EastEnders' Alfie Moon hasn't given-up hope of getting back together with his ex-wife, Kat Slater.
It's the reason he returned to Walford last month, just in time to jeopardise Kat's wedding to Phil Mitchell.
Alfie could stand a better chance now that Kat's fella Phil has been forced to flee Albert Square to avoid another run-in with DCI Keeble and gangster, Jonah Tyler.

However, she ends up feeling grateful when Alfie tries to cheer her up with a spooky fun event at the pub. Plus, he takes Linda’s young son, Ollie, trick or treating – although without her permission.
Unfortunately, Alfie finds himself in Kat's bad books when she discovers he has let their sons, Bert and Ernie, bunk-off school for Halloween and she refuses to let him have the boys for the weekend!
Feeling bad, Linda comes-up with a plan to help him. But it's always one step forward then two steps back for Alfie.
After making some positive progress with Kat, he totally messes-up by getting stuck on the roof of The Vic and unable to pick-up Tommy.
