MONDAY

Denise Fox is worried about her stepdaughter Amy Mitchell when she pulls a sickie from school.

Deciding to stay home to look after her, Denise is unaware that Amy is secretly drinking in her room.

When a tipsy Amy acts out, Denise is taken aback, not knowing why she's being so confrontational.

Chelsea works out straight away that Amy's been on the booze and she tips off a disbelieving Denise.

Searching for proof, Denise finds the evidence and she angrily confronts the teenager. Amy kicks off and blurts out the reason she's acting so out of control...

She knows about Denise's affair with Ravi Gulati!

Will Amy share Denise's dirty little secret with her dad, Denise's husband Jack Branning?

Ravi Gulati appears to be completely smitten with Chelsea Fox and he's determined to win her over.

Chelsea has been cautious in her new relationship with Ravi but she can't help but be charmed by him.

After convincing her to attend Nish Panesar's birthday party at Walford East, Ravi decides to really impress her...

When Chelsea opens a posh gift box she's delighted to discover a beautiful designer dress! Bernie Taylor and Felix Baker are overawed by Ravi's thoughtful present.

Feeling like a million dollars, Chelsea gets glammed up for the party and when she arrives at the restaurant, Ravi introduces her as his 'girlfriend'.

Is Ravi really taking their relationship seriously or is he just using her for his own ends?

Suki Panesar gets ready for her husband Nish Panesar's birthday party at Walford East, but she's left reeling when she finds out that her son Kheerat Panesar's trial has been brought forward.

Kheerat decided to take the fall for his mum for killing her attacker Ranveer Gulati, lying that he was the one to blame.

What neither of them knows is that Ravi Gulati actually finished off the businessman after Suki whacked Ranveer over the head with a heavy object while he was trying to rape her.

With the trial confirmed, the reality of what Kheerat has done to protect her hits her like a ton of bricks and she's wracked with guilt.

The evening starts to fall apart as Suki and Nish's son Vinny Panesar gets upset after some mean comments from Nish. Vinny storms off home and feeling bad that her son has been belittled by his dad yet again, Suki tries to console him.


TUESDAY

Denise Fox is wracked with guilt - and terror - after discovering that her stepdaughter Amy Branning knows about her fling with Ravi Gulati!

Although Denise put a stop to her romantic entanglement with Ravi before things went too far, she's had to deal with her feelings of shame at betraying husband Jack Branning.

Not only that, criminal Ravi also tried to blackmail Denise into getting him information on cop Jack's official police investigation into him.

After seeing the terrible effect news of her affair has had on Amy, Denise realises that the game is up.

She confesses to a stunned Jack but tries to cover the extent of her lies by downplaying what really went on between them.

Denise attempts to pass off her attraction to Ravi as a minor blip, hoping that Jack won't go off the deep end.

Unfortunately for Denise, Jack knows his wife too well, and he soon works out that she was much more involved with criminal Ravi and his scheming than she's willing to let on!

Enraged, Jack storms through the Square, intent on confronting Ravi. When he finds him all hell breaks loose.

Will things end in bloodshed and has Denise lost her husband for good?

After the shock revelations about his fling with Denise, Ravi knows that his relationship with Denise's daughter Chelsea Fox is well and truly in trouble.

Although he initially hooked up with her as an in to the Branning household to keep tabs on copper Jack's investigation into him, he soon started to fall for the single mum.

Wary of his intentions at the start, Chelsea was won over as he showered her with gifts and compliments. A smitten Ravi even announced at his dad Nish Gulati's birthday party that Chelsea was his girlfriend!

It should be clear to Ravi that Chelsea is NOT going to want to have anything to do with him after finding out the truth but he holds out hope of keeping her.

Turning up on Chelsea's doorstep, he tries to convince her that he's fallen for her but a shocked and betrayed Chelsea insists she wants nothing more to do with him.

Has Ravi burned all his bridges in the Square?



WEDNESDAY

Suki Panesar has been trying to keep a lid on her emotions ever since finding out that her son Kheerat Panesar's trial for murder has been brought forward.

With reality setting in that Kheerat is about to be banged up for a very long time for killing Ranveer Gulati, Suki is awash with guilt.

