Here is our round-up of all the biggest moments coming up in Walford in the next week.
Cindy digs into Jasmine’s past…and pays the price
Cindy’s suspicion of Jasmine grows, and she teams up with Lauren to dig for information.
They take Jasmine’s unattended phone, and contact her mum Anita, who warns the pair of her daughter’s dark side.
When Cindy tells Jasmine she has spoken to her mother, Jasmine pushes Cindy down the stairs in a fit of rage, to be discovered later by Oscar.
Oscar raises the alarm, but when he questions Jasmine she denies pushing Cindy. Will her devious actions be exposed?
Lauren gets cruelly scammed by a fake doctor
When Lauren and Peter are given information about an experimental new treatment that could help with Jimmy’s visual impairments, Lauren is intrigued, despite Ian’s assumption that it’s a con.
Lauren ignores Ian, desperate to do all she can to help her son, and discovers from the “doctor” that there will be an initial charge of £3,000.
Provided with fake test results, Lauren confides in Cindy, but remains worried about where she’ll get the money to pay for the treatment.
An incident with Jimmy at The Vic makes Lauren even more anxious to give him all the help he needs.
But she soon realises that she’s been scammed, and that the doctor never existed. Will she come clean - and has she lost the money forever?
Ross and Vicki reunite
On Ross and Vicki’s second anniversary, they reflect on the state of their relationship.
Vicki goes for a drink in Harry’s barn, but gets angry at the behaviour of some of the male customers.
Chelsea urges Vicki not to let her altercation with Joel affect the way she views men - but when Ross arrives and decides to join Vicki dancing, she is furious at his assumption that she wants his company.
They later sit down for a drink to clear the air, and Ross apologies for his mistake with Joel.
They agree to take things slow, and it looks like there is hope for their relationship - unless Vicki’s kiss with Zack comes to light.
Zoe receives another threat
A series of calls from a mystery number to their mobiles and The Vic landline have Kat and Alfie at the end of their tether.
Zoe thinks she knows who is behind the calls, and Anthony gives her his support when the rest of the family disagree with her.
Later, Zoe finds a Christmas card sent to her at The Vic containing a sinister message - who is behind the threats?
Anna and Freddie make plans
Anna breaks the news to Freddie that she is set to go travelling in Australia - and he offers to tag along with her.
Gina isn’t happy when she discovers their plans - will she persuade Anna not to go?
Kim’s publicity campaign goes awry
Elaine turns to Kim in her quest to generate publicity for her new boutique B&B, Peacock Palace.
Things go wrong, however, when Kim makes a series of offensive remarks about her followers while accidentally streaming live, and her following plummets.
Howie decides to take control to save their financial problems - what is he planning?
