Vicki and Ross fear for Joel's future after he touches a stranger inappropriately in EastEnders

How far will Vicki go to protect Joel?

 14-20 JUNE

On the tube home, Joel asks Tommy to film him, but he has no idea of Joel’s intentions and is horrified to witness Joel pretending to fall on fellow passenger, Isla, who he touches inappropriately.

Both Isla and Tommy are horrified and when they arrive at the station, Isla reports Joel who is apprehended and Ross and Vicki are alarmed to see Joel being stopped.

At the station, as Ross demands answers, Vicki goes to comfort Isla and is supportive of her decision to report Joel, hoping this might stop him doing it again, and gives Isla her number in case she needs anything.

After he's lied to by Joel, Ross fears for Joel's future and Vicki tries to support Ross, before meeting up with Isla and offering her money to drop the complaint, promising to make Joel understand what he did was wrong.

As Tommy tries to avoid Joel, he's shaken when Vicki collars him and warns him that she will implicate him in what happened to Isla if he doesn’t keep his mouth shut.
