Oscar Branning (Pierre Moullier) makes a desperate attempt for cash in EastEnders next week – with devastating consequences for one resident.
As viewers of the BBC One soap know, Oscar is desperate to evade thuggish associate Fat Mike (Tai Hilferink), who he grassed up to the police for stealing a car.
In retaliation, Mike attempted to petrol bomb his house, and has continued to try and seek revenge by leaving a series of threatening messages and, in last week’s episodes, left a knife in the kitchen chopping board as a stark warning of what he’s capable of.
After the two lads came face to face in Monday’s instalment, a paranoid Oscar attacked a hooded figure in the hallway of sister Lauren’s (Jacqueline Jossa) house, believing it to be Mike.
…but it was Peter (Thomas Law)!
In upcoming scenes, Mike is back on the scene and announces he needs £5,000 in exchange for Oscar’s family’s safety.
At a loose end with where to find the cash, Oscar makes an attempt at forming a business deal with Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt), but his attempts fall flat and he has to confess all to Lauren.
Will she offer to help?

Across the Square, Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker) has been betting against his fiancée Yolande’s (Angela Wynter) wishes, and is on cloud nine to see he and Howie Danes (Delroy Atkinson) have bagged a whopping £6,000!
Yolande is furious – having already warned that she’d call off their upcoming wedding if she found him gambling again – but little does she realise, the money won’t be staying in his hands for long.
The family are all in The Vic when Oscar foolishly breaks into the Fox-Trueman household in a bid to steal the winnings, but is caught in the act by Patrick.
