Now fans have spotted another continuity error but this time it's with Ruby Allen's hair. It all kicked off at the beginning of the episode with Ruby walking to the Slater household with her hair appearing perfectly curled.

However when she arrived at Stacey's house and saw Whitney, Tiffany, Little Mo and Jean, her hair appeared to look straight.

Eek!

Another said: "Continuity fail, Ruby’s hair just perfectly curled itself before she went into the MinuteMart #EastEnders #iknowcurls"

Last night EastEnders viewers saw Ruby Allen come to terms with her horrific ordeal following a night out with Stacey, Martin and his friends.

Speaking about the consent storyline, Louisa Lytton who plays the infamous character has said: "As someone that has been part of EastEnders before, and as a viewer of the show, I know the impact a storyline such as this can have and although it is a huge responsibility, I feel honoured to be part of something that, by working alongside Rape Crisis, we all hope can help end the many misconceptions surrounding sexual violence."
