EastEnders star Balvinder Sopal has teased fans about the show's upcoming 40th anniversary, promising "high stakes" and "lots of drama." The BBC soap will air a live episode, allowing viewers to influence a key plotline through voting. This marks a new approach for EastEnders, which previously aired live episodes during its 25th and 30th anniversaries. The interactive element will let the audience shape the story in real-time, a first for the series. Sopal, who plays Suki Panesar, discussed the anniversary plans on BBC's The One Show, stating that the cast is also learning about the storyline as it develops. EastEnders has been on air since February 1985.
