Revenge for Alfie! :)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...l-romance.html
So sick and tired of these tit-for-tat actions, come on scriptwriters, lets have a relationship last and not have them cheating on each other ... not everyone does, you know !
EastEnders viewers will see Kat Moon reveal her secret lover in a dramatic Christmas episode.
Events are to come to a head in The Queen Vic, where Kat - played by Jesse Wallace - will reveal the identity of her mystery man in front of a room full of punters.
As her husband Alfie lunges for one of the Brannings - who earlier this month were revealed as the main suspects in the storyline - Kat will be forced to shout "You've got the wrong brother!" reports the Daily Star.
"It's the question that has been on everyone's lips for months - who is Kat's secret lover?" a show insider told the paper.
"The big revelation was always going to be in the Queen Vic in front of everyone and it will not disappoint. Jessie and Shane are both brilliant and this is one episode viewers will not want to miss.
"Alfie goes for one of the Branning brothers as he is convinced it's him who's been sleeping with his wife. Kat storms through the pub as he's got him on the floor and reveals the truth.
"We all got goosebumps as she yelled the line, 'You've got the wrong brother' and the comparisons were, of course, made to her showdown with Zoe. It really is classic 'Enders."
In 2001, Wallace took part in one of the most iconic scenes in the soap's recent history when she was involved in a showdown with her 'sister' Zoe Slater.
"You can't tell me what to do, you ain't my mother!" said Zoe (Michelle Ryan) during the row, before Kat dropped a bombshell by replying: "Yes I am!"
In recent weeks, viewers have seen Kat and Alfie try to repair their relationship, after Kat admitted cheating but said her husband did not know her lover.
When he discovers the truth, Alfie is initially devastated, but soon thinks he's worked out which Branning is involved. He plans to confront the culprit in The Queen Vic, but ends up targeting the wrong brother.
"It is down to Kat to reveal the truth," added the source. "Sadly it doesn't look like they'll be able to get over this one."
An EastEnders spokesman refused to confirm the reports, saying: "We do not comment on future storylines as we do not want to ruin it for our viewers."
^ Does anyone care anymore about Kat's lover?
I don't care about this storyline and never have, seems so pointless
EastEnders couple Kat and Alfie Moon have another big showdown ahead as Kat's affair storyline reaches a dramatic climax later this month.
Viewers will see Alfie (Shane Richie) become increasingly suspicious over Kat's behaviour in upcoming episodes, convinced that she has reunited with her mystery lover.
Desperate to find out whether he is right to be worried, Alfie puts a plan into action by telling Kat (Jessie Wallace) that he needs to go away for the night. However, his real intention is to secretly stick around in Walford and keep an eye on what she gets up to.
When Alfie follows Kat to a bedsit on Bridge Street, he is determined to discover the truth once and for all, so he smashes the door down to find Kat. But is she alone, and will she admit the truth?
EastEnders airs these scenes on Thursday, December 20 at 7.30pm on BBC One when Kat's lover will finally be revealed.

EastEnders star Shane Richie has said that viewers can expect a furious outburst from his character Alfie Moon when he demands the truth over Kat's mystery affair.
Earlier today, show bosses confirmed that the identity of Kat's secret lover will finally be revealed on Thursday, December 20, when Alfie takes action to find out whether he can really trust his wife.
Viewers will see Alfie tell Kat (Jessie Wallace) that he needs to go away for the night, but his real intention is to secretly stick around in Walford and keep an eye on what she gets up to.
When Alfie follows Kat to a bedsit on Bridge Street, he is determined to discover the truth once and for all, so he smashes the door down to find her.
As the Moons have another showdown over their troubled marriage, Alfie is shocked to discover that Kat's secret lover is one of the three Branning brothers.
Richie told Inside Soap: "This really tips him over the edge, and Alfie becomes a monster. He finally gets some balls and decides enough is enough. He tells Kat that he doesn't care about her anymore - he says she's filthy and disgusting."
He continued: "Alfie has kept going with Kat for the sake of their love and their history. But if he can't forgive her for this latest indiscretion, there's no way they can keep their family together.
"Jessie and I had a vested interest in getting this right, because our bosses gave us such a great opportunity. We spent a lot of time working on it - and I hope we've ticked every box."
Richie added that he was kept guessing over the identity of Kat's man for quite some time.
He explained: "When we were first told Kat would have a secret lover, I really thought it was Michael. Mind you, I really thought it was Ray at one point! So when we were finally told who it was, I went, 'Ah, I get it!' It's all very clever."
EastEnders continues tonight (December 3) at 8pm on BBC One.

