EastEnders legend rushed to hospital after 'deadly' attack by familiar face
New spoilers for EastEnders have teased worrying twists and turns ahead for multiple characters.
There's a violent showdown that leads to one favourite being rushed to hospital. One vile character is soon targeting others with his grim behaviour, while another teen finds himself in big trouble.
There's a big decision to be made for one resident of Walford, while one married character is warned against his flirty behaviour with another man. One character, soon returning to the show, makes contact with their family, and two love rivals look set to unite.
Let's kick things off with more drama ahead for troubled teen Oscar Branning, and it leaves one Albert Square legend in serious danger. Patrick Trueman fends off Oscar who has broken into his home, unaware he is the culprit.
Oscar is being threatened by thug Mike who he grassed up to the police. As things escalate, Mike returns and demands £5,000 in return for the Branning family's safety.
Oscar initially tries to lure Ian Beale into a business deal to find the extra cash, but Ian refuses. Lauren Branning soon finds out what her brother has been up to, leaving Oscar seeking other means of getting the funds.
Oscar breaks into Patrick's home to steal his bet winnings. He's caught in the act though, leading to Oscar abruptly pushing Patrick to flee. But Patrick ends up falling to the ground, leaving him badly injured.
Patrick is left unconscious as the horror unfolds, with his partner Yolande Trueman unaware of what's happening amid her row with her fiancé. Having called off the wedding over his betting, will she regret this when she realises Patrick is in a bad way?
With Patrick motionless on the ground, Oscar decides to leave him only for Howie Danes to return home and realise what's happened. Oscar makes a run for it and Howie sees him, while he doesn't see his face so is unaware it's Oscar.
Yolande is inconsolable as she heads home to the horror unfolding, and soon Patrick is rushed to hospital. His family wait for news and the police arrive to take a witness statement from Howie, but will he be okay?
Lauren meanwhile is suspicious of Oscar's behaviour, and his sudden concern for Patrick. He tries to flee Walford only for her to stop him in his tracks, confronting him with the stolen money.
He begs his sister to let him flee as she riles at him for his actions. But will Oscar be exposed? Elsewhere, Avani Nandra-Hart is still torn over her pregnancy amid her grandmother Suki Panesar's plan to help raise the baby with her wife Eve Unwin.
Eve is still unconvinced by the plan next week and is desperate to hear from Avani what she wants, without Suki's involvement. Eve supports the teenager at her 12-week scan, and after she and Avani lie to the family when Priya finds a receipt from the hospital in Avani's jacket - but will the pregnancy be rumbled?
The baby's father Joel Marshall, who has no idea about the baby, is back to his vile ways next week. Ross Marshall takes son Joel and his pal Tommy Moon to work at the timber yard but soon grows concerned for the boys when he overhears some of the language from other workers on the site.
That's the least of his issues though, as Ross pales to receive a call from Joel's mum. She informs him that she is getting remarried, and Ross faces having to tell Joel.
As Joel slips out to process the news, he's soon stealing drink from the pub with Tommy only to be caught. As Joel's stepmother Vicki Fowler and Tommy's parents Kat and Alfie rage at the boys for their behaviour, everyone is shocked by what Joel does next.
Joel lashes out with derogatory language towards Kat leaving them all horrified, and soon he's being lectured by Ross and Vicki. A moment later on that sees Ross trying to bond with his troubled son leaves him sickened though, as he makes a worrying discovery on Joel's laptop and destroys the device.
He's cold towards his son in the fallout, and Vicki is later shocked to discover the real reason why Ross broke his laptop. She tells Ross to take action against Joel before his behaviour gets out of hand.
It leads to Ross sharing a heart-to-heart with Harvey in the café and the former is given food for thought. When Joel apologises to Kat, she allows him to hang out with Tommy. But it's not long before Joel is showing his true colours again when Vicki and Stacey Slater bond over parenting and men.
Finally next week, Elaine Peacock is struggling without the pub and after a heart-to-heart with Yolande, she and love rival Cindy Beale join forces at The Albert. Cindy later offers Elaine the job of co-manager, so could there be a thawing between them?
