Why Isn't EastEnders On BBC IPlayer Today And When Can You Watch The Next Episode?

Read more: Found here

EastEnders fans are facing a longer wait than usual to find out what happens next after last night's shock shooting episode.

Usually, the new episode is available for fans to watch early on BBC iPlayer the morning that it is due to air on BBC One at 7.30 pm. However, today's episode (Wednesday, September 3) is missing from iPlayer, meaning fans will have to wait for the drama to unfold on BBC One tonight instead.

Fans of the show will know that this usually happens when something big is about to be revealed, and the episode is held back so that everyone can watch the drama unfold at the same time.

Last night's epsiode of EastEnders saw Ravi and Jack fighting over a gun that had been passed around the Square, only to end up back in Ravi's possession when he broke into Jack's house during Yolande and Patrick's wedding and stole it back.

He happened to be caught by an unsuspecting Denise, who arrived home just in time to see him escaping out of the back door, and Jack was fuming to learn his rival had been in his home.

Now, we don't know who got shot, if anyone at all - but the looks on Ravi and Jack's faces hinted there is plenty of drama to come.

And with both Zoe and Kat arguing in the market at the time, they were most definitely in the firing line.
