Explosive EastEnders trailer offered the first look at Sean Slater's comeback to Albert Square after 10 years.
The heartthrob (Robert Kazinsky) will return after receiving a frantic phone call from his beloved sister Stacey about their mum Jean's ovarian cancer diagnosis.
Although Sean had been in touch with Stacey (Lacey Turner), it has been 10 years since the former resident has been in touch with his mother (Gillian Wright).

In closing scenes, the Albert Square hunk could be seen looking into the mirror of his car.
Drama ensues when Kat (Jessie Wallace) unearthed the letter confirming Jean had ovarian cancer, as seen in the new trailer.
In the trailer, Jean said: 'I don't want chemo. I don't want hospitals. I don't want prodding. I don't want people feeling sorry for me. I don't want to be sick.
'I don't want people telling me what to do. I want to be normal.'

The character of Sean was first introduced to the soap in December 2005 but Rob didn't make his first appearance in the show until August
