EastEnders Shock: George Knight Makes a Risky Call as Kojo and Harry Escape Okie’s Grip

EastEnders has delivered another nail-biting instalment, as George Knight (Colin Salmon) makes a daring move that could have devastating consequences for his family. The latest episode, now streaming on BBC iPlayer, sees Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho) and Harry Mitchell (Elijah Holloway) finally escape from Okie’s (Aayan Ibikunle Shoderu) clutches — but their freedom comes at a dangerous price.

The Aftermath of a Dangerous Deal

The chaos began when Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) ordered Okie to shut down their drug operation and release Harry from captivity. But with Ravi out of the country, Okie ignored those orders and continued to drug Harry, leaving him weak and delirious after days without food.

Meanwhile, Kojo — who had just returned from a car show in Cardiff — was forced back into the operation against his will. His disappearance, along with Harry’s, raised alarm bells for both families back in Walford.EastEnders' Harry to make heartbreaking decision in thrilling Kojo escape  plot

Teddy Comes Clean

Teddy Mitchell (Roland Manookian) was the first to put the pieces together. After returning from Wales and following their trail, he realized something terrible had happened but couldn’t gain access to Kojo’s flat. Desperate, he turned to George and confessed everything — on one condition: that George wouldn’t call the police.

Teddy’s reasoning was simple but heartbreaking. “If the cops get involved, Harry’s finished,” he warned. “And Kojo could be sent back to Ghana.”

A Desperate Rescue

Back at the flat, Kojo managed to find a key that could free Harry. But Harry, barely conscious, urged his friend to flee before Okie returned. “Go,” he begged, “just go.” Moments later, Kojo collapsed from exhaustion but somehow made it to No. 1 George Street to raise the alarm.

When George and Teddy arrived, they found Okie’s gang trying to dump Harry’s lifeless body into a van. But before they could get away, the wail of sirens filled the air. Panicking, Okie’s men dropped Harry in the street and sped off.Kojo looks alarmed in a conversation with Okie in EastEnders

George’s Shocking Decision

As Teddy rushed to his son’s side, Kojo froze, realizing the police were seconds away. “Run,” Teddy urged. “They can’t find you here.” But Kojo didn’t have to wonder who tipped them off — because it was George.

“I’m sorry,” George muttered as police cars flooded the street, his face etched with guilt.

The shocking moment left viewers divided. Was George right to call the police, potentially saving Harry’s life but risking Kojo’s future?

Trouble Ahead for the Knights and Mitchells

The fallout promises to be explosive. With Harry’s condition critical and Okie still on the run, the police investigation could expose more than George ever intended. And if Teddy discovers the full truth behind George’s call, it could ignite a feud that shakes Walford to its core.

One thing is certain — the Knight and Mitchell families will never be the same again.
