'EastEnders' Syed faces a big dilemma - Pictures, spoilers

Published Tuesday, Oct 11 2011, 00:01 BST | By Daniel Kilkelly | 6 comments
EastEnders' Syed Masood faces an impossible dilemma in next week's episodes as he finds himself torn between his happy life with Christian and his desire to spend time with his baby daughter Yasmin.

As revealed last week, Amira (Preeya Kalidas) tells Syed that she's happy for him to see Yasmin when they come face-to-face again later this week, but she makes it clear that Christian is to have no contact with the child.

Syed initially promises Christian (John Partridge) that he wants both of them to have access to Yasmin or neither of them, but his resolve begins to crumble when he gets a proper introduction to the baby - as seen in the picture which was released on Sunday.

The next day, Syed (Marc Elliott) finds it impossible to ignore his fatherly instincts and heads off for a secret meeting at the park with Amira and Yasmin, lying to Christian by telling him that he needs to see his solicitor.

As Syed and Amira spend time together, the atmosphere is pleasant despite their turbulent history, but the mood changes when Syed asks about the possibility of regular access, prompting Amira to repeat her vow that Christian will not see Yasmin.

Soon afterwards, Syed makes it clear that he wants to contribute financially to Yasmin's upbringing and when Amira then asks a passer-by to take a picture of the three of them, it seems that she could still be desperately holding out misguided hope for a future with Syed.

Once his meeting with Amira is over, Syed heads home with the intention of telling Christian where he's really been, but he's stopped in his tracks when he walks through the door and finds Roxy there.

Realising that it's not the right time for his confession, Syed keeps hold of the secret, but is he asking for more trouble by keeping it under wraps? And will there come a point where he has to choose between access to Yasmin and a future with Christian?
