EastEnders spoilers: 1. Avani is hurt

Nugget catches Avani texting Mason, but she begs for him to keep quiet. Later, when Ravi confiscates her phone, he asks Priya for her help to unlock it.

However, she tells him that there’s nothing to worry about – revealing that Avani told her in confidence that she’s going out with Barney. Ravi decides to leave her messages be, and gives Avani her phone back.

Avani meets Mason and tells him that she isn’t going to sleep with him. He tells her to leave and, pushing her away, gives her a busted lip.

As Ravi and Priya share a charged moment, he spots his daughter with her bloodied mouth. Avani attempts to lie her way out of trouble, but Ravi is convinced that Barney is to blame for her injuries. Storming off, he decides to teach Barney a lesson…

2. War between the Mitchells and the Panesars

As Ravi enacts his revenge upon Barney, Teddy intervenes, and the pair come to blows. Avani races to the scene, and forces Ravi to stop.

Later, outside the cafe, Teddy and Ravi square up again, and the police arrive. Afterwards, back at home, Teddy enlists Harry’s help to hit back at Ravi.

Meanwhile, the Panesar family debate the best way to take their revenge on the Mitchells. However, Suki intervenes and insists that she doesn’t want to see any more of her family behind bars. She and Nish reach out to Teddy, arranging a meeting at the café.

Can the two families de-escalate before it’s too late?

Penny and Harry blackmail Jack. When he heads over to The Arches to demand answers, Harry demands that he agree to his blackmail terms by the end of the week… or else.

Afterwards, Jack tells Penny some worrying news. Penny confronts Harry over what she has learned, but he soon puts her worries to rest.

Later, Harry tells Jack that the blackmail deadline has moved forward to tomorrow as a result of his interference. A reluctant Jack has no choice but to turn a blind eye to Harry’s dodgy dealings.

Alfie arrives home from Birmingham. His sudden arrival startles Kat, who attempts to hide her injury. She lies and tells him that she got it after a night out with Stacey – but suspicious Alfie soon discovers she’s lying.

Demanding the truth, Alfie finally gets Kat to admit that it was Tommy who injured her.

Later, the Moons and Freddie sit down to share a meal together. However, an altercation between Freddie and Tommy soon escalates, and the families are left reeling from the ensuing carnage.

The next day, Kat continues to make excuses for Tommy’s behaviour. Meanwhile, Freddie finds himself under the spotlight with the Slaters, as Jean suspects he’s keeping a secret for Kat.
