George had to have a brain scan and tests to find out the cause of his collapse, with his family oblivious to the fact he has been fighting in illegal boxing matches.
However, ex-wife Cindy is aware of what he’s been doing, and when she arrived at the hospital to support daughters Gina and Anna, she struggled to keep a lid on what she knew.
The four women spoke in the hospital corridor about George, but some EastEnders viewers were too distracted by a sign behind Cindy’s head to concentrate.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one wrote: “Homage to the scenery / design team of #Eastenders for Cindy The Life Saving Poo!”

Another added: “How are we meant to take tonight’s #EastEnders when they’re worrying about George in front of a ‘Life Saving Poo’ poster?!”
Indeed, the poster behind Cindy was an NHS advertisement promoting bowel cancer screenings with big words saying ‘Life Saving Poo’.
Unfortunately George was given bad news by the doctor after the scan, as he was told: “I can see from the scan that we do have some evidence of prior damage – that isn’t surprising for a former boxer.
“The most likely cause would be Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy. It’s a brain condition linked to repeated blows to the head.

“It can lead to memory problems and other complications but it can only be diagnosed post mortem.”
She went on to explain that there were more recent changes – George’s illegal fights – had caused further issues.

“One more bad knock and this could be fatal,” she warned him.
George was forced to come clean to his family – with Cindy also getting it in the neck from Elaine and her daughters when they realised she had known.
He promised there would be no more fighting but after arriving home at the Vic, he spotted the organiser who came to pay him his winnings.
And unfortunately for George, Cindy clocked what was going on and was horrified at George appearing to be agreeing to fight again.