EastEnders star Shane Richie has promised that the identity of Kat Moon's lover will surprise fans. As we know it is one of the Brannings it won't be much of a surprise!
Viewers will finally discover which of the three Branning brothers is Kat's mystery man on December 20 when Richie's character Alfie confronts his unfaithful wife over her lies.
As reported yesterday (December 3), Alfie takes action when he suspects that Kat (Jessie Wallace) is still having her affair, following her to the secret bedsit on Bridge Street and demanding answers.
The subsequent showdown between the Moons leads to Alfie finally discovering who Kat cheated on him with.
Asked by Radio Times whether the plot conclusion is surprising, Richie replied: "Oh, big time. And it's really interesting about how we play the Branning card as to which one of them it is.
"The way it's worded, you believe it's one brother in particular and then that all changes and you go, 'Oh, it's him!' Because we make people believe it's another Branning - the way it's worded, the way I face up to one of them.
"The audience will all think it's one person in particular, but then I throw a curve ball and it all kicks off. It's great."
Discussing why Kat visits the bedsit in the first place, the actor continued: "It's the whole remorse thing again about how she was there to tell him it was over, how she doesn't want to see him anymore. And when I get to the room and see petals on the bed and scented candles, I'm saying, 'Really? Is this how you're going to tell someone this is over, Kat?'
"And of course he doesn't believe that. She's dressed up for another night of passion, so he really doesn't believe it this time. He's done with the lying. In the past, Alfie has forgiven Kat, but this time I really do not think he's going to forgive her."
Richie also promised that the show will explore Kat's motivations for her fling with the mystery guy in question.
He said: "This will all come to fruition in the New Year and you'll kind of get to know why she has gone with this particular person. It's an ongoing story, which is really interesting, to see why Kat was with Alfie and why she went for this bloke, because they both offer her different things."

EastEnders love cheat Kat Moon may have a lonely Christmas ahead as she must finally face the consequences of her lies and deceit.
The identity of Kat's mystery Branning man will finally be revealed in a climactic episode airing on Thursday, December 20, leaving Alfie disgusted when he finds out that the guy in question is close to home.
As details of the big reveal are currently being kept firmly under wraps, we can only disclose so much of what the consequences are for Kat (Jessie Wallace) and Alfie (Shane Richie).
However, new pictures show that it doesn't look good for the Moons' future as Alfie completely blanks Kat when they come face-to-face at the local Santa's grotto.
Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) also appears to be aware that Kat has betrayed Alfie, as she is unable to hide how disappointed she is in a picture of the pair outside the Queen Vic.
It's no surprise that Roxy Mitchell will be supporting Alfie through his troubled time, and the pair are seen sharing an intimate moment under the mistletoe in other photos offering a sneak peek at Christmas on Albert Square. Is their romantic spark about to be revisited?
EastEnders continues tomorrow (December 6) at 7.30pm on BBC One.

EE writers seriously are beating a dead horse with these repeated stories,,,
It depends how they handle it. We have seen with the Jimmy Savile (et al) revelations how such incidents can affect people's lives for ever. If they explore Kat's feelings properly and why she does what she does and thinks like she does it could be an excellent storyline, especially given the real life backdrop. The problem is that knowing Eastenders it won't be handled sensitively or very well at all. But I always live in hope....
true but i am tired of hearing her always saying she is dirtyQuote:

