EastEnders fans have been left scratching their heads over Ian Beale’s latest storyline after the Walford favourite has appeared to vanish from our screens.
We last saw Ian facing attempted murder charges following a prison fight with Gray Atkins, only for him to disappear from the action afterwards.
After killer Gray and his nan, Sheila’s attempts to get Chelsea’s son, Jordan, out of the country fell flat, Gray lashed out at Ian.
He went for him with a sharpened toothbrush, and in the scuffle, Ian accidentally stabbed Gray with the makeshift weapon in self-defence.

Where has Ian vanished to in EastEnders?
The last time we saw Ian on screen, his lawyer told him to get some rest before his police interview.
Ian panicked that he would have extra time added onto his 8-month sentence. He’s currently serving time for running over Jordan while under the influence of alcohol.
Worried, Ian asked his brief if he could call his mum. But he was told to prepare himself for the following day and left alone in his cell.
However, that was more than 2 weeks ago, and Ian hasn’t been seen since.