Callum Highway's flirting with Johnny Carter leads to him being warned by Jay brown, amid a call from his imprisoned husband Ben Mitchell. With Ben set to return to the show, will it all end in tears?

EastEnders' Natalie Cassidy 'bricking it' as she admits weakness ahead of new TV show
Former EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy, whose character Sonia Fowler left Walford in April, is among the contestants on the new series of Cooking with the Stars Former EastEnders cast member Natalie Cassidy has been "bricking it" over her latest TV project, which is scheduled to launch later this weekend. The actor has teased that she pushed herself out of her comfort zone for the experience. Natalie, 42, announced earlier that year that she would be leaving the BBC soap opera. Her character Sonia Fowler, who first appeared in 1993, then left Walford in scenes that aired back in April, with her seen embarking on a new life abroad with her two children and her sister Bianca Jackson. Following her departure, it was revealed that Natalie will appear on the new series of ITV 's Cooking with the Stars and she's spoken about feeling nervous ahead of the launch. It comes after Channel 4 breaks silence after Gogglebox couple suddenly dumped from show. Natalie, who has been mentored by professional chef Tony Singh for the show, said that she "loves" cooking at home. The actor however spoke to WhatToWatch recently about how the experience differed from that. She recalled having used vegetable stock instead of vegetable oil while practising at home. Natalie continued by telling the outlet: "Usually I'm cooking with a glass of wine with the radio on, leisurely doing a bit of washing and talking to the kids, but this is a completely different ball game." Natalie said: "You have a recipe and you don't have any time to think about it at all." Teasing over one of Sonia's job on EastEnders, she said: "This is not the cafe on Albert Square, I need to produce high-end grub and I'm bricking it!" She also shared that she signed up for the show to expand her culinary abilities, revealing that her "staples" include roast dinners and spaghetti. Natalie said they are "good basics" but wanted to learn more about herbs, spices and different cultures through the competition show. The former soap star said that she wanted to "impress" her two children in the kitchen. Natalie teased that she also hoped to learn where the chefs "go to eat," saying that she wants to get a list of restaurants and "hidden gems". Whilst speaking to the outlet, Natalie revealed her strengths and weaknesses when it comes to the competition element of Cooking with the Stars. The show sees celebrities go head-to-head in the kitchen before being judged. Natalie said that being "organised" is among her strengths. She shared her dislike for "lateness," adding that she's "very aware of time" which she hoped would prove beneficial on the show when it comes to timings over her cooking. She then admitted that her weakness is "the chopping side of things". Natalie told the outlet that loved ones will often offer to take over chopping items if next to her in the kitchen because the actor is an "Awkward Annie".

EastEnders icon Rita Simons takes drastic action after getting 'too many' facial fillers
Former EastEnders actress Rita Simons has opened up about dissolving her facial fillers after feeling she had overused them and sharing her regret Rita Simons has revealed she is having her facial fillers dissolved. The actress, known for her role as Roxy Mitchell on EastEnders and currently starring in Hollyoaks, admitted on Instagram that she felt she had gone too far with cosmetic enhancements. The 47-year-old soap star shared that she is working with Dr Stephen Hennessy, a facial aesthetics expert, to remove filler that had accumulated over time. 'I'm not one to pretend I don't have a little tweakage,' Simons wrote. "But I've really regretted having fillers over the years. It comes after the former EastEnders actress announced her engagement in a collection of loved-up snaps. "They have built up over time and I was starting to resemble a pillow. So lovely Dr Hennessy started dissolving them last week and today we've done the last bit," she said of her latest cosmetic procedure. Rita added that while she isn't against fillers, she has learned the importance of moderation. 'I'm not adverse to fillers but I've definitely learnt you need to be super careful about overdoing it,' she said. The much-loved soap also preempted criticism with a message for those who might say she doesn't need any cosmetic work. 