EastEnders spoilers: Jonno returns, shock heart attack and Slater fallout continues

The fallout from the 'mother of all weeks' is set to continue in next week's EastEnders - with a number of twists and turns unravelling...

Following the events of Zoe's return - rumour mill is at an all time high. EastEnders have revealed the character's secret is set to be revealed on Wednesday. It's so big that the soap are avoiding putting the programme on iPlayer at 6am, with fans having to wait until 7:30pm to watch in full.

Whatever the secret is, the soap have teased it's set to send shockwaves around Walford, but what could it be? EastEnders still aren't giving anything away, although spoilers confirm that next week, the Slaters attempt to rebuild their lives after the events, but are continually met with hurdles.

Elsewhere, there's a shock return for another old character, as Callum's dad Jonno Highway makes his return - but it's not for good reason. Earlier this month, it was revealed Max Bowden would be reprising his role as Ben Mitchell to attend Jonno Highway's funeral.

Fans were convinced we wouldn't see the character again, but in a shock turn of events, Callum is reunited with his dad - by arresting him. And of course, we know things don't end well for Jonno.

At the start of the week, Callum intercepts a verbal and physical homophobic attack on Eve - but is shocked when his father Jonno is revealed as the culprit and arrests him. Jonno was last seen in the soap in 2019 - disowning Callum for his sexuality.

Johnny then meets with Jonno against Elaine's advice - as he offers him legal counsel whilst trying to gauge whether Jonno wants a relationship with Callum. Things seem to be going well as Callum meets his dad at the flat - but things take a sinister turn during an argument - in which Jonno collapses and suffers a heart attack.

If that wasn't enough drama, the fallout of the shooting in the Square continues. EastEnders still aren't giving away whose life hangs in the balance, but what we do know is that DI Jack Branning lies about his whereabouts on the fateful night.

Ravi then uses Jack as an alibi, with Jack telling his colleagues that he was trying to recruit Ravi as an informant. The pair agree to get rid of the gun together, but Jack later has a change of heart...

Elsewhere, Zoe may not be the only one with a secret to hide, as Nigel becomes suspicious of his wife Julie's mystery phone calls. It comes after the couple are left heartbroken as they discover the chickens have been killed by foxes - later realising that Nigel is to blame.

Nigel later takes Phil on a pilgrimage through the countryside to find a time capsule he buried with Grant when they were kids and they're shocked to discover its contents.
