As Jasmine reveals she's Zoe's daughter, lives hang in the balance when a deadly fire breaks out tomorrow

Who saw that one coming?

Jasmine Fisher revealed that she’s Zoe’s daughter in EastEnders tonight (Monday, December 15), as the police questioned her true identity. Taken down the station after her return to Walford, Jasmine shared revealed whether or not she’s a member of the Ford crime family.

And, as Anthony discovered that Zoe’s daughter had actually survived childbirth, he came to realise that he may be the twins’ father. That wasn’t the only surprise in store tonight either… as Jasmine admitted that Zoe is her mother.

Is Jasmine telling the truth? And if so, why hasn’t she approached Zoe yet?

Here’s what happened in EastEnders tonight… and what happens next.

Kat sought help from Anthony as Jean spiralled

‘Twas a week-and-a-half before Christmas, and the fridge was bare. With Jean still wallowing in her misery, Lily had naught to feed baby Charli for breakfast. Growing suspicious after Lily came around looking for food, Kat and Alfie paid a visit… finding Jean on the sofa, and the house a state.

As Kat and Alfie fretted, Jean let slip that she’d been behind the threatening Christmas lights at The Vic. After Lily reassured them that it was only the lights Jean was responsible for, Kat spoke to Jean, and promised to stick by her.

Afterwards, Kat met with Zoe, and informed her that Jean had been behind the lights. Still, Zoe refused to come home, and Kat was forced to seek help from Anthony over Jean’s condition.

He informed her that Jean may be experiencing new bipolar symptoms as a result of recent events. Determined to make things right with Zoe, Kat then asked him to look into the missing twin, using his medical know-how to access the twins’ medical records.

Anthony learned the truth about Zoe’s daughter in EastEnders tonight

At the hospital, Anthony finagled information on the twins from an old colleague, Doctor Uzma. Having bullied Uzma into giving him the file, Anthony learned that the twins had been born in 2006… confirming (in his mind at least) that the twins are his.

But there’s more! According to the file, doctors had managed to resuscitate Zoe’s daughter, meaning that she’s still alive.

Meanwhile, at the station, Jasmine made a shocking admission…

With Jasmine back in Walford, Oscar arranged a secret meeting with her at Container Junction. She maintained that she’d only pushed Cindy because she’d come at her, and wanted to stay in Walford… with Oscar.

He returned home, where plans for Jimmy’s christening were in full flow. He again met with Jasmine, where they shared a passionate kiss… unaware that Penny was watching. Busy Oscar returned home (again), to find that Penny had already shared the news on the family group chat.

As Cindy fled, Ian called the police, who promptly brought Jasmine in for questioning. At the station, Jasmine maintained that she had no idea who the Ford family are – and that her parents are exactly who she says she is.

She was adopted though, Jasmine admitted, and that her birth parents remained unknown. She’d come to Walford to track down her birth mother, Jasmine revealed.

And who is Jasmine’s mother? None other than Zoe Slater.

Will Oscar and Zoe survive?

What else happened in EastEnders tonight?

As the truth about Zoe's twins was revealed, Harry and the Mitchells recovered from the events of last week. After sharing a heart-to-heart with Penny, Harry agreed to get clean, and checked himself into a detox clinic at his mum's arrangement.

Meanwhile, Linda returned to Albert Square as Elaine celebrated the opening of Peacock Palace... and she wasn't happy to see what her mum had done with the place.

Elsewhere, the missing charity money still playing on her mind, Lauren pressed Ian for help.

Here's everything else that happened in EastEnders tonight.

Harry's getting clean

With Harry out of the hospital, Nicola had booked him a place at a detox clinic - although he was reluctant to go, and continued to stew over his father's life sentence. Meanwhile, Teddy's words about Nicola were playing on Billy's mind as he watched her and George play house.

Honey advised him to keep quiet about his concerns, but will Billy decide to tell George what Teddy had said about his ex?

Later, Penny found Harry downing beers at Container Junction. Taking him back home, she encouraged him to get help with his addiction. Nicola returned home to find Harry with his bags packed, ready to go to rehab.

After bidding a fond farewell to her and Kojo, Harry climbed into the back of a taxi and left Walford to get clean.

Linda returned as Peacock Palace opened its doors

It was the opening day of Elaine's boutique hotel, and she was determined to mark the occasion with a bang. A shocked Linda arrived back on Albert Square to find the opening ceremony in full swing - bells, whistles and all.

Linda wasn't happy to see what Elaine had been up to in her absence, giving her mum a piece of her mind.

Lauren panicked over the money

Lauren continued to panic about the 'missing' charity money. Ian reassured her that he was shifting some money around, and that he'd have everything in hand.

Can Lauren replace the money before Peter and the family find out her guilty little secret?
