EastEnders blunder as part of the studio that viewers are never meant to see appears during soap

EASTENDERS has been caught up in an embarrassing blunder as a part of the studio fans aren't meant to see appeared on screen.

The long-running BBC One soap continued on Thursday night as Jay's spiralling problems were exposed.

His brother Ben Mitchell had discovered he was paying for sex.

The mechanic overheard the conversation in the Vic and discovered the woman bore a striking resemblance to the late Lola Pearce.

However, one eagle-eyed viewer noticed a part of the fictional set that viewers aren't supposed to see during the scene.

A dodgy camera angle exposed the studio's lighting rig over the fake bar counter.

Taking to social media, the EastEnders fan said: "@BBCEastEnders I spot studio lights! Oopsie!"

It seems fans were playing the role of detective as they also appear to have rumbled a steamy new affair plot as Nish Panesar made a bold move against his family's wishes.

The Walford family have been rocked this week by the arrival of Ravi's ex Priya and her daughter Avani, who Ravi had no idea existed.

Priya and Avani have been barely getting by financially, and in tonight's episode, they were seen being evicted from their flat for not paying the rent.

Arriving back in Albert Square with as much as they could carry, Priya hatched a plan which involved Avani sweet talking the family into allowing them to stay.

But things didn't go to plan as Ravi said his daughter could stay but his ex could not.

After she worked her magic on Nish, he informed the rest of the family Priya and Avani would be moving into the house.

EastEnders continues on BBC One and iPlayer.
