Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) and his mother Kathy (Gillian Taylforth) had an emotional reunion on tonight’s episode of EastEnders.
Viewers of the show will know that things nearly ended in tragedy when Ian stepped out in front of a car on the way to meet Kathy.
He was rushed to hospital and although his wife Jane had reservations about his reunion with Kathy, they finally got the chance to see each other after 15 years.
Of course, Twitter users had lots to say about the long-awaited reunion…

I’m sorry but I don’t understand why/ how Ian’s mum is the same age as him. #eastenders

“What kind of mum makes her kids think she’s dead”. I don’t know Jane, which kind covers up the murder of one child by another? #eastenders — Colin Wright (@colinwright1959) October 8, 2015
Seriously Jane needs to shut up! #EastEnders #TeamKathy
