Hayley Slater

Zoe did disappear in 2001 so I think that's where the theory came from, though it would still have more holes in it than a sieve. It would have meant a premature birth while Zoe was on the streets with Kelly, which was never mentioned in the next 3 or so years, or picked up when Zoe was taken ill after returning.

Who knows, another retconned branch onto the family tree. Most likely a never before mentioned sibling of Stacey's father Brian, who himself was a retconned addition.

EastEnders' Hayley Slater sparks a scandal next week when she cheekily climbs into bed with Mick Carter at the Queen Vic.

Hayley (Katie Jarvis) takes the bait when fellow Walford newcomer Stuart Highway uses her in a plan to cause trouble for Mick's marriage.

Stuart (Ricky Champ) is Halfway's brother and an old friend of Mick's, who gets invited back to the pub for a drunken reunion with the popular landlord next week.

When Mick (Danny Dyer) heads to bed after an evening of drinking, Stuart puts a cunning plan into action by encouraging Hayley to join him – knowing full well that it'll cause fireworks between the Carters.

The next morning, Linda (Kellie Bright) returns home from a visit to see her mum Elaine and she's understandably furious to find Hayley in bed with her husband.

First on Linda's agenda is to kick Hayley out and warn her never to come back, but then it's time to demand some answers from Mick.

Although Linda later accepts that nothing went on between Mick and Hayley, she blames Stuart's bad influence for the incident and insists that he should leave.

Later on, Mick finally realises that Stuart was the one who set him up with Hayley. Will this be the end of their friendship, or will Mick risk further drama with Linda by giving Stuart another chance?
