Kathy Beale has no idea of the shock in store on the day of her wedding to Rocky Cotton

Kathy Beale is excited on the morning of her wedding to Rocky Cotton. Although the couple have had their ups and downs, Rocky has really captured her heart and she's been waiting for this day for a long time...

After Rocky proposed to her, Kathy was delighted, but she was left in shock when Rocky later confessed that he was still married to a woman named Jo Cotton!

After tracking Jo down, he talked her into giving him a divorce. Kathy agreed to put the unfortunate incident behind them, forging ahead with their wedding plans.

Now the big day has finally arrived, it seems Rocky is hiding ANOTHER secret from his bride-to-be after a shock twist at his stag party...

Confiding in Kathy's Maid of Honour, Sonia Fowler, Rocky reluctantly sees sense in 'fessing up before the wedding goes ahead.

Barely believing what she's hearing, Kathy is devastated that he's disappointed her yet again. It seems that the wedding may off, as Kathy admits to Elaine Peacock that she's not sure if she can go through with marrying Rocky.

When her son Ben Mitchell arrives with something special however, Kathy is persuaded to go through with the ceremony.

Rocky nervously waits for Kathy at the Register Office but things are about to take a nightmare turn...

With Phil looking after granddaughter Peggy Taylor after her nan Lisa Fowler brought the tot over from Portugal, a lot is at stake for Peggy's dad Keanu.

Despite Sharon's encouragement to 'fess up, Keanu is reluctant, insisting that Phil is sure to keep him from seeing his daughter if he tells him what he's done.

Determined to sort things out, Sharon visits Phil and begs him to let Keanu see Peggy. But she's shocked when Phil reveals what Lisa was really up to in the Square.

When Sharon prompts Keanu to tell Phil the truth, he hedges and a frustrated Sharon spills the beans, much to Keanu's horror.

What will Phil do?

Stacey Slater is left in a VERY awkward situation on the morning of Kathy Beale's wedding to Rocky Cotton...

Although Eve Unwin arranged for teacher Theo Hawthorne to be Stacey's plus one, she drunkenly left her ex Martin Fowler a voicemail asking him to accompany her!

Stacey has no recollection of the call she made to Martin and she squirms when she's faced with the arrival of both Theo AND Martin.

When Martin suggests she ditch Theo in favour of him, Stacey is left torn.

Also, Ravi Gulati asks Phil Mitchell to give his girlfriend Chelsea Fox her job back at the club and Phil agrees but ominously tells Ravi that now he owes him one..


TUESDAY

Jo Cotton makes Rocky Cotton sweat when she turns up to see him get wed

Jo Cotton is a surprise guest at Rocky Cotton and Kathy Beale's nuptials, and the last person that Rocky was expecting to see!

After proposing to Kathy, Rocky was forced to confess that he was still married to Jo, although they hadn't seen each other in 25 years.

Rocky asked Sonia Fowler and Reiss Colwell to help track her down so he could start the process of divorce.

When they failed to find her, Freddie Slater went on the case and invited her to Albert Square.

Kathy was NOT pleased when she was confronted by Jo her on her own doorstep!

Determined to make life difficult for Rocky, Jo took her time agreeing to the divorce. But it seemed things had gone through just in time, after Jo brought the papers to the Square for Rocky to sign.

Now Jo has turned up at the ceremony and Rocky's heart is in his mouth.

What does she want and is she about to derail the wedding?

Lisa Fowler has left her granddaughter little Peggy Taylor being looked after in Albert Square and things are kicking off in her absence!

Phil Mitchell has found out that Keanu Taylor has been up to something he shouldn't have, while Keanu has discovered why Lisa really brought his daughter Peggy to Walford.

When Lisa arrives back she discovers that Peggy's granddad Phil Mitchell is looking after her. She heads to the Mitchells' to collect Peggy and return to their home in Portugal where they live with Peggy's mum Louise Mitchell.

Lisa is in for a big shock, however, as she finds herself confronted by Phil and his fiancee Kat Slater along with Keanu and his fiancee Sharon Watts.

