Following success of series one and more recently series two, a third series of the online drama EastEnders: E20 has been commissioned.

Producer Deborah Sathe said: "We are thrilled with the success of the first two series and have already started to storyline the third. Be prepared for a few familiar faces, a couple of new ones and a lot of fireworks."

Meanwhile, series two is building to its exciting conclusion. Don't miss the latest episodes, premiering on the E20 site Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8pm, followed by a ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Three screening at 8.30pm the following Monday.