EastEnders favourite Alfie Moon is left devastated next week as the reveal of Kat's mystery lover proves to be the final straw for his troubled marriage.
As most fans know by now, next week's episodes see Alfie finally discover the full story behind Kat's affair as he resorts to desperate measures to get the answers he craves.
When Alfie secretly follows Kat (Jessie Wallace) to a bedsit on George Street and demands an explanation for her latest deceit, the truth dramatically unfolds and his heart is ripped apart…
Digital Spy recently caught up with Shane Richie, who plays Alfie, to hear his thoughts on the big reveal and what fans can expect from the aftermath.
Are you excited about the truth finally coming out next week?
"Most definitely! We filmed the episode two months ago, so we've been sitting on this for a long time now. Kat and Alfie went off screen for a little while, but the storyline kicked in again last week when Alfie started becoming suspicious. The viewers will see that culminate next week when Alfie finally discovers who's been sleeping with his wife.
"Playing all of that has been brilliant, especially working with Jessie on those dramatic scenes. I think we do angst very well!"
What kind of a reaction are you expecting from fans when they finally find out the truth about Kat's lover?
"It's so tricky to answer that question without giving away the outcome! But right up to the reveal, Alfie believes that it's a certain one of the Branning brothers. Even just before the 'doof doof' at the end of the episode, the viewers will think that it's the person who Alfie believes it is. It's only in the last ten seconds that you realise who it actually is. So I think the reveal is going to be very interesting."
It sounds like we see a different side to Alfie, with some really angry scenes in the reveal episodes. Did you enjoy that opportunity?
"Definitely - I enjoyed giving Alfie some balls. You've got to remember that the character has been in prison in the past. He's always worn his heart on his sleeve and seen the good in people, and this is the one time where he says, 'Enough is enough - no more Mr Nice Guy'.
"Even though he's angry, you'll still see Alfie's pain when his whole life just crumbles in his hands. He's holding on for dear life, and I think there's something really endearing about a bloke who's trying to keep his family together. Alfie wants to keep the family unit strong, but there comes a point where there's only so much one person can take. That's enjoyable for me, because it's an emotion that I've not really played with Alfie before."
How much can you tell us about the aftermath of the reveal?
"I'll be interested to see the audience's reaction to what happens afterwards. You'll see that Alfie really wants to move on from Kat quickly. He goes into denial and he puts his head in the sand.
"A relationship with Roxy forms, and I think the audience have wanted that for a long time. But it's how that relationship forms and the basis of it which becomes really interesting - it starts to cause some problems in the Square.
"We're still filming the aftermath now and there's a bit of a triangle going on now with Kat, Alfie and Roxy. I think people want to see Kat and Alfie together, but at the same time, it feels like they can never be happy. So how can these two people be together and be happy? That's what I think will play out next year, if they do end up getting back together at all."
Are you still filming lots of scenes with Jessie at the moment even though Kat and Alfie aren't together?
"Yes, definitely - obviously they've got Tommy and that means they'll always have a link. What's interesting now is how the dynamic has changed. Alfie and Kat have a certain dynamic, while Alfie and Roxy have a very different one.
"I think Rita Simons is now playing a different kind of Roxy, as the character is seeing somebody who she could spend the rest of her life with. At the same time, though, Roxy is feeling a little bit insecure because this relationship has happened very quickly. Roxy worries that Alfie might be on the rebound and could end up going back to Kat.
"Funnily enough, at the moment we're coming up to filming Valentine's scenes and there's a lovely story forming with these characters."
We've seen that there are a lot of fans of the Alfie and Roxy pairing. Did you expect it to be as popular as it has been?
"I had no idea that it would be popular. I just always assumed that people would want Kat and Alfie to stay together. But when we had the flirting scenes with Alfie and Roxy earlier in the year, a lot of people seemed to really like it.
"I think the viewers liked it because Kat was being horrible at the time. When Kat starts turning on her charm again, I think people are going to be saying, 'No Alfie, you need to be back with Kat!' Those are the dynamics we're playing at the moment, and we've even been filming scenes this morning for this storyline which are really interesting."
Is it true that you and Jessie didn't know the identity of Kat's lover for a long while?
"That is true - it was really kept under lock and key. I think that was more frustrating for Jessie than it was for me, because obviously the character of Kat knew who this person was, but Jessie didn't. We were happy to let it play out, though, because Kat flirts outrageously with all three Branning brothers, so we wanted the audience to make up their own minds about who the mystery lover was.
"There did come a point where myself and Jessie were brought upstairs and Lorraine Newman, our executive producer, asked if we wanted to know who the lover was. For me, I was still quite happy not to know, because Alfie was in the same position. But due to the shooting schedules and how we film scenes out of sequence, it was getting to the point where we had to know anyway.
"Once we found out who it was, it was a case of, 'Wow!'"
Are you relieved that the lover's identity hasn't been leaked?
"I am, yes, although we've still got a week to go! On Twitter there are people guessing and I imagine it's the same on Digital Spy - some guess right, and some guess wrong. Some have great theories and I think, 'Wow, I wish we'd thought of that one!' But certainly the press have played along and not exposed who Kat's lover really is."
The truth comes out just before Christmas. Are you busy in the actual Christmas episode too?
"Well, building up to Christmas, there's another little storyline which indirectly involves Kat and Alfie. The Christmas episodes are bloody good and Lorraine Newman has done a brilliant job. I think she's done a throwback to what Den and Angie were about. We're seeing families, turmoil, angst and anger.
"People ask, 'Why can't anybody be happy in EastEnders?', but that's because nobody does misery better than EastEnders! I think the viewers like to watch people having a really bad time and they feel good about themselves afterwards!"
Will you sit down to watch EastEnders on Christmas Day?
"Even before I was part of the show, it was always on in my house at Christmas - it was the Queen's Speech and EastEnders. It'll be the same this year, but I've got my whole family with me at Christmas - there'll be about 20 of us, so whether we'll get to hear any of the episode is another matter!
"But next Thursday, I've got a lot of family and friends coming around to watch the episode where Kat's lover is revealed. My wife knows who it is, but I've not told anybody else and we're going to do the big reveal round my house!"
Alfie and Michael are both in similar positions at the moment with broken marriages. Can we expect more scenes between those two?
"It's funny you should say that, because there's a lot coming up for Alfie and Michael. Watch this space and you'll see what happens in the New Year!"

