All the latest updates and news down Walford way!
EDITORIAL, Tuesday 9th September 2025
Well, we did warn everyone that you’d remember last week for years to come – and what a stellar week it was! Flashbacks, reveals and more questions that you can shake a dopey Walford copper at!
So… what exactly do we know for a fact?
Well, we know that Zoe bears trauma from being the child of abuse. It was this that led to her abandoning her twins at the hospital in 2006 – a year after leaving Albert Square. As for the twins she gave birth to, it seems that the fate of the baby girl is still up in the air, but Zoe appears to believe this child has passed. The other, a baby boy, was adopted – but was presumably given Zoe’s pink Ibiza keyring as a link to their true parentage.



So who is the father of the twins? As tonight’s episode reveals, Zoe doesn’t want to discuss the situation anymore with mother Kat – which implies the father is someone they both know! So, who could the suspects be?
We have to rule out former lover Anthony Trueman – as he left the Square before Zoe. We can also rule out Den Watts. But we can’t quite rule out Dennis Rickman – which will give Sharon even more reason to object to Zoe being home…


Then there’s the bloke that Zoe attacked in self-defence whilst searching for her son. The man’s name was Greg Dolan – the same surname as the Irish family that took Zoe’s twin brother Luke to Redwater, where he changed his name – to Declan Dolan. Coincidence? No such thing in EastEnders!



And then the kicker – at some point last year, Zoe and Max Branning – who always had an eye for a Slater – met up and shared a relationship of sorts. He seems to have genuinely fallen for Zoe – and it’s now only a matter of time before he catches up with her at his old stomping grounds!
But Zoe’s return has had consequences throughout the Square – and there’s more to come this week. Within hours of being home, Zoe was shot by Jack Branning while grappling with Ravi Gulati and his gun! And this week, Vicki takes a pop at her former best friend and almost sister-in-law – and Vicki Fowler doesn’t do anything quietly!



Also, this week, Zoe lets Stacey into even more secrets – but what will happen when Max and Stacey reunite after all these years…
It’s going to be an epic Autumn finding out! Until next time!
Regards,
The Curator

Vicki confronts Zoe about Den’s death, sparking a huge argument.
Zoe also worries when she learns that Freddie and Mo have shared details of her ordeal online, inspiring a local paper to write an article about the shooting which could put her at risk. Zoe decides to leave a message with a face from her past.
Meanwhile, George grows suspicious over what’s going on between Okie and Harry, especially when he realises that the locks to Kojo’s flat have been changed. Harry and Kojo try to make excuses, but George remains unconvinced.
George does some snooping around the flat, but by this point, it’s been cleaned by Okie. With George still suspicious, Ravi warns Harry that he’ll handle this problem himself…
Elsewhere, Howie asks Lauren to sell him a cheap car for Kim.

Zoe continues to fear for her safety – and her family’s wellbeing if she brings unwanted attention to their door – so she packs her bags. Stacey begs her to stay and then brings in Jack for help when she finds out about Greg. Jack refuses to get involved this time.
Back home, Zoe shares the full story about Greg and how he might be dead after the fight at the flat earlier in the year. Stacey insists that they’ll need to go and find out for sure.
Meanwhile, Harry seeks help from Kojo to convince George to take Phil’s boxing tour offer, which would take him away from the Square for a few weeks. The stakes are high, as Ravi is determined to put George out of action if he keeps causing problems…
Elsewhere, Vicki is asked to take on more responsibilities with Joel, as Ross now has a second job. Things immediately turn sour when Joel uses Vicki’s bank card to buy tickets to see a podcaster.
Also today, Jack tells Ravi that Elaine is interested in buying No.5.
