As Zoe’s stalker turned arsonist, Anthony made it his mission to track down his long-lost twins. After sharing what he’d learned with Chelsea, Anthony paid Kat a visit… where he proceeded to tell a terrible lie about the babies’ fate.

Elsewhere, Sam shared a moment with Linda, while Lauren risked her secret being exposed.

Here’s everything else that happened in EastEnders tonight.

Anthony lied to Kat

A shocked Anthony left the hospital, reeling from what he had just learned. Back in Walford, Anthony clashed with Chelsea as he drowned his sorrows in The Albert.

He was full of self-pity over the twins, and raging at Zoe for keeping them from him. A shocked Chelsea listened as he explained the situation, sharing how Zoe had lied about the twins’ birth date… abandoning them in a hospital, while he was still out there in the world, unaware.

And so a new obsession emerged. Anthony was going to track down his long-lost children and warn them to keep away from their waste of a mother.

Later, he paid Kat a visit at The Vic. He told her that both of the twins had died once Zoe left the hospital. He then offered to break the news to Zoe himself, although Kat insisted that they sit on this new ‘information’ until after Christmas.

Zack learned about Sam’s cancer fears

At the Mitchells’, Zack was reunited with Sam – and quickly spotted a leaflet from the hospital. He vowed to support her, come what may, just as she’d supported him when he was diagnosed as HIV positive.

Linda made amends

Later, at the Albert, Sam ran into Linda. Linda, who was still raging at Elaine for spending all of their money on Peacock Palace. For once, Sam proved the voice of reason, pointing out the future that Elaine had built for her and the family.

Linda returned to Peacock Palace, where she swallowed her pride and thanked Elaine for all that she’d done.

Peter stumbled across Lauren’s guilty secret

Peter had gotten a call from the bank, chasing up on the charity money. She tried to cover her tracks again, claiming that she’d left the money in the safe at the car lot, then forgotten about it.

Lauren was talking to Kathy about the day’s events when Peter burst in, revealing that the money had been nicked.