I'm past caring. Never cared for this story line in the first place.
EastEnders villain Derek Branning has been revealed as Kat Moon's secret lover in a dramatic episode of the soap.
The long-running mystery was finally resolved this evening (December 20) as Derek (Jamie Foreman) was confirmed as the man who Kat slept with throughout the summer.
After secretly following Kat (Jessie Wallace) to the bedsit on George Street in tonight's episode, Alfie demanded answers from his unfaithful wife over her affair.
Although Kat was reluctant to divulge any information, Alfie soon discovered that her mystery man was one of the Branning brothers when he caught a glimpse of the tenancy agreement that had been left behind at the bedsit.
Over at the Queen Vic shortly afterwards, Alfie furiously confronted the Branning siblings and eventually came to the conclusion that Max was the guy in question.
However, when a frantic Kat announced that Max wasn't her lover, Derek and Jack were left as the remaining two suspects still in the frame.
After Alfie urged Kat to give him an answer once and for all, she finally admitted: "It's him - it's Derek!"
EastEnders kicked off the mystery affair storyline in July, originally lining up five Walford residents as suspects before whittling them down.
Kat told Alfie about the affair in September without revealing her lover's identity, but the Moons only managed to get their marriage back on track for a short while.
In a recent interview with Digital Spy, Shane Richie - who plays Alfie - confirmed that his character will embark on a relationship with Roxy Mitchell in the aftermath of tonight's episode.
Speaking at the time, Richie added: "I think Rita Simons is now playing a different kind of Roxy, as the character is seeing somebody who she could spend the rest of her life with.
"At the same time, though, Roxy is feeling a little bit insecure because this relationship has happened very quickly. Roxy worries that Alfie might be on the rebound and could end up going back to Kat."
EastEnders continues tomorrow (December 21) at 8pm on BBC One.

Well what a let down.. we all guess it was him from the start..
I'm still confused. (Doesn't take much!) Why did Kat ring Max or was it Derek's phone that had a picture of Max's family on it?
She rang Max's phone as she could not get through to Derek
Well if rumours are true.. Lauren is his daughter so he might have a family pic on itQuote:

EastEnders has sparked complaints after Alfie Moon used the word "shagging" during Thursday's (December 20) episode.
The character directed the word at Derek Branning as he accused the gangster of having an affair with his wife Kat.
Countryfile presenter Julia Bradbury wrote on Twitter: "The word 'shagging' used on EastEnders seems to have caused quite a pre-watershed stir this evening....?"
Users of the social networking site went on to ask whether the word should be featured on the show.
According to The Sun, 'shagging' trended on Twitter during the evening.
The newspaper quotes a BBC insider as saying that the word had been said before on the long-running soap and that there had been a total of 45 complaints from viewers.

so if Kat is pregnant and has been "sha**ng" Derek, surely this means that her and Alfie were not exactly itimate? was this not the reason she went off looking for a fella, as Alfie was not giving her the attention, so for him to think he may be the father of her "rumoured" baby is surely bonkers!!!
