5 EastEnders spoilers for next week
1. Vicki Fowler and Zack Hudson are blackmailed

Vicki and Ross are supposed to be celebrating their upcoming weddings, but they end up arguing about whether their friend Joel will come back to town.
They agreed to set a clear boundary, but she told Ross she wouldn’t marry him if he prioritized Joel over her.
Zack tells Sam Mitchell about a past romantic encounter with Vicki. Soon after, he gets unexpectedly involved in Kim Fox’s plans for a 1960s-themed hen party at The Vic, and ends up being asked to perform as a last-minute stripper.

Kathy Beale quickly notices a connection between Zack and Vicki and, upset by this, dramatically pulls the fire alarm to interrupt them.
Vicki and Zack sneak outside for a kiss, but Vicki breaks it off when she thinks Ross is coming. Zack is stunned, and the situation gets worse when they realize someone has been secretly watching and recorded their kiss.
Afterward, Zack tries to discuss their issues with Vicki, but she refuses, firmly stating that a relationship is impossible. She feels better when Ross assures her that Joel will find somewhere else to live.

Zack, feeling down, goes to Harry’s Barn to cope, and Sam finds him there. She shares some positive news about her health, offering a bit of hope. Meanwhile, Zack tries to start fresh with Vicki, telling her he’s ready to move on. However, their newfound relief doesn’t last long when Vicki receives a threatening text message containing a picture of them kissing.
Vicki and Zack become increasingly worried as they try to figure out who is causing them trouble, and they even suspect Zoe Slater for a short time.
Finally, Vicki tells her brother, Mark Fowler (Stephen Aaron-Sipple), everything. Mark then tries to locate the source of the calls, and Ian accidentally says something that makes things even more suspicious.

Vicki, along with Zack and Mark, confronts Ian, suspecting his involvement in something shady. During the confrontation at No.25, the truth about an affair is revealed. Ian finds out about the affair and that Kathy already knew about it, and he encourages Vicki to tell Ross everything. However, things get worse when the person blackmailing them demands £20,000 to keep quiet.
Ross, completely oblivious to the drama unfolding around him, focuses all his energy on planning a romantic wedding surprise. He asks the men of Walford to help him rehearse a flash mob. Feeling she has no other option, Vicki decides to finally tell Ross the truth.

She attempts to bring up the topic, but Ross is unexpectedly called into a client meeting, delaying the inevitable conversation.
Who is Vicki and Zack’s blackmailer?
2. Bea Pollard hits it off with Ian Beale

After getting a little push from the women of Walford, Bea decides to go on a date with Ian. But when she sees Honey and Billy planning their own romantic evening, she gets competitive and even buys the same dress as Honey!
Bea, at Knight Fusion, tries to set up a double date, bringing Honey and Billy along with her and Ian. To impress everyone, she uses a credit card she fraudulently opened in Honey’s name to pay for everything.

Should Ian be worried?
3. Oscar Branning continues to feel awkward around Josh Goodwin

Things get more complicated next week in the love triangle. Oscar tries to avoid Josh, but Kim is determined to bring them together.
She pressured him into agreeing to pose for Josh at the salon. The awkwardness between them became too much, and Oscar quickly left.
Will Oscar ever face his feelings?
4. Suki Panesar-Unwin learns of Ravi Gulati’s problems

I was watching the latest episode, and it was interesting to see Ravi helping his half-brother, Vinny, with some physical labor at Penny’s new shop. It’s on Turpin Road, by the way. But poor Ravi! Harry Mitchell was being a real jerk and making fun of him while he was trying to help out.
He becomes upset when Avani Nandra-Hart and a worried Davinder Gulati tell him a video of Davinder having a seizure was filmed and posted online.
As viewers know, it was Will Mitchell (Freddie Phillips) who recorded the footage.

Despite Priya Nandra-Hart’s (Sophie Khan Levy) attempts to de-escalate things, Ravi insists on handling the problem himself.
People are starting to worry about Ravi’s lack of sleep, and Nugget finds out Will is the cause. Nugget confronts Will about it in the town square, bringing Ravi with him. Everyone – including Honey and Billy – meets at the cafe to discuss what’s happening, but Ravi doesn’t say anything when he’s supposed to. Frustrated, Nugget then walks out.

Ravi later shared his difficulties with Suki, which led her to talk to Priya and offer to pay for him to see a therapist. Although support is available, Ravi feels uneasy that Suki is now aware of how much he’s been struggling.
5. Max Branning makes a deal with his daughter Lauren Beale

Lauren and Max are increasingly competitive with each other at the car dealership, and their different approaches to selling cars lead Oscar to challenge them with a test.
With competition increasing, Max makes Lauren a tempting offer: she’ll get 50% of the company if she can generate $80,000 in sales within the next month.
Will she feel pressured into dealing with Mark’s dodgy motors again?
