Surely Peggy and Archie could get an annulment as it was hardly a marriage :confused:

[Perdita]

Should not be a problem, the marriage was not even consumated as they split during the reception

[Kim]

Why is Owen in prison now?

Does Roxy know about Jack and Sam?

I read something somewhere about Lucas going to see Owen and trying to provoke him. So maybe Owen rises to it and Lucas goes to the police.

astEnders' Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) reveals her kinky side in a fortnight's time when she strips down to her saucy underwear for her flatmate and on-off love interest Ryan Malloy (Neil McDermott).

Frustrated and somewhat jealous by Janine's game of 'pull a pensioner' in her quest to screw Archie out of The Vic, Ryan questions why she's pursuing him more than she need. Janine, however, assures Ryan that she's in it for the long haul - she's after more than a quick fumble.

Later that day in The Vic's barrel store, Janine lets Ryan know that she wants to be more than just friends with him, before undoing her coat and revealing her skimpy negligee. With that, Ryan grabs her and the pair passionately kiss.

These scenes air on Tuesday, November 17 at 7.30pm on BBC One.

Archie continues to meddle in Sam's life

Airs on Monday, November 16 2009 at 20:00 GMT on BBC One

Archie wanders into The Vic and asks Roxy to call Peggy for him. Roxy, however, reminds him that he shouldn't be in there as Peggy barred him. While waiting for Peggy, Archie talks to Jack about Sam and claims that she won't last long if she's sent to prison. Having seen the pair kiss the previous week, Archie suggests that Jack should help Sam because she trusts him. Jack's left thoughtful, while Roxy eventually tells Archie that Peggy's not even in - she's at Aunt Sal's. Later, Janine turns up at Archie's house with a solicitor in tow - she's hoping that Mr Stewart will speed up Archie's divorce process. Archie's seemingly not bothered by the lawyer's presence, but his interested is piqued when he discovers that he works in criminal law, too.

Later, Archie's having lunch with Sam at Fargo's and he broaches the subject of prison. Sam claims that she's prepared for whatever life behind bars has in store for her if she's sent down, but Archie suggests that she get a second opinion on her legal position. When introduced to Mr Stewart, Sam's despondent to hear that the outlook's bleak. Archie tries to convince Sam to run away but Ricky's stunned when she admits what she's thinking of doing. However, the realisation that she could lose her family causes her to think twice about her 'plan', before admitting that she has to face up to what she's done wrong. Archie brands her a brave girl, but he's frustrated that his plan hasn't worked.

Realising that there's only one thing for it, Archie informs Bianca that he saw Sam and Jack kissing. With that, Bianca storms over to The Vic and confronts a stunned Ricky with the news…

Meanwhile, Phil makes a phone call while eating his breakfast. As he stares at the loss adjuster's business card, the person on the other end of the phone answers and Phil suggests that they have a chat. Later, Phil and Max are talking in The Vic and a furious Phil demands that 'they' have to pay back the money that 'they' stole - and Max has until 3pm to find the cash. Tanya interrupts them and she accidentally drops her scarf, which Phil picks up with a devilish look on his face. In the café, Phil reminds Max that the clock's ticking and threatens to go to the police if he doesn't find the money in time.

Max returns home and is surprised to find Phil talking to Tanya as he 'found' her scarf. Tanya then asks Phil to stay for dinner and he happily obliges. As Tanya heads upstairs to see baby Oscar, Phil reminds Max that he's running out of time to pay up and when Phil threatens to tell Tanya, Max agrees to cough up the cash.

Elsewhere, Denise is frustrated by Libby's preoccupation with arranging for Owen to be re-released from prison; Jack offers to babysit baby Amy for Roxy but Roxy continues to evade his requests; Libby visits Owen and he asks how much she really knows about Lucas; Libby's furious to learn that Lucas told the police about Owen; Denise learns of Lucas's actions and turns to Patrick for advice; Roxy tells Jack that she knows he still loves Ronnie; and when Libby comes to blows with Lucas over dinner, Denise calls the wedding off.

Bianca and Sam come to blows

Airs on Tuesday, November 17 2009 at 19:30 GMT on BBC One

Bianca's washing up in the kitchen as Ricky walks in, still confused over her revelation about Sam and Jack the previous evening. Spurred on by Bianca, Ricky goes to confront his fiancée over her fling with Jack. Sam tries play the news down, which only serves to anger Ricky further. She eventually admits to kissing Jack but all isn't what it seems. Ricky later goes to see Bianca in the café and suggests that she stop believing gossip because Sam only kissed Jack on the cheek for helping to find her a new solicitor. At the same time, Sam asks Archie why he told Bianca about her and Jack but Archie feigns ignorance, stating that he made an innocent remark which Bianca made into a big deal. In the hope of placating her, he hands her some cash to go shopping with.

Later, Archie betrays Sam when he assures Bianca that what he saw between Sam and Jack was more than a peck on the cheek, before suggesting that she ask Jack if she wants proof. Following her uncle out of the pub, Bianca
confronts him about his affair with Sam. With that, Jack admits that it was 'a bit of fun' that's now ended because Sam realised that she loves Ricky too much to risk their relationship. Storming upstairs in The Vic, Bianca grabs Sam from behind and drags her downstairs into the bar and pushes her into Ricky, demanding that she confess to her adultery. Bianca goes on to reveal Jack's admission, which tips Roxy over the edge, prompting her to throw Sam out.

