As news of Teddy’s arrest broke, another horrific crime was dredged up when Vicki stepped in to defend Tommy against Denzel and Nugget. She was horrified when Amy informed her how Tommy had kept Joel hidden after the attack, and confronted him in The Vic.

Elsewhere, Nigel revisited his past after Lexi made plans to adapt his film script.

Here’s everything else that happened on EastEnders tonight.

Vicki confronted Tommy

In the café, Vicki was perturbed to see Nugget and Denzel giving Tommy a hard time. Jumping to his defence, she pointed out how he’d done the right thing, and shopped Joel to the police.

Spotting Vicki and Tommy sharing a reconciliatory hot chocolate, Amy decided to stick her oar in – telling Vicki how Tommy had helped hide Joel after the attack.

Faced with this new information, Vicki stormed across to The Vic, where she confronted Tommy. As Tommy apologised, Kat came to her son’s defence, offering Vicki a shoulder to cry on in her time of need.

Nigel gave the greenlight

Ritchie’s words still playing on his mind, Nigel received a visit from Lexi. She’d read Nigel’s script, and wanted to put the shoot the film on her phone.

However, he was in no mood for visitors, and snapped back at her. Later, in the Square park, Julie showed Nigel’s script to Kim, earmarking a role for the Kimfluencer.

Kim found Nigel at the launderette, where she pitched herself in the role of Police Officer no.2. Back home, Nigel revisited his script. As he confided in Phil, Nigel revealed his fear that he was fading, and no longer the man he used to be.

After some reassuring words from Phil, Nigel was all in on the film, and sat down for his first official production meeting with Lexi and Julie.
