There’s a shock coming for George Knight (played by
Colin Salmon) when his estranged son, Junior Knight,
arrives in EastEnders.
George “Junior” Knight, Jr. will be played by Micah
Balfour, who viewers will know from the likes of Emmerdale and Doctor Who.
It’s safe to say the relationship between George and Junior is fraught, with tension spanning decades.
And George himself is in a bad way following the revelations from his adopted parents when they admitted they were paid to take him on. Furthermore, Eddie (Christopher Fairbank) was sent to prison for a historical murder and Gloria (Elizabeth Counsell) died in prison.
So with George in a dark place, you’d think Junior’s arrival would be a happy occasion?
