00:00The April 7, 2026 episode of EastEnders delivers one of the most emotionally charged and structurally
00:06significant chapters in the current storyline arc. Following the mounting tension of previous
00:11episodes, this installment leans fully into consequence-driven drama, where secrets no
00:16longer sit quietly beneath the surface, they begin to actively reshape relationships,
00:20identities, and the balance of power within Albert Square, this is not just escalation,
00:25its transformation. The episode marks a turning point where multiple storylines shift directly
00:55before you know it, all right? It's easy for you to say, right? There's a thousand things
00:58that I can't say. I get it, I get it, but listen, you're there to talk about Jasmine, all right?
01:03Yeah, without saying that she was working with Chrissie and she tortured Zoe for months.
01:08Okay, look at me. That's it. You just breathe, just breathe.
01:14You can do this, Mum. I believe in you. Thanks, darling. I'm still getting ready, yeah?
01:21Yeah.
01:25Ignore me all you like to, but Zach's still limp with you. It's going to blow up in your face.
01:29What's your own business? I'm fine, now.
01:32You're asking to get caught and you know it.
01:38What's the letter she got the up about?
01:40Oh, he's annoyed about his man of honour duties.
01:43What?
01:45You worry about your manshed.
01:48You know about that?
01:49Of course I do.
01:51I think it's a good idea.
01:53I'll give you a break from Brian Zilla.
01:56Yeah.
02:04Wait.
02:13Temperature's definitely fallen.
02:16What does that mean, though?
02:18Can she hold Ivy?
02:19I've discussed with the rest of the team.
02:22I think it's time she gets a cut-up from her mummy.
02:37Have you spoken to Patrick?
02:39He's settled on with that.
02:41I told him I'd call him again later.
02:43Hopefully with the news that she's been locked up.
02:47She's a teenager on the game.
02:49She's 19 and a murderer.
02:51Yeah, but she's still a person and she has a family.
02:53Wait, wait, you two.
02:55Are you serious?
02:56Not to die.
02:56Yes, I am.
02:57Stop.
02:58Stop.
02:59Hi.
03:00Sorry, I know this is hard for you all with what is done to Patrick.
03:04We're all feeling the pain, but your feelings matter as well.
03:08Yeah, you're part of this family too.
03:11I want to keep getting to know you all, especially Patrick,
03:14but if Jasmine gets out, then...
03:17You don't have to worry about that for today.
03:19No.
03:19All that matters is that we have our family around us.
03:22Yeah?
03:24Something happened.
03:26Um, well, we're moving to South End next week.
03:30South End?
03:32We've been waiting for a flat swap from the council to be close to my nan.
03:36Yeah, she just needs a bit of extra help and the council have managed to find us somewhere.
03:41And are Jasmine and Zoe now?
03:43No.
03:53Ridiculous.
03:54You can't come too late.
03:55You're going to miss all the good bits.
03:57Oh, no.
03:57She's witness for the defence.
03:59Look, I'll be there soon, all right?
04:01Just...
04:01I'm fine, okay?
04:02It's fine.
04:05Can we just focus on getting to the court?
04:07Yeah, right.
04:07Everyone in the camp.
04:09Yeah.
04:10This girl's bad.
04:12It's not going to work for you, all right, darling?
04:13I promise.
04:14Tell me, go in, all right?
04:15I've seen a bit.
04:26Hold on.
04:26You're not going with them?
04:30Don't you want to be there to support her?
04:33Uh, Jasmine wouldn't want that.
04:35Trust me.
04:35Why?
04:36Look, the past isn't the past, so let's just leave it there.
04:38Hold on, wait.
04:40Look, I'm not here to be judged by you, okay?
04:42No, I know.
04:44Can we go somewhere and talk in private?
04:46Yeah?
04:47Come on.
04:47Yeah.
04:54Look, Ivy.
04:55It's your mummy.
04:56Wait, wait, wait, wait.
04:57Come on, she's going to be so happy to see you.
04:59No, no, but...
05:00Look, my temperature's only just come down.
05:02Ivy's stable.
05:04Yeah, but what...
05:06No, what if I make her sick?
05:07Look, why don't we just wait?
05:08Nicola.
05:10Look at me.
05:14Look at me.
05:16These people know what they're talking about.
05:18I mean, they saved you and their little girl.
05:21So all she's missing...
05:22is her mum.
05:24Right?
05:26I don't want to work.
05:28Oh, you won't.
05:30Come on.
05:32Bet she'd love a little cuddle.
05:44She's here.
05:46She's here.
05:47There we go.
05:48There she is.
05:53Hello.
