EastEnders will kick off a big story for Jay Brown next week when he gets some news about the man who killed his father.

Long-term viewers will know that Jase Dyer was murdered by gang leader Terry Bates in 2008, and Jay (Jamie Borthwick) will be rocked to hear that he's now passed away.

As Jay prepares for a day out with his girlfriend Lola Pearce and her daughter Lexi, his plans crumble when he gets a new booking at work that requires his immediate attention.

As Jay reels from his discovery, Callum is shocked to see how much Jay hates him and later turns to Ben for help.
