EastEnders is lining up a huge week for Elaine Knight (Harriet Thorpe), when she suffers a devastating health setback.
The drama of potentially losing The Vic once and for all leads to immense stress – and following a row with daughter Linda (Kellie Bright), she falls to the floor.
Will Elaine be ok?
Tensions rise in the Slater household when Stacey (Lacey Turner) makes a grand return and is clearly covering for Alfie Moon (Shane Richie), who has gone to Barcelona to find stepdaughter Zoe (Michelle Ryan).
Jean (Gillian Wright) puts her foot in it and Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) has had enough – she calls brother-in-law Spencer (Christopher Parker) in Australia to get answers.
Elsewhere, Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig) decides to expose Bernie Taylor’s (Clair Norris) wrongdoings with the Panesar family.
The tables turn when Bernie accuses her of stealing from the business accounts, and Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) seems to believe her!
Plus, Johnny Carter (Charlie Suff) and Felix Baker (Matthew James Morrison) move in together, while Peter Beale (Thomas Law) and Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) make amends.
Here’s a look ahead to next week in Albert Square…
Monday, June 30 (Part 1)
Things are tense between Linda and Elaine following the former’s decision to sell her part in The Queen Vic. Elaine implores her daughter to consider other options, and is furious to see her chatting with George about the subject.
Little does she realise, he’s actually telling Linda to understand her mum’s point of view.
From her stance, it seems like they two are plotting against her.


Later, she gets bad news from the bank. They’re not willing to help her with a loan, and she tries to convince an unwilling Johnny to be her silence partner.
Following an emotional day, Elaine kicks off and orders all of the punters out of the pub. The events of the day take its toll and she collapses, as a horrified Linda and Johnny rush to her side.
Elsewhere, Vicki and Ross are devastated when Sharon gives them marching orders from her house after failing to repay their debts.
Vicki approaches Bernie in the hope she’ll give her an advance from her wages, but ultimately ends up being fired.


With no other option, Vicki steals the business laptop after her suspicions are raised, and presents some evidence to the Panesars – Bernie has been stealing from them.
Plus, when Stacey returns, its clear to the Slater clan that she’s hiding something due to her awkward silence around Kat.
She quickly covers after some intense questioning, saying that she’s missing Lily.
Down at The Vic, Callum and Linda are surprised to hear that Johnny and Felix are moving in together.
Monday, June 30 (Part 2)
Following Elaine’s physical set back, Linda and Johnny rally around her. She claims that it was a panic attack, but a guilt-ridden Linda thinks it’s been brought on by her deciding to sell The Vic.


Johnny tells his mum that she should stick to her word, but when they head back to the bar, they’re shocked to see that Elaine has collapsed again.
Elsewhere, Vicki blackmails Bernie, telling her to give her half of the stolen profits in exchange for her silence. Felix warns his cousin to tread carefully with the Panesars.
Vicki manages to convince Zack to speak with Sharon about her family staying, and then confesses all to Kathy about her sudden change in cash flow.
Priya and Ravi suspect that something is afoot with Bernie, and their fears are confirmed when Kathy confides in Suki about her stealing from the accounts.


Now knowing she has nowhere to hide, Bernie pins the blame on Vicki!
Plus, at the Minute Mart, Joel continues to have a bad influence over Tommy and encourages him to steal vapes.
Tuesday, July 1 (Part 1)
Ravi and Priya are determined that Vicki should be taught a lesson, but Suki decides that she should be the one who sorts it.
Bernie wants to know why they’re taking time to take action, leading Ravi to lure Vicki into a trap at Walford East.
Elsewhere, Kat can’t get hold of Alfie and is becoming increasingly frustrated – even more so when she learns that Tommy has been robbing vapes from the shop.


She goes to speak to Ross and Vicki about Joel’s worrying influence over him, and then shares her upset with a nervous Stacey.
Stace’ covers, saying that she hasn’t heard from Alfie either, but Jean puts her foot in it by revealing she’d spoken to him that morning.
With her suspicions piqued, Kat calls Spencer in Australia and realises that Alfie isn’t with him at all…
Plus, Felix is frustrated to see Johnny and Callum spending time together, and Lauren and Peter make amends after a pep talk from Kathy.
Tuesday, July 1 (Part 2)
After her shocking realisation, Kat heads to the Slater residence to have a face off with Stacey and Alfie’s whereabouts.
