Ross Marshall (Alex Walkinshaw) apologises to Joel for their earlier argument, unaware that Joel has hit Vicki.

At The Queen Vic, Vicki seeks help, while Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall) agrees to help Joel, who plays down the extent of his attack on Vicki.

Tommy hides Joel in the Slaters’ garage, but his half-sister Zoe (Michelle Ryan) senses something is up and tries to make Tommy see sense.

As Tommy remains quiet on Joel’s whereabouts, Ross is horrified to learn of Vicki’s ordeal, and tries to shut down rumours that Joel is behind it.

At the hospital, Ross is relieved to hear that Vicki will recover, but as the week continues, tensions simmer between Vicki and Ross as they discuss Joel.

2. Harry Mitchell kept prisoner by Ravi Gulati and Tobias “Okie” Okyere

Teddy Mitchell (Roland Manookian) turns to George Knight (Colin Salmon) when he’s unable to locate Harry, but George insists that Harry is safe with Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho).

When Harry calls his dad, Teddy and Gina Knight (Francesca Henry) are satisfied all is well, but they have no idea that in reality, Okie and Ravi have got Harry and have forced him to make the call.

Harry begs to be released, but Okie refuses unless Harry reveals where the hidden camera is linked to.

Okie bumps into Gina and when he flirts with her, she gives him her number.

Despite Harry giving them information, Ravi and Okie refuse to let him go. Meanwhile, Okie is given a warning by rival drug dealers for selling on their turf and orders Ravi to sort it out.

On his end, Ravi suggests a holiday to daughter Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James) and Okie is thrilled to be left in charge.

But although Ravi instructs him to let Harry go, Okie has other ideas, telling Harry he’s going to try and win Gina’s affections.

Okie angers Harry when he reveals he’s going on a date with Gina, while Gina confides in Anna that she’s worried there’s something serious going on with Harry.

A broken Harry later takes drugs to escape his reality, as Okie toys with his emotions.
