EastEnders spoilers follow.
EastEnders is set to revisit a major feud in the Slater family following Zoe's shocking return.
Viewers will know that Kat Moon's daughter Zoe recently returned to Albert Square, with Michelle Ryan reprising her role after 20 years away from the BBC soap.
It was revealed earlier this week that Zoe, who was staying with Stacey, had been hiding a huge secret which was stopping her from returning to Walford for good.
After escaping out of the window and leaving her estranged mother unaware that they had been under the same roof, Zoe promptly booked a flight to Barcelona as she attempted to flee from her past.
Alfie learned of Zoe's plans, and pledged to bring her home from Spain. When talking to an oblivious Kat, who thought he was heading to Australia, Alfie remarked that he was going to bring back the "best present ever".

In scenes which will air next week, Kat tries to confide in Jean about her hurt over Alfie's sudden departure, but Jean refuses to forgive Kat for going into business with Kathy and Harvey.
Kat is subsequently annoyed when Jean questions why she’s spending so much time at Phil’s place, with the figure insisting that she harbours nothing but platonic feelings for her ex-husband.
Meanwhile, Yolande Trueman is planning a surprise party for Patrick's 85th birthday, with the special celebration set to take place at The Queen Vic as several Walford residents are invited.

Yolande asks Jean for a favour as she aims to keep Patrick distracted as the arrangements for the party are put in place. Jean obliges, inviting Patrick for a drink to keep his attention away from the planning.
As they engage in conversation at The Vic, Patrick counsels Jean on the situation with Kat and advises her to make amends for the good of the family - will Jean listen to his words and make peace with Kat?
