BBC EastEnders’ Jay feared dead in accident horror as his family disown him over drugs

EastEnders is lining up scary scenes next week as Jay Brown is feared dead in a horror accident after he is disowned by his family for his drug taking.

Soap watchers will recall that Jay has been taking drugs recently and spending time with escort Nadine as he continues to struggle with the death of his wife Lola Pearce. Things have got so bad that Jay was even arrested last week for possession of drugs after a concerned Callum Highway contacted the police.

In upcoming scenes, Jay wakes after a night filled with booze and drugs to which Billy Mitchell soon senses something is wrong and heads to Jay, who confesses to taking drugs, but he keeps quiet about Nadine. Billy is heartbroken by Jay’s turmoil and attempts to rally the family together for a meet in The Vic.

However, things soon go from bad to worse when Ben Mitchell reveals all about Nadine unaware that Lexi is listening to which the youngster reels and abruptly leaves as the family follow her, shunning Jay. ‌Later, Jay desperately tries to make amends but Ben and Callum shut him out, wanting to protect Lexi.

After feeling rejected by his family, Jay gets a dealer’s number off Ravi and picks up more drugs before Gina finds him at the car lot to confiscate them and offers him a bed for the night at The Vic. Gina convinces Jay to head to No.29B where they put a plan into action to speak to Lexi. However, Ben and Billy are reluctant, but once inside, Jay finally has an honest conversation with Lexi.

However, things go from bad to worse later in the week when Jay drinks himself into oblivion before George kicks him out after finding drugs in his belongings and Linda bars him. Jay bumps into Keanu and the pair almost fight, unaware that Sharon is watching.

Later, Jay is overcome with emotion whilst looking at Lola’s things before Ben and Gina find him unconscious on the sofa having taken more drugs. Billy is disgusted at Jay and a huge row erupts between the pair to which Billy orders Jay out of their lives for good.

Feeling heartbroken, Jay decides to drive to Margate against Gina’s wishes. Things take a worrying turn later in the week when the police arrive at The Vic looking for Jay’s next-of-kin as it is revealed that Jay has been in an accident…

Billy, Ben and Callum are horrified to learn that Jay has been in an accident but the police refuse to give them any details about whether he is alive as none of them are his next-of-kin. Is Jay okay and has he survived the accident?
