Patrick was floored by the truth (Credit: BBC) Oscar admits the truth to Patrick Tonight’s visit to EastEnders began where yesterday’s left off, with a shocked Patrick learning the truth about his attack. After Oscar dropped the bombshell that he was the attacker, Patrick demanded to know if it was some kind of joke. Oscar admitted he was the one who broke in, explaining to a horrified Patrick that he’d overheard him mention his gambling win. Unsurprisingly, Patrick was devasted to learn the truth, especially as Oscar has been spending time with him since the attack.

Though Lauren tried to track him down, she didn’t manage to keep up with her brother. Upon returning home, Peter confronted her, asking if she’d known what Oscar had done. Back at Patrick’s house, the family argued about whether or not they should go to the police with the truth. Anthony was determined to get him sent down, but Patrick didn’t seem so sure. When Howie tracked Oscar and Lauren down, he told them to keep his blackmailing out of it if the police got involved. Meanwhile, Cindy approached Anthony, insisting that Oscar is “evil”, and Peter insisted on throwing him out of the house. Later, Oscar headed back to Patrick’s to apologise. Kat is worried about her son (Credit: BBC) Kat worries about Tommy in EastEnders tonight At The Vic, a worried Kat was struggling to get in touch with son, Tommy. She lamented to Alfie that Tommy “should be tearing these low lives new ones, not liking their posts.” Alfie insisted that Tommy needed talking to, not shouting at, and for her to leave things with him. Soon, Tommy was home, and taking his advice, Kat left Alfie to speak to him. It soon became clear that Tommy knew more than Alfie would have liked… Tommy is determined Having found Kat’s missing phone, Tommy had listened to the voice message about Zoe. Tommy confronted Alfie, insisting that Kat deserved to know about what was going on with her daughter. Alfie was insistent that things weren’t that simple, and Zoe didn’t want to see Kat. Much to his concern, Tommy stormed out, after saying Kat needed to know what had been going on. A panicked Alfie went to Stacey for help. In the end, Tommy chose not to tell Kat what he knew. Also on EastEnders tonight Elsewhere, Callum and Billy were concerned about Lexi. The teen had been in the toilets for awhile, and both men went to check on her. It soon became clear that the youngster was embarrassed to tell the men what was going on, and Johnny realised she must have come on her period. Soon, it became clear that Lexi was struggling since her mum, Lola, had passed away, being surrounded only be men. Johnny’s help with Lexi caused Callum to ask him out again — but Johnny declined, not wanting to be a “dirty little secret.” Also tonight, Ravi caught Harry doing business with Joel. Much to Joel’s dismay, this meant he didn’t get paid for the phones he’d stolen. Read more: Who’s leaving, joining and returning to EastEnders? Complete list of cast exits, arrivals and returns.
