Fresh Jasmine twist leaves Oscar and Kat heartbroken in early iPlayer release

There's no end to Jasmine's drama...

WARNING: This article is full of spoilers for today’s episode of EastEnders, which is streaming on BBC iPlayer now, but has not yet aired on BBC One – in which Oscar and Kat are reeling when Jasmine vanishes. 

Wherever Jasmine goes, she leaves trouble in her wake, and today’s EastEnders (Tuesday, January 27) is no different when she flees Walford and leaves everyone reeling.

Oscar is stunned to get a message from Jasmine telling him that she is better off alone. Panicking that she is trying to dump him, he races to The Vic. But once there, he is horrified when Kat tells him Jasmine has gone.

EastEnders: Oscar panics when Jasmine vanishes

Oscar and Kat quickly realise that Jasmine lied to them both about where she was the night before, and she has done a runner. Oscar then drops the bombshell on Kat that they were planning to leave Walford and were just trying to raise the money to go.

While Oscar is heartbroken, Kat is more worried about what this means for Zoe and getting her out of prison.

But Kat and Oscar aren’t the only ones Jasmine has managed to upset by running away. Patrick arrives and reveals that Jasmine put the £1000 cheque he gave her back through his door before she left.

With everyone worried that Jasmine is alone and without any cash, Patrick blames Kat for driving their granddaughter away.

Heartbroken Oscar hits the bottle

Oscar deals with his heartache by drowning his sorrows. But while Alfie refuses to serve him any more alcohol, Kat gives him another beer, hoping he might drunkenly confess more about where Jasmine could be.

Max is unsurprisingly the only one who is happy to see the back of Jasmine. He tells Oscar and Kat that Jasmine didn’t go to the police to give a statement like she claimed, and they’re better off without her.

Reeling, Kat realises that Jasmine has played her, and if she wants to get Zoe out of jail, she needs to track Jasmine down. And fast.

However, Oscar gets so drunk that he throws up all over the Vic floor, and his dad takes him home.

But where has Jasmine gone with no money? Kat is convinced Chrissie has been in touch again, but could this be true?

Something tells us this most definitely isn’t the last we have seen of the troulemaking newcomer.
