EastEnders could be introducing a new character when the BBC soap returns from lockdown.
Fans may finally find out who Sonia Fowler's dad is, and they're not the only ones.
Sonia has never known or met her long-lost father, ever since she made her Walford debut back in 1993.
He is believed to be Terry Cant, who her mother Carol had a one-night stand with.
Natalie Cassidy has played the character since she arrived, with Sonia just a child when her and her siblings rocked up in Albert Square with Carol.
She and the siblings were raised by brother Billie's father Alan Jackson, while Sonia's dad was never known to her.
Next week, the character will decide now is the time to track down her real dad.
Spoilers for the BBC soap confirmed the character will search for him, after growing lonely.
Her teenage daughter Bex recently left Walford to go travelling.
Meanwhile, her romance with ex Martin didn't end up working out amid his blossoming fling with Ruby Allen.
Feeling alone, Sonia decides to look into tracking down her father.
But will she manage to find him, or will she end up finding more than she bargained for?
The scenes will air just as EastEnders prepares to go off air.
The BBC soap halted filming in March due to the coronavirus pandemic, and has yet to resume filming.
While cast and crew will be back on set towards the end of June, they have now run out of episodes.
This means Sonia's search may not be shown, amid reports of a time jump being included when episodes pick back up again - to get back into the correct timeline.
EastEnders may not return until September, so perhaps Sonia's search will continue then - or might she find her dad amid lockdown?
EastEnders airs Mondays at 8pm, and Tuesdays at 7:30pm on BBC One.
