Many thanks for all your votes in last week's poll which asked 'Is Luke the secret brother of Carla?'

Quite staggeringly, just under half of you (49%) voted 'yes', while the remaining half of you were split between 'I'm not sure yet' (28%) and 'no way' (23%).

While Luke's (Craig Kelly) true motive for being in Weatherfield - and possibly his true identity - remains to be seen, I do know that he has some good storylines coming up over the next few months, especially May going into June.

OK, so moving on to the next poll of the week.

Is Ricky really Tiffany's father?



Cast your minds back to the episode last month which saw Bianca (Patsy Palmer) receive the DNA test results. She was a bag of nerves when she opened the letter, before a sense of shock (and possibly puzzlement) dawned across her face when she eventually did. And let's not forget that the flame-haired loudmouth was worried sick about doing the test in the first place.

Then when Ricky asked if he was the father, Bianca simply nodded. Did the human plum Ricky Butcher not think to ask to see the results? Nope, he happily accepted his duties as a father to Tiff (Maisie Smith) and carry on as normal. However, neither Tiff's supposed half-sister Whitney (Shona McGarty) nor Ricky's son Liam (James Forde) has any idea about Tiff's true paternity.

This isn't the first question mark over Bianca's offspring, either. Last year, little Morgan's (Devon Higgs) paternity was thrown into doubt by the casting of Chris Coghill as paedophile Tony King. Bianca subsequently confirmed that Tony was only his adoptive son, since Morgan was conceived as a result of a one-night stand with an unknown lover.

By 'eck, Bianca don't 'alf get around, don't she?

Anyway, have your say using the poll panel below and I'll be back next week with the results! Oh, and if you missed it, click here to see the second official EastEnders trail for wedding week...