Grim-faced, they reveal that they have spoken to Louise and they know the whole truth about Lisa's surprise visit.

As her lies start to fall apart, Lisa realises she's got nowhere left to hide.

Can she explain herself?

Stacey Slater feels stuck in the middle at Kathy Beale's wedding... Literally!

She ended up double-booked for her date for the day and now Theo Hawthorne and Martin Fowler are sitting either side of her.

When Theo tries to wind up Martin by turning on the charm and kissing Stacey's hand, she feels awkward.

Completely oblivious to the fact that creepy Theo is Stacey's mystery Secret Cam client, she does her best to be polite.

But she's feeling conflicted over her feelings for her ex-husband Martin, as there's no doubt that there's been a lot of chemistry between them recently.

After talking to mum Jean Slater about her dilemma, she has food for thought when Jean urges her not to get in the way of her own happiness by over thinking things.

Will Stacey broach her feelings for Martin with him?



WEDNESDAY

Sharon Watts tries to keep Lisa Fowler on side

When she finds her in a bad situation, she takes pity on her and offers to help her out. Sharon's fiance Keanu, father to Lisa's granddaughter Peggy Taylor, can't believe that Sharon would have any dealings with Lisa after the recent shock revelations.

After seeing messages on Lisa's phone from gambling sites, Sharon later spots her coming out of the bookies.

Taking Lisa to one side, she confronts her about her gambling addiction. When Lisa opens up to Sharon, she vows to sort things and approaches Phil, begging him to give Lisa a chance.

Keanu is still stewing about Lisa lies and he's determined to get proper access to his daughter.

When Lisa makes a concession and offers him regular video calls, will it be enough to placate him?

Rocky Cotton and Kathy Beale's wedding day should have been a beautiful affair but the fly in the ointment was an unplanned appearance by Rocky's former wife Jo Cotton!

After she turned up at the Register Office, it was clear she was out for revenge on her ex and it seems her plan finally came together...

Will Rocky and Kathy be able to weather the storm?

Martin Fowler and Stacey Slater steel themselves for another family conference with the Branning family.

As their young daughter Lily Slater's pregnancy progresses, there are things to sort out between the two families and Lily's babyfather Ricky Mitchell.

Realising how hard Stacey has fought for Lily and her baby's future, Martin is in awe of her resilience.

Seeing how much Martin cares for Stacey, Even Unwin encourages Stacey to give things another go with her ex.

A lot of water has gone under the bridge since their break up four years ago, and Stacey's not sure she wants to go back there.

Can Eve convince her otherwise?


THURSDAY

Lisa Fowler fears Keanu Taylor is trying to trap her

Lisa Fowler is on edge after all her secrets and lies were revealed and she's desperate to leave for abroad.

After her ill-judged visit to the Square, Lisa can't wait to put recent events behind her and return home to granddaughter Peggy Taylor's mum Louise Mitchell in Portugal.

Flights for her and Peggy are booked but it's clear Peggy's dad Keanu Taylor is not going to give his daughter up without a fight!

A desperate Lisa accuses Keanu of trying to keep her and Peggy in the UK.

After the recent revelations, Keanu is insistent that Peggy is better off with him and his fiancee Sharon Watts.

Enlisting lawyer Eve Unwin's help, he tries to get a last-minute court order in place to stop Lisa taking Peggy and leaving the country.

Determined not to let Keanu trap her and her granddaughter in Walford, Lisa does what it takes to make the flight to Portugal that evening.

Will her plan work?

Stacey Slater has been hopeful that romance could blossom again with her ex Martin Fowler. Despite a messy break up, they've been good friends of late and Martin has always been a good dad to the kids.

Martin doesn't realise is that Stacey is keeping secrets from him and still doing cam work for a private client.

When she braces herself to tell him the truth, Martin is concerned, worrying that she could be putting herself in danger.

Now she's come to rely on the money, Stacey is reluctant to give it up and she's angered by Martin's disapproval.

Getting defensive, Stacey insists that she's her own person and she'll do what she wants, leading to a row.

Are things over between them before they can even begin?