On the Square, Sam pleads with Ricky to give her another chance but he's dismissive and insists that she doesn't know what love is. As Ricky walks away, Archie appears, hands her a tissue and says: "It's gonna be alright. Uncle Archie's here…"

Meanwhile, Phil bursts into Max's house and shouts for Tanya. As she leaves, Phil suggests that Max pay up by the end of the day or Tanya will find out about his scam. Later in the café, Max overhears that Shirley has given Heather
some winnings. It doesn't take him long to ask Heather whether she's thought about life insurance. She's concerned about the money involved but Max assures her that she'll easily be able to afford it. Before she knows it, she's signing a contract and agrees to pay up. Max later goes to see Phil and passes off Heather's money as his own. It's not enough, though, and Phil demands the balance.

Elsewhere, Janine asks Archie about the status of his divorce; Lucas tries to patch things up with Denise and insists that he didn't mean to hurt her or Libby by calling the police about Owen; Ryan asks Janine about her game of 'pull a pensioner' but she suggests that he's only jealous; Denise visits Owen in prison where he claims that he can see Lucas for what he is and insists that Lucas killed Trina; Janine assures Ryan that she's in it for the long haul with Archie; Denise tells Lucas, Libby and Chelsea that she went to visit Owen and that the wedding's back on; and things get steamy between Ryan and Janine in The Vic's barrel store.

Archie convinces Sam to flee Walford

Airs on Thursday, November 19 2009 at 19:30 GMT on BBC One

At Archie's house, Sam layers herself in make-up as she prepares to head out in an attempt to make peace with Ricky. Archie, however, tells her not to make a fool out of herself as Ricky won't take her back after learning of her affair with Jack. With that, Archie hands her a pile of money to his puzzled niece and states that he wants to see her through the trouble. He goes on to claim that if she goes to prison, she'll always be indebted to her family, and cash, therefore, is her route to freedom. As Sam counts the wad of notes, Peggy hammers on the door, before storming in demanding that she return to The Vic with her. Peggy lays into her devastated daughter about the affair with Jack, before calling her greedy and selfish. As Sam leaves, Phil suggests that Peggy go easy on Sam as she'll push her away - and if Sam runs, the Mitchells will lose her bail money and propel the family into financial ruin.

Later in The Vic, Ricky goes to meet with Phil but Sam's there, too. Seizing the opportunity, she profusely apologises to Ricky for her actions and admits that her wedding day to him was the happiest she's ever been. With that, Ricky decides to forgive her. Having cleared the air with Ricky, Sam returns Archie's cash to him and reveals that she and Ricky are back on and she has her mother and brother's support. Later, Sam tells Peggy that she and Ricky might move in together, but she takes her mother's response as her being doubtful over her future with Ricky. Sam's appeased, though, when Peggy hands her a dress for the Children In Need dance contest.

While Ricky waits for Sam to arrive at the dance competition, Pat urges him to dance with Bianca until his fiancée arrives. They're reluctant at first but they relent and soon take to the dance floor. While Sam stares at herself in the mirror, she questions her life and the choices she has: settle for a life with Ricky and her patronising mother in Walford or take Archie's money and run. When Peggy returns to The Vic to see what's taking Sam so long, she only finds her dress and a note. Returning to the dance contest, Peggy interrupts a 'moment' between Ricky and Bianca to show Ricky the note Sam's left. Meanwhile, Archie's helping Sam into a taxi, hands her a pile of cash and assures her that she's doing the right thing by leaving…

Elsewhere, Jack's concerned that Ronnie will find out about his affair with Sam; Dr Al wants to invite Roxy to be his date for Denise and Lucas's wedding, but Chelsea flirts with him instead; Liz visits Owen in prison where he reiterates that he's concerned for Libby and Denise's safety; Chelsea presumes that Al is asking her to attend the wedding with him; Lucas admits to Liz that he may have misjudged Owen; and when Liz informs Owen that Lucas will do right by Denise and Libby, Owen tells Liz that he'll deal with Lucas himself…

Note that there is no episode of EastEnders on Friday, November 20 due to Children In Need. The next episode will air on Monday, November 23 at 8pm on BBC One.

[tammyy2j]

So Sam flees :cheer:

[Perdita]

ARCHIE'S evil plot to destroy the Mitchells finally comes to a head as he persuades Sam to leave town.

He exposes her affair with Jack, then gives her money so she can flee the country!

"Archie promises to make everything all right if she runs away," says Danniella Westbrook, who plays Sam.

"And Sam trusts him."

As the week begins, Archie tries to scare his niece about going to jail.

But Sam insists she's ready to stand trial for covering up Dirty Den's murder.

Annoyed, Archie tries a different ploy * and reveals to Bianca that he saw Sam and Jack getting passionate!

"Bianca tells Ricky and he confronts Sam," explains Danniella.

"She lies that she only kissed him."

But when Bianca grills Jack in the Square about the affair, he admits it is true.

Bianca storms into The Vic, marches upstairs and attacks Sam, then drags her into the bar and orders her to come clean to Ricky.

Sam tearfully apologises to her fiancé and insists that she loves him, but a raging Ricky rejects her!

Right on cue, Archie turns up with a tissue and offers to help!

He warns Sam that Ricky won't take her back * then hands her a wad of cash, saying it's her ticket to freedom.

Archie knows that if Sam skips town, the Mitchells face bankruptcy, as they put up the £250,000 bail money.

Later, when Peggy lays into her about her fling with Jack, Sam decides she can't take any more.

She slopes off to meet Archie, who waves goodbye as she leaves Walford in a cab!

"Sam doesn't want to lose her family again," sighs Danniella.

"But she's so afraid of prison that she takes the money and disappears."
