EastEnders fans were all saying the same thing after last night’s episode

Fans just couldn't understand it.

It was all kicking off last night.

EastEnders fans were fuming at their television screens on Tuesday after Linda just stood at the window and watched as Mick was kidnapped.

Viewers were baffled as to why the Queen Vic landlady didn’t try and help him by screaming or calling 999 when she saw the thugs bundling him into the back of a van.

Tuesday night’s episode ended on a dramatic cliffhanger after Mick was grabbed by men in hoods and shoved into the vehicle.

And Linda watched it all unfold from the window in the pub, with her face pressed against the glass.

But fans of the long-running soap were quick to point out she could have done a bit more to help.

Some other viewers were quick to point out that if Linda could see the ambush unfold, other residents of Walford could, too.

After all, it was in broad daylight.

The kidnapping was orchestrated by Aiden, who grew suspicious of the Carters (and Mick, especially) after they found the cash to say the Queen Vic at the last moment.

The evil gangster is convinced that Mick must have been the own to swipe the money in the New Year’s heist – and grabbed the pub landlord to get the truth out of him.