'FYI in advance for the 'you don't need it' comments… I know! That's why it's going." Rita rose to fame playing Roxy Mitchell in EastEnders alongside Samantha Womack's Ronnie Mitchell. The sisters' storylines were iconic, and their characters were dramatically killed off in 2017. Since then, Rita has joined the cast of Hollyoaks as Marie Fielding, mother to Joel Dexter, Abe Fielding, and Arlo Fielding. Her character has been involved in several major storylines, including a brief affair with longtime fan-favourite Tony Hutchinson. Back in January, Rita announced she's officially engaged to Ben Harlow. At the time, she took to social media to share happy snaps of the new engagement, with the caption: "….so this happened!" In the pictures, the dazzling ring could be seen placed on her finger as the two posed for snaps in the comfort of their own home. Of her romance, Rita previously said Ben is "the loveliest man on the planet" and that it's only because she's "so happy" now she can see what a "mess" she was. Before being in a relationship with Ben, she was married to Theo Silverston. However, she faced a huge hurdle when she split from him after 14 years together. The actress had been "growing apart" from the hairdresser and they decided to end their relationship after a period of separation. Unfortunately, the duo's split caused Rita to struggle with depression, insomnia and more. In the end, the cocktail of stress, pressure and heartbreak caused her to suffer a nervous breakdown. It's no surprise Rita described that period as "one of the worst times" of her life. In an interview with OK! Magazine, Rita explained: "I was physically ill every other week and I lost loads of weight. "Every night I would go on stage in the West End in Everybody's Talking About Jamie having just had some fraught conversation with Theo, and later on having just received legal letters. "And I would just cry, go on stage, come off, cry and respond. I also had terrible insomnia for about a year. When I'm unhappy, my sleep is the first thing to go and then the knock-on is the depression and anxiety." She is now planning her wedding with Ben after finding her happily ever after.

Wynne Evans splits from fiancee Liz for second time and is ‘already dating again'
See what the star had to say about relationships today wynne some, lose some Wynne Evans splits from fiancee Liz for second time and is 'already dating again' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WYNNE Evans has split from his fiance - just months after popping the question. The singer, 53, and Liz Brookes are said to have called it quits a few weeks ago and he appeared to confirm the break up speaking to fans today. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Wynne Evans has split from his fiancee Liz Brookes Credit: Instagram / Wynne Evans 4 The singer is said to be dating again after the break up Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The pair previously split in January of this year but reunited just weeks later. This morning, the Strictly star told his followers on Facebook Live: 'I haven't felt this level headed for years, having been in a bad place or a relationship that is not healthy for me. It's now calm.' An insider told the MailOnline: 'Wynne and Liz broke off their engagement a few weeks ago. 'The pressure of his new business ventures took its toll and they had a big fallout. 'Initially, there was a belief they would get back together when the ill-feeling died down, as they had split before and managed to patch things up. 'But with Wynne actively trying to date again and going public describing the relationship as 'not healthy', it's safe to say they've split from good this time.' Wynne started his own radio show following his BBC axing for making a crude remark on the Strictly Live Tour launch event. He was dropped from the tour and his BBC Wales radio show was canned. He is also opening his own restaurant and winebar - 'Welsh House by Wynne' in Carmarthen, West Wales. Wynne popped the question to Liz on holiday in Morocco in June of this year, after she loyally stood by him amid his BBC fallout. Joy for Wynne Evans as he gets engaged after months of hell following Strictly drama He told fans at the time: "Big news… I got engaged! "This weekend in Morocco, somewhere between the couscous, the camels, and me limping around the souks like a man with no spatial awareness, I proposed to Liz — and she said yes! (No take-backs, I've checked.) "She's clever, she's kind, she's got excellent taste in men. Absolutely no idea how I pulled that off, but here we are! "Feeling very lucky, very happy, and just a tiny bit smug." Liz, 50, who runs her own successful events company in Cardiff, met the star at one of her do's in Wales. He asked her out for a coffee the next day, and they were together for 18 months before he proposed. The Sun has contacted Wynne's rep for comment. 4 Liz was by Wynne's side throughout the Strictly scandal Credit: instagram/@wynneevans 4 Wynne appeared on Strictly parterned with Katya Jones Credit: The Mega Agency
