Not only can we not imagine Cindy finding Max’s proposal even in the slightest bit romantic, but they have only been dating for a month. Now, this is a couple who like to move fast. They moved in together after only a matter of weeks, after all. But marriage is a big step, and this wouldn’t be the first rodeo for either of them. It is far more likely that this is a red herring from the soap writers, and Max’s bride is likely to be someone else entirely. However, only time will tell… so watch this space! What else happened in EastEnders today? As well as Max's impromptu proposal, Lauren and Mark almost kissed, while Ian was arrested for his hit and run. Ian was arrested for running over Jordan Ian was shocked when the police arrived to question him about Jordan's hit and run, oblivious to the carnage he had caused. A breathalyser test showed he was over the drink-driving limit, and he was taken to the station for questioning. Ian was adamant that it was all a big misunderstanding, until he discovered Jordan was the person he had knocked down. Ian then realised the seriousness of the situation and asked for a solicitor. Later he tried to reason with Jack, who was adamant that he needed to take responsibility for his actions.
