Eastenders Spoilers from the 6th to 10th of June 2016

[tammyy2j]

Lauren and Abi Branning will attempt to reach out to their estranged dad Max next month, in the wake of the recent revelations about Bobby Beale.

The Walford residents were left stunned last week after Bobby publicly admitted to killing his sister Lucy back in 2014, and upcoming episodes will see the focus continue to turn to wrongly-accused Max.

Max has spent the past 8 months in jail for the crime, but his daughter Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa) has now returned to Walford in the hope of getting him justice now the truth is out in the open.

Despite her determination to support her dad, Lauren will be stopped in her tracks when she learns that Max has banned her and Abi (Lorna Fitzgerald) from visiting him.

The Branning sisters problems intensify when Abi is unable to face Max on the day of his court hearing, leaving Lauren to come up with another way to support him.

Deciding to write Max a letter, Lauren reaches out to her dad and explains that she and Abi will be waiting for him if he wants to be a family again.

Lauren later hands the letter to Stacey (Lacey Turner) - who is attending the hearing - but will it prompt Max to reach out to his family? Or have the Brannings been torn apart for good?

EastEnders airs these scenes on Thursday, June 9 at 7.30pm

Something a lot of us have been waiting for with baited breath!

I think if I was Max I wouldn't want any more to do with them - leaving him in jail for 8 months. One dobbing him in it in the first place, the other knowing he was innocent.

Monday

Donna is regretting her drunken actions from last night, but she confides in Pam that she really wants a baby. As talk turns to the current poor state of the market, Pam suggests that Donna should take over as the new market inspector.

When Vincent arrives, Donna tells him her news and drops another huge bombshell - she wants him to be the father of her baby.

Meanwhile, Ronnie is still worried about Roxy and takes her out for some drinks. Ronnie tries to talk to her about Andy, but Roxy refuses to open up. However, as Ronnie continues to offer advice, Roxy eventually comes round and messages Andy.

Elsewhere, Lauren is upset when she learns that Max has stopped her and Abi from visiting him. She seeks support from Kathy, who comforts her by pointing out that she's part of the Beale family now. Lauren embraces this by helping out at the restaurant.

Also today, the residents get more than they bargained for at the salsa class when Kim reveals herself as the tutor. Pam quickly leaves when Babe arrives, and she then comes clean to Paul about the ongoing blackmail drama. Back at the community centre, Carmel clashes with Kim over her teaching methods.


Tuesday

Paul encourages Les to take a stand over the blackmail problem. Taking this on board, Les visits Babe and warns that he's prepared to go the police about her - even if it means the truth about Christine comes out. However, when Babe realises that Pam doesn't know about Les calling her bluff, she retaliates by upping the payment demands.

Pam is devastated and still doesn't want the truth to come out, which puts her marriage under strain. Soon afterwards, Claudette arrives and shows her support. Les admits that he misses Christine, so Claudette reveals that she still has some of her things. As a result, Les secretly decides to wear Christine's clothes.

Meanwhile, Vincent initially refuses to be the father of Donna's baby, but eventually agrees to talk to Kim about it after Donna makes a heartfelt plea. Unfortunately, the moment is lost when Carmel arrives to confront Kim about why she was banned from the salsa show, prompting a dance-off between the pair.

Vincent returns to Donna and tells her that he's having doubts, but when Kim realises he is hiding something, it's time for him to come clean...


Thursday

Max's court hearing has arrived, so Lauren tells Abi they need to be there for him. In the end, Abi decides that she can't face Max, so Lauren suggests they should write a letter to him instead to say they're there for him if he wants to be a family again.

Lauren hands the letter to Stacey, explaining that it says they'll be waiting at The Vic. Will Max reach out to his family?

Meanwhile, Pam is in a better mood and even suggests that Ben should stay the night, leaving Les feeling guilty about what he did the night before. Les tries to get rid of Christine's belongings but can't bring himself to do it. As everyone settles for the night, a struggling Les once again becomes Christine, but as he puts on her wig, someone walks in...

Elsewhere, Kim and Patrick both confront Vincent and Donna together. Will they be able to change Vincent's mind? Vincent is also furious when he realises that Kim has reached out to Claudette, but whose side will Claudette be on?

Also today, Louise plays games with Bex and tells her to pretend she doesn't like Shakil in order to make him fight for her.


Friday

Meanwhile, despite Louise's efforts, Bex finds herself alone with Shakil but Martin arrives and finds the pair together.

It's a shame we won't see Max for this.

EastEnders' Max Branning snubs his daughters Lauren and Abi in the trailer for Monday's episode (June 6).

The sisters stopped off for a coffee on their way to see him in prison, when they received an email telling them they'd been taken off the visitors list.

Max is currently serving time behind bars after being found guilty of Lucy Beale's murder last year.


Tune in to Monday's episode at 8pm on BBC One to see how Lauren and Abi deal with the rejection.
