Linda tells Oscar who Annie's real father is in EastEnders

Can Lauren convince him not to tell Max?

 19-25 JULY

Wanting to start afresh, Linda decides to tell Oscar about Annie’s paternity, but she pales when he reasons that Max should know.

And Linda tries to persuade Lauren to convince Oscar otherwise.

Oscar wakes after a one-night stand and gets a talking to from Jack who implores him to not add pressure to Lauren and Peter.

Later, Oscar offers to babysit as the pair head for a meal, but things take a turn for the worse when his old acquaintance, Mike, arrives and threatens him. When Lauren and Peter arrive, Mike scarpers, but he leaves a threat behind for Oscar to find.

EastEnders continues Mondays to Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One with first look episodes available from 6am on BBC iPlayer
