EastEnders star Hetti Bywater has revealed that her character Lucy Beale will continue her scheming behaviour until she gets ex-boyfriend Joey Branning back.

It was revealed recently that Lucy would spike best friend Lauren's drink in order to jeopardise her relationship with cousin Joey.

Speaking to Inside Soap, Bywater said: "Lucy's doing whatever she can to make Joey see the bad side of Lauren. Joey has a hold over Lucy, and she wants him.

"Seeing him with Lauren hasn't been easy, and Lucy is thinking only of herself at this point. The long-term consequences for Lauren just don't cross her mind at all."

"When Lucy volunteers to get the drinks in, Lauren insists on an orange juice - so Lucy drops a shot in secretly. She keeps on doing it, and it's not long before Lauren's getting drunk. She starts mouthing off, and Joey's not happy."

Bywater reveals that Lucy will feel no remorse after Joey dumps Lauren, convinced that she has gone behind his back after she gets drunk again.

"Lucy's ecstatic that her plan has worked. And when Joey confronts her about Lauren's accusation, Lucy just denies it, implying that Lauren's got major issues. Joey refuses to believe Lauren, so as far as Lucy's concerned, Lauren is out of the picture - which means she's closer to getting Joey.

"We all know that Lucy has major trust issues, and the only person she wants to get close to is Joey. She never received his full attention when they were an item the first time round, because of his feelings for Lauren - and that's why he's still got such a hold over her at this stage.

"Lucy doesn't deal very well with not getting what she wants, so where Joey is concerned, I think she'll just keep on going until she does!"

EastEnders star Hetti Bywater has suggested that her alter ego Lucy Beale should have more scenes with scheming Janine Butcher.

Viewers know that the two characters both have manipulative sides, and they also share a connection as Janine (Charlie Brooks) is currently the business partner of Lucy's dad Ian.

Bywater told Inside Soap: "It's funny - whenever Charlie Brooks and I are working together, we're really similar. Our characters are quite alike, and we even deliver some of our lines in the same way.

"I'm sure Lucy and Janine would make a pretty formidable pair!"

Next week's EastEnders episodes see Lucy disown Ian (Adam Woodyatt) after he tricks her into signing all of the family businesses back over to him.

Ian takes the drastic step as he needs to find a way to pay back sinister Carl White, who has been threatening him over their debt.

Bywater added: "Lucy definitely wants to get back at her dad, and her spiteful side is bound to emerge. She's so angry and needs to take a step back. Too much damage has been done."

I would love to see Ian get is comeuppance, he is a slimy rat of a man, as for a business man dear lord the chippy you hardly see anyone in it and the cafe too, but no he opening a restaurant. Did he not see what happened to the Indian .. Doesn't care about his daughter, say what you like about her love antics, she had to run the cafe chippy and look after the home and then he cons her out of the business after stealing from her bank account.

EastEnders is preparing to kill off one of its long-running characters.

Lucy Beale will bow out of the BBC soap in spring, spelling the start of a dark new chapter for the Beale family.

Executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins previously hinted that a story to "shock and hopefully make the nation weep" would arrive around Easter time and continue up to the 30-year anniversary in February 2015.

"It will give Adam Woodyatt (Ian Beale), who's a brilliant actor and a lovely man, a big chance to shine," he added.

Lucy has appeared on and off of the Square since December 1993 and has been portrayed by several actresses, notably Melissa Suffield between 2004 and 2010, and Hetti Bywater from 2012 to present.

The storyline has been plotted so that it isn't a typical "whodunnit", as only a handful of people know what truly resulted in Lucy's death.

A show statement teased: "Ian will start to question how well he really knew his daughter, as secrets spill out after her death. But one Walford resident has a very dark secret about what really happened the night Lucy died - and viewers will be left guessing for the rest of the year... What killed Lucy Beale?"

EastEnders has planned its biggest ever marketing campaign surrounding the death of Lucy Beale.

It was announced last month that the long-running character, currently played by Hetti Bywater, will be killed off at Easter, spelling the start of a dark new chapter for the Beale family.

Lucy's death has been plotted so that every character will become a suspect and all the cast members will be used in the promotion, making it the biggest in the show's history.

Drama boss Ben Stephenson said to The Mirror: "Just about everyone who lives there is a suspect and we are going to use every single cast member in the marketing campaign, which is the biggest we've ever done.

"EastEnders is back to its best and we want everyone to know about it."

A show statement previously said about the storyline: "No-one knows exactly what happened to Lucy on the night she died, except very few people - even the person responsible for her death."

Executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins previously hinted that a story to "shock, entertain and hopefully make the nation weep" would hit around Easter time and continue up to the show's 30-year anniversary in February 2015.

EastEnders airs tonight at 8pm on BBC One.
