's Baps (Lacey Turner) was at the corner shop to talk about Kheerat Panesar when she decided to treat herself.

But the price of the chocolate was deemed too high, even coming from devious Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal).

Stacey was charged a whopping £1.50 for her bar of chocolate and it didn't take long for BBC One viewers to rage on Twitter.

"1.50 for bar chocolate…stick em up!", one viewer penned alongside a video of a woman robbing someone at gunpoint.

Another echoed: "£1.50 for a single bar of chocolate?! That shop should be called 'Dick Turpin'!" while a third soap fan fumed: "£1.50 for a bar of chocolate, £2.80 or so for a bap with the full works....the pricing is all wrong in this place!!"

But the complaints quickly came to an end, as did Stacey's conversation with Suki as her husband Nish walked into the shop.

Tension arose and Suki's behaviour quickly changed, prompting Stacey to grow concerned.

In later scenes, Stacey shared her worries with Eve Unwin (Heather Peace), wondering if Suki needed help.

Suki has been having a hard time in the Square, particularly after she was attacked by Ranveer Gulati.

The assault led to his death, landing Suki into severe trouble.

But there was more drama elsewhere in Walford.

After a nasty fall at the tube station, a pregnant Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) was taken to hospital.

Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) spotted the commotion from afar and decided to accompany her, putting their differences aside.

In doing so, Linda missed an important appointment with Murray who showed up at the Vic.

The probation officer let Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) know Linda's decision could have dire consequences.
