Vicki gets terrible news about Joel in EastEnders today
As today’s episode begins, Vicki is feeling awful about the events of last week. She’s perturbed when she gets a message from her case worker. Later, as Vicki and Zack meet with the case worker, they’re appalled to hear that Joel is pleading not guilty.
Vicki’s distraught, but agrees to go to quiz night at The Vic in an attempt to take her mind off things.

Vicki attacks Chelsea’s date
At The Vic, things get off to a bad start when Vicki finds herself on the same quiz team as Ross. Tensions between the pair begin to thaw off, but she’s distracted by Chelsea’s date, Damon.
After reprimanding him for trying to get Chelsea drunk, Vicki overhears him on the phone to his wife. She exposes him as a cheat in front of everyone, although Chelsea admits that she already knew he was married.
However, that’s enough to ruin the night for both of them, storming off out of The Vic. Outside, Vicki bumps into Damon again at McKlunky’s, where he gets nasty. Vicki follows him to the launderette, continuing their row.
And, as Damon gets too close for comfort, Vicki gives him a shove. Damon falls to the floor, hitting his head.
