Ben Mitchell might be in peril next week when a worried Halfway plots to get rid of him in EastEnders.
After outing Halfway to himself in a cruel scene on Friday night, Halfway was left distraught that his sexuality secret would soon be exposed.
His terror is so bad that he turns to his villainous brother Stuart for help.
And with Stuart desperate to redeem himself in his brother’s eyes and rebuild their fractured relationship, he readily agrees.
And later when he spots his brother rowing with Ben, Stuart decides to take action.

He has previously tortured Tina Carter and waged a disturbing campaign of terror against her entire family.
Stuart even framed Mick Carter for a crime to get him sent to prison where he arranged for his life to be made a living hell.
But more recently viewers have seen a softer side to him with all the help he has tried to give Bex Fowler the support she needed through her pill addiction and stress-related breakdown.
But with Ben being more than a match for Stuart, if he finds out what Halfway asked then he could take revenge himself.

Things are made even more complicated when later in the week Halfway sees a different side to Ben when he finds him in his late love Paul Coker’s old bedroom drinking alone.
