Just a tiny thing, and probably of little to no interest to anyone, but tonight was the first time I can remember seeing any kind of recap (albeit just two lines from the end of last night's episode) of a "doof-doof" on Eastenders. Or have I just not been paying enough attention?

Wouldn't be the first time they've messed around with the format. Didn't they at one point around 2000 have the credits appear at the beginning of the show, like ITV soaps (or American shows)?
It was a recap only in the sense that the episode began a few seconds before the end of last night's episode, with Masood's last two lines repeated, before the scene then continued. They didn't have a cold open with Mick Carter growling "Pweviously, on Eastendahs" or anything

Not that I can remember. Opening has always been clean of credits.

Yeah, as the video shows, you're right, the OP itself HAS always been clean of credits - but the writer and producer credits in the first scene are something you usually don't see.
followed by a list of names (actors and production staff) in two columns, and at the end an "In Memory of" with five names, only one of which I recognised as the actor who played Jim Branning.
Every year for the past few years. Was just on the Sunday afternoon omnibus when it actually was on Sunday Afternoons but since last year they broadcast it on the final episode before New Year's Eve.