05:56Come, you mummy.
06:00Oh, she's tiny.
06:03Oh, she's tiny.
06:05We're going to have to get her loads of new clothes.
06:07Nothing's going to fit.
06:11I can feel her, aren't we?
06:15All her vitals are steady.
06:17She'll do some growing in the next few weeks.
06:22She's strong.
06:27She was so early, though, George.
06:29Yeah, she was.
06:30And she's a fighter.
06:31She gets better every day.
06:33Just like a mum.
06:35All that you've been through.
06:37And how brave you were.
06:39And how amazing you are.
06:42She's really going to love you.
06:44How could she not?
06:48For the same reasons that I love you.
06:56Hey.
06:58Hello.
07:04I reckon we're getting most of this, don't we, though, boys?
07:07Yeah.
07:08It's all right now, to be honest.
07:09Like this or going to the trial.
07:11So, how's the wedding coming off?
07:13Yeah.
07:14Got all your tips?
07:15Yeah, I mean, I could share my expertise if you knew the best, mate.
07:19We haven't got to that yet.
07:20We're doing low-key, but...
07:23Knock yourself out if you want to do the stag here.
07:25I thought you set this face up to talk about things other than the women in your life.
07:28Come on.
07:29Jeez.
07:29Have you got a woman on a go that we don't know about?
07:31More chance than you.
07:33What's up, mate?
07:34I thought we'd be excited about all this.
07:38Everything, um...
07:39You know.
07:40What's up?
07:43Oh.
07:44Yeah, I had Vicky hear the phone from me earlier.
07:47Oh, it's not still going on, is it?
07:49Shut up, Pete.
07:50What's he on about?
07:50Look, if you don't want to talk about it, don't make him.
07:52Come on, lads.
07:53Oh, no, no, come on.
07:54Look, you need to be honest.
07:55And if she's still talking to him...
07:57Yeah.
07:57Talking to him.
08:00I'll tell you what, she really is her father's daughter.
08:05I think he's been seeing some.
08:06Nah.
08:11Sort of.
08:12Oh.
08:15I can't wait to talk about it.
08:18I mean, that's what this place is for, isn't it?
08:20Right, isn't it?
08:31I can't wait to talk about it apart.
08:34This she's there with someone else at all.
08:41Something must have happened between you two.
08:44Look, we've fostered loads of kids over the years.
08:47Okay?
08:48And Swill's managed to break through.
08:50But Jasmine...
08:53Nothing I did worked with her.
08:56But you kept Josh a twin.
08:59And you don't think I felt the pain of that?
09:03You've got no idea what it's like.
09:08Listen, I'm about to defend her in court.
09:11I want to know that I'm doing the right thing.
09:14You've got a history with her.
09:15You've raised her for years.
09:16I just want to understand her.
09:20Please, I want to know.
09:21Why didn't you keep her?
09:23What happened?
09:27She was in a car accident with my husband, Keith.
09:31He was driving her back to the swimming pool to get her stuff.
09:36She'd been difficult all day and she'd just left her things there.
09:39So what?
09:42We crashed on the way home.
09:46Still don't know how.
09:49I don't know what I mean.
09:49It was a quiet, sunny afternoon.
09:51A 10-minute drive that he'd done a million times.
10:04My husband died.
10:07I'm so sorry.
10:10And you know, when I got to the hospital,
10:15Jasmine just gave me this look.
10:19I mean, there was no fear.
10:21There was no sadness.
10:24She'd just watched her father die and she just stared.
10:30Empty and cold.
10:31And I just thought, you know, I think she...
10:39You think she caused it, yeah?
10:42Like I told you, once a cheat, always a cheat.
10:45It's not everyone that makes a mistake is sitting down to hurt anyone.
10:48Do you like a cheat?
10:49I mean, you don't know what's in that place, do you?
10:53I mean, when I was getting married, honey was hiding all sorts of things.
10:57Is there anything else that means you think it's still going on?
10:58Yeah, so we need this.
11:00This is none of our business.
11:03I just feel like the trust isn't the same as it was.
11:07I thought it was behind us, but it clearly isn't,
11:09because this is all it takes to set me off again.
11:12And that's how it's always going to be.
11:15Trust me.
11:17Ian, you've got such a massive shit on your shoulder.
11:19Because you can't hold on to the woman.
11:22Also, she's not going to be blatantly texting someone else in front of you.
11:25She was honest with you about it, and she said she told you.
11:28That's right.
11:29It's the matter, are you worried you can't get past this?
11:33It's that me and honey, we've survived so much.
11:37It's part of marriage, isn't it?
11:38So if you really love her, you can get through it.
