Next week on EastEnders, Zoe drops a bombshell on Sharon, Peter shares an outing with a mystery woman, and Vicki ends up in a violent fight…

For more on these plots, here’s our round-up of the biggest moments set to unfold on Albert Square.

1. Sharon returns home

Now back in Walford, Sharon is stunned to see Zoe outside Stacey’s house. Vicki and Zack welcome their sister home, but Sharon remains preoccupied with the fact that Zoe is around.

Sharon tries to confront Zoe and later heads to The Vic, where she calls a truce with her former love rival.

Also, Howie feels concerned over money when Kim accidentally breaks her camera equipment. While over at The Albert, Mo is fired after an accident takes place.

2. Peter meets his admirer

While attending a sensory class for Jimmy, Peter meets a fellow parent called Demi, who is clearly attracted to him. Against Ian’s advice, Peter has a drink with the young mum at The Vic.

Afterwards, the dad-of-two returns home and seduces Lauren. Although, Peter is the none the wiser that Penny has witnessed his secret meet-up. Will she tell Lauren about what she’s seen?

3. Vicki and Zoe turn violent

When Sharon spots Phil in the café, it’s awkward between the two exes. Although, Sharon is quick to make a peace offering and Phil agrees to care for Albie that evening.

Afterwards, Sharon mentions Vicki’s outstanding debt to her, but the Fowler lady feels too stressed out by Joel to address the situation properly.

Having stormed out, Vicki bumps into Zoe and the two women end up in a physical fight. Zack and Anthony jump in, but Zack is hit while trying to break up the violence.

4. Cindy hires a new employee

Having moved into No 25, Cindy predictably stirs up trouble between Lauren and Peter.

Next, Cindy meets a young woman called Jasmine, who queries whether there are any jobs available at The Albert. At first, Cindy declines but later sees Jasmine take matters into her own hands to secure a bar position.

Impressed, Cindy decides to offer Jasmine a job, before Jean arrives to give them both a telling off. What exactly have they done to upset Jean?

5. Kat makes an emotional tribute

Following a shocking ordeal, the Slater family remain stunned. Zoe backs herself while speaking to Kat, Alfie and Stacey, but their suspicions are raised as she continues to dodge the truth about her past.

Later in the week, Kat recruits Stacey to help her sow a plant in memory of Zoe’s daughter in the Square gardens. As a result, Zoe starts to thaw towards her mum. Will Zoe and Kat start to heal old wounds?

6. Stacey books flights to Brazil

While at home, Stacey informs Lily that Sean has invited them to live with him in Brazil. Excited, Lily encourages her mum to accept the offer, but the moment is broken when Zoe and Kat enter the room.

Eventually, Stacey reveals to Lily that she’s sorted their flights to Brazil, though their excitement is curtailed when Jean arrives and Stacey is forced to explain her plan of action. Jean does her best to hide that she’s hurt, before Stacey and Lily arrange to meet Ricky and reveal all. However, Lily is thrown into a panic when Jack arrives, but Stacey is nowhere to be seen.

As Lily is forced to break the news on her own, how will Jack and Ricky react?

7. Zoe makes a confession

After sharing a warm exchange with Phil, Sharon returns home to find Vicki and Zack sporting injuries after the bust-up with Zoe. At the pub, Sharon confronts Zoe, who strikes back with a shocking confession.

Disbelieving, Sharon loses her temper at Zoe, which forces Kat to chuck her and Vicki out of The Vic.

Once in the café, Ian realises how upset Sharon is and accompanies her back to No. 45 for a heartfelt chat with Kathy. Ian himself tries to convince Sharon that Zoe has lied to her, while Kat and Alfie question Zoe on her claims.

8. Lauren rumbles Peter

Having been walked in on by Oscar, Lauren and Peter feel amused. They then head to Johnny’s birthday party at The Albert, where Penny insists to Peter that he needs to tell Lauren about Demi.

Peter decides not to tell Lauren, but she finds out anyway when she finds a flirtatious message on his phone. Surprisingly, Lauren isn’t bothered about the text, which leads Peter to question his relationship.

9. Oscar turns on the charm

While Jasmine continues to impress Cindy, it’s obvious that Elaine isn’t a fan of hers. Oscar, however, is taken by Jasmine and does his best to win her over. Soon, Cindy picks up on his efforts and warns Jasmine to keep her distance.

That said, Oscar continues his flirty advances and asks Jasmine out by stealing an outfit from the market.

As Cindy warns Jasmine about Oscar for a second time, will she be listened to?

10. Penny takes action

After making contact with Demi, Penny organises for her and Lauren to meet up for a coffee. It doesn’t take long for the three women to bond, but Peter is mortified when he overhears them laughing at him. Lauren eventually puts things right and uses the moment to tell Peter that she wants more excitement.

In response, Peter asks for advice from Ian and Kathy, who are shocked when he reveals that they has a plan up his sleeve. What could Peter have in mind?