Kheerat turned himself in for the murder in order to save Suki from arrest, as she was the one who clobbered Ranveer over the head with a heavy object after he tried to rape her.

Although Kheerat was determined to take the rap, the real murderer has kept his secret... Ravi Gulati finished off Ranveer and had his body disposed of!

At home, Suki makes a shocking discovery when she finds a hidden memory stick. It contains footage of her attacking Ranveer.

Terrified that there's evidence of the attack, Suki immediately suspects her controlling husband Nish Panesar of hiding the footage. She's sure that if she steps out of line, he'll use the footage as blackmail to keep her under a tight rein.

Later, Suki goes to retrieve the memory stick, but it's missing! A grim-faced Nish reveals that he has it in his possession...

Amy Mitchell continues to spiral out of control after finding out about her step-mum Denise Fox's affair with Ravi Gulati.

With everything out in the open after Denise dropped her bombshell confession on hubby Jack Branning, their household is falling apart.

Feeling like she should shoulder the burden of blame for outing the revelations, Amy is suffering. Matters aren't helped when she has run in with Ravi's son Nugget Gulati.

Needing someone to confide in, she turns to Denise's daughter Chelsea Fox, who has always been there for her in the past.

Instead of helping Amy through her panic, Chelsea lashes out at the teen, furious that she knew about Ravi and Denise and didn't say anything. Chelsea is doubly devastated as she's been dating Ravi and fallen for all his lies.

With nowhere left to turn, Amy can't take it any more and in her fear and frustration she trashes her bedroom, smashing a mirror.

Will Amy be tempted to self harm again?

Sharon Watts thinks Phil Mitchell's idea to host a community boxing match in the new boxing gym is great idea.

Despite harbouring doubts, her brother Zack Hudson is persuaded to sign up and learns he'll be fighting Phil's son Ben Mitchell.

When Sharon reveals that Zack will need to take a blood test as part of the standard medical for the match to check for transmittable diseases, he panics.

Still keeping his HIV diagnosis a secret from his nearest and dearest, he's terrified that his secret will be revealed.

Also, Kim Fox gets a letter about her impending court case for the car crash involving her stepson Denzel Danes and Howie Danes finds out the real reason behind the crash.



THURSDAY


Jack Branning is in a spin after the recent revelation by wife Denise Fox that she was having a secret fling with restaurant owner Ravi Gulati!

The Walford cop's problems seem to have been never ending in recent months. He's still on edge about daughter Amy Mitchell, who very nearly lost her life after cutting herself.

As Amy was the one who uncovered Denise's deception, prompting Denise to finally 'fess up, it's left her feeling desperate about dropping the family-sized bombshell.

When Amy's friend Lily Slater gets a worrying call from Amy, she hurries round to her house. She frantically bangs on the door, concerned that Amy could have done something to herself.

Jack hears Lily's shouts and he rushes over. Letting himself into the house, he finds Amy in her trashed bedroom with the smashed mirror.

Begging Amy to tell him if she's hurt herself, he's relieved that she's okay. Fearing that his reaction to Denise's betrayal has pushed Amy over the edge, he calls Denise.

They sit down with Amy to talk things through and make it clear to her that she's not to blame for what's happened.

Can they calm Amy down?

Zack Hudson has been feeling anxious ever since his sister Sharon Watts told him he'll need to take a blood test.

It's a routine part of the official medical for the upcoming community boxing match at the gym, but Zack had no idea.

Knowing that the test will reveal that he is HIV positive, he's been in a dilemma over what to do.

It's been a struggle for Zack to come to terms with his diagnosis and so far only friend Sam Mitchell and girlfriend Whitney Dean know the truth.

After talking things through with Whitney, he's grateful for her support and good advice.

Zack steels himself to reveal to Sharon and Martin that he can't be involved in the match, as he has HIV.

Martin's brother - and one of Sharon's great friends - Mark Fowler, lived with HIV, before dying in 2004 from an AIDS-related illness.

After Martin recently opened up to Zack about Mark on what would have been his brother's 55th birthday, Zack knows it will be difficult to have the conversation with him and Sharon.

Will he be brave enough to tell them the truth?
