EastEnders‘ Jack Branning will take a huge risk in new scenes airing next week, as his daughter Penny continues to
blackmail him alongside Harry Mitchell.
After Jack sided with Chelsea Fox in the fallout following the club crush incident, Penny decided to take revenge on her
dad for seemingly abandoning her. Although Harry was reluctant to get involved in her plan at first, he soon changed his
mind after Jack punched him in a rage.
Jack later agreed not to push his investigations into Harry further, despite discovering some incriminating information about him. But Harry still refused to delete the video footage he bought from Tommy Moon of Jack punching him, claiming that he will hold onto it until he feels confident that Jack will leave him alone.
