George Knight (portrayed by Colin Salmon) was reunited with his adoptive parents, Gloria (Elizabeth Counsell) and Eddie (Christopher Fairbank) Knight earlier in the year.
Although he may have been keen to know what the pair have been up to, George's daughter Gina (Francesca Henry) was not as happy to see her grandparents once again as she maintains a distant and tense relationship with Eddie.
The character's constant micro-aggressions directed as George and his daughter, particularly the colour of her skin hairstyle, didn't sit well with Gina and she tried to make her father see sense.
Secrets began to unfold when George first found out his parents weren't Jamaican, as he'd been led to believe for several years, but were actually West African migrants who had given him up.

Gina didn't need to do too much work to make George realise that Eddie was dangerous as it was later revealed he had killed an African man.
To make matters worse, Eddie's victim was said to be George's biological father who had been hoping to take the then-teenager back from the Knights.
Coming up next week on BBC One, George is struggling to keep all these secrets to himself, particularly as Eddie is due to stand trial for the murder of his father, Henry Kofi Asare.
Aware that he isn't feeling like himself, Gina tries to cheer George up ahead of Eddie’s trial and books a family holiday to Jamaica on her credit card.

Sadly, George dismisses the idea as he has been concealing the truth about their heritage, leaving Gina stunned at this outburst.
In later scenes, Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) convinces George to tell their daughters Anna (Molly Rainford) and Gina the truth about his ancestry.
But Gina soon pleads for the family to visit Jamaica explaining she’s spent five grand on flights.
What will George say?
Will he accept the trip or tell his family the truth?
Viewers will remember that Eddie murdered Henry when his wife Gloria begged him to stop the latter from taking George away from them.
EastEnders gives a huge shout out to The Bill as secret murder is revealed
"He did it because I love you... because I didn't want to say goodbye", Gloria admitted in recent scenes of the long-running show, while Eddie and George were going head to head in The Queen Vic.
"I couldn't let you go, it was my fault", she added.
And while Gina knew what kind of person her grandfather was, Anna was still unaware of his ways and later learned that Eddie's behaviour was racist.
