A major character returned on tonight’s Eastenders

'Tiffany is back'.

Tiffany Butcher returned to Eastenders during tonight's show and although many fans knew her comeback was on the horizon, they still couldn't get over how much she has changed. When Tiffany left Albert Square (albeit a brief reappearance last year), she was in primary school so it stands to reason that viewers were a little shocked by how much she's grown up since.

Was everyone else still expecting Tiffany would still look like this???? #EastEnders pic.twitter.com/jTqxow5lra

Most people were delighted to see her back on the popular soap and some even likened her to her on-screen mother Bianca, played by Patsy Palmer.

As regular viewers will know, Tiffany's sister Whitney was planning to leave the Square for a new start in Wakefield but these plans might have to change. Tiffany says there's no ulterior motive behind her decision to visit but Whitney is of another opinion entirely. Stay tuned because this week's remaining episodes might just reveal the real reason behind the teenager's return.
