Joel takes shocking action in EastEnders - and it spells trouble for Tommy
Twisted Joel Marshall (Max Murray) has gained leverage over Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall) in EastEnders. Earlier this week, the lads skived off school to take a trip into The City. On their journey home, Joel demanded Tommy whip out his phone and record something shocking. He stumbled through the carriage, falling onto a girl and touching her inappropriately. In the aftermath, Tommy fled the scene, while Joel's step-mother figure Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig) met up with the victim and handed her £2,000 in exchange for her silence. Her partner Ross (Alex Walkinshaw), Joel's dad, was furious, but glad that the ordeal seemed to be over. In his absence, Vicki fumed at the teen, ordering him to get his act together as she wouldn't cover for him in the future. In tonight's episode, she became concerned that there could be another threat to Joel's freedom. She broached the subject to the lad, asking him if he thought Tommy would have gone to the police to report the incident. Joel had faith in his mate – despite seemingly being cut off – and asserted that he was just as responsible because he was the one who filmed it. Tommy sat outside in The Square, panicking about the consequences. Vicki marched over and branded him a 'wrongen', and making it clear that if he speaks up, she'll tell everyone that it was his idea to commit the offence.

Later, he sat alone in the cafe and Joel arrived. He branded Vicki a 'slapper', hoping to get on the right side of Tommy again, and said that he was ok with them not hanging out – as long as he realised that the video exists, and therefore they're equals. More Trending Tommy knew that he'd have to try and win his support back, as it could be dangerous should they fall out. They made amends, with Tommy deleting the video. Joel requested that he send it to him first, and once received, stated that he now had evidence to incriminate him. View More » Is Tommy is deep trouble?

EastEnders drops biggest clue yet Zoe Slater is a secret MOTHER – and her child is already in Walford
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EASTENDERS has dropped a huge hint Zoe Slater's secret child is already in Walford with a very telling scene. The iconic character - who is played by actress Michelle Ryan in the BBC soap - returned last night looking worse for wear. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 2 There was a huge hint that Zoe was hiding a major secret in EastEnders Credit: BBC 2 Could Joel be her son who she abandoned? Credit: BBC Clutching a bag of booze and having barely recovered from her hangover, Zoe looked to be in an out of control and desperate situation. But there was a clue that suggests Zoe is in fact the mother of predatory incel Joel who recently arrived in the Square. Viewers know he has been grooming Tommy Moon to be as misogynistic and vile as he is - and last night he opened up about his own mummy issues. And coinciding with Zoe's return as a mess seems to suggest the two are linked. 'You don't talk about your family… is your mum in Australia?' asked Tommy of Joel. Joel told him: 'No - my mum's a slapper.' 'It's just… my mum ran off when I was little,' he added. 'And my dad moved us to Australia for a fresh start but he was always working. 'I just hated it. And the kids took the mick out of me for my accent. 'I asked the teacher if I could go to the loo on the first day. Didn't know it was called the dunny, did I? So I was called Lulu from then on. 'Didn't say a word for six months, in case I said it wrong after that. Then when I finally fought back, I got expelled. Blackmail horror for EastEnders teenager as sexual predator Joel targets another victim 'Then when I finally met some real mates, dad met Vicky and dragged me back here. I didn't have a choice in any of it and now I'm stuck in this dump.' Joel was also pouring poison into Tommy's ear about his mum - who if the hint is correct - is his own grandmother. Zoe has since fled the country to go to Barcelona but will return later this summer. Will her secret be revealed then?

EastEnders ‘confirms' Joel fan theory in throwaway scene - did you spot it?
EastEnders has seemingly 'confirmed' a huge fan theory regarding Joel Marshall (Max Murray). Little is known about the Albert Square newcomer, other than the fact he's found himself in a lot of trouble since his arrival. Alongside dad Ross (Alex Walkinshaw) and Ross' partner Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig), the trio came to Walford for her uncle Martin's (James Bye) funeral. It soon transpired that they couldn't return to their home in Australia, as Joel had upskirted a pupil in his class, and Ross had paid her family $50,000 in exchange for their silence. The youngster has then showed a number of worrying behaviours towards women – watching extreme adult content online with Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall), recording himself sleeping with Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James) and this week, sexually assaulting a passenger on the London Underground. Tommy witnessed the latter incident and was horrified, and as we saw in tonight's episode, is reluctant to hang around with him. This came following a conversation about a disgusting influencer, who degrades women. Joel thought this was an appropriate way to talk about the opposite sex, branding his own mum a 'slapper', talking about how she abandoned him as a child. But who exactly is his mum? Well, fans flocked to social media to question whether recent returnee Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) could've hooked up with Ross during her 20 year absence, and subsequently left him to raise their son. 'So…Joel and Zoe….??' said @E20AfterDark. @blistatcapital wrote: 'Zoe is going to be Joel's Mum or something absurd like that.' @RyanJL commented: 'Come on, who cares about coincidences, Zoe being Joel's mum is pure soap gold. Kat's his Granny! Tommy's his uncle! It's Slater magic.' Well, further fuel was added to that fire in tonight's episode, with an off the cuff line that harked back to one of EastEnders' most iconic scenes. Back in 2001, Zoe discovered that her sister Kat (Jessie Wallace) was actually her mother. She was planning to head to Spain for a new life with their Uncle Harry (Michael Elphick), unaware that he was in fact Kat's rapist – and therefore her father. 'You can't tell me what to do, you ain't my mother!' screamed Zoe, as Kat attempted to prevent her relocation, howling back: 'Yes I am!' Cue the doof doofs! In tonight's EastEnders, Vicki paid £2,000 to the girl that Joel assaulted on the tube. He promised her and Ross that he would change his ways, and that he'd never commit such an offence again. However, Vicki saw straight through his act and pinned Joel against the door. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers? Who's leaving Coronation Street?