11:41Don't do ya.
11:43Really love her.
11:45Mate, I've never loved anyone like this.
11:48Right.
11:50Well, forgive her and forget.
11:52I married a woman.
11:55Come on, lads.
11:56We'll never get this finished with all this negative energy.
11:58Hey, man.
11:59That's what my self's saying.
12:00Cheers, fellas.
12:01You got it, Bill.
12:03There was a boob, Bill.
12:06Oh, yeah.
12:08The crash report came back, and there was nothing wrong with that car.
12:15They just assumed that he'd swerved.
12:18You can't honestly believe she did this.
12:21Well, he was a good driver, okay?
12:23He was safe.
12:26I mean, maybe she did just pull the wheel.
12:28You know, she was always doing things like that.
12:32She'd just lash out, but she was angry.
12:35And she was kicking off because we said no to going to the cinema.
12:41I mean, you ask for answers, okay?
12:44And I've given you them.
12:44Yeah, you've got to prove this, though, haven't you?
12:46I know, but don't forget why you're here.
12:48Okay, she's on trial for murder.
12:52It's saving her mum.
12:57All I can say is that I know her, and I am not surprised that this is where she has
13:03ended up.
13:04Jasmine is troubled, and if your gut is telling you not to trust her, listen to her.
13:19Can I ask you a question?
13:21Mm-hmm.
13:23How often do you worry about relapsing?
13:27Wow.
13:28Where the hell did that come from?
13:30Obviously, you don't have to answer.
13:31Yeah.
13:33Just wanted to know.
13:36Addiction is a lifelong thing.
13:39And, yeah, it is where my brain goes to when things get tough.
13:42Look, I have got ways of coping.
13:45I've got people that support me.
13:48And Harry's got that, too.
13:49Who?
13:50Nicola?
13:52But you know how I feel about all this.
13:55I think that Harry deserves to know that he couldn't be the dad.
13:58And then you do have to think about Gina as well, because the longer you leave this, the worse it's
14:02going to get, Penny.
14:02That is exactly why I'm not saying anything.
14:05Because I know in my gut that Vinny is the dad.
14:07I'm not going to go and blow up everyone's life that might be.
14:12One thing I do know, being an addict, is that lying just makes everything ten times worse.
14:24Hey, hey, stop it, I'm fooling you!
14:26Hey!
14:31Hey!
14:34Hey!
14:42Hey!
14:54Miss Fisher found Dr. Anthony Truman kneeling next to an unconscious Miss Slater.
14:59Whether he was kneeling down to hurt her or to help her, we don't know.
15:03And neither did Miss Fisher.
15:05What we can see is that Dr. Truman saw the phone, panicked, and was trying to get it from Miss
15:11Fisher.
15:12That's when the phone fell to the ground.
15:15Miss Fisher struck Anthony Truman on the back of the head.
15:19He was turned away from her, and the blow was so severe it killed him.
15:25That is not an act of self-defense.
15:29It's cold-blooded murder.
15:40You all right, Mum?
15:41Hiya.
15:41Hiya, George.
15:42Hiya.
15:42Hi.
15:42I've got you some books, just if you want.
15:45I know you said you'd never have time.
15:46How you doing?
15:47Hi.
15:47How's Ivy?
15:49Beautiful.
15:49No, she is gorgeous.
15:51Just like me.
15:52Mum said you were born with a massive head.
15:55Oh, don't worry.
15:56I love your massive head.
15:57Don't pout.
16:01Well, I think you boys should spend a bit of time with your mum.
16:05Why, is it fin' all right?
16:06Of course.
16:07Yeah, just a bit of a nice ketchup.
16:11I've just got to get back to the restaurant, sir.
16:13That's a good idea.
16:18Okay, so I'll just come with you, then.
16:22Sit down.
16:22Sit down.
16:23Sit down.
16:30Go and get us some proper coffees, would you?
16:32The canteen's on the other side of the hospital.
16:34But you've got legs.
16:35Sorry.
16:45So, what happened with George?
16:48What?
16:49Try again.
16:52What, you convinced it's my fault, are you?
16:53Oh, I love your mum, but it often is.
16:55Oi!
16:56I'm playing with you.
16:57Kind of.
17:01He said he loved me and I blanked him.
17:05Okay.
17:07Well, you both just had a baby together, sir.
17:08Yeah, exactly.
17:10Right, she is my focus.
17:12So you and George ain't happening no more?
17:14You know, my love with men.
17:17Dad's a good man.
17:18Yeah, exactly.
17:19And look how that turned out.
17:22Barely looks at me when we go and visit him inside.
17:28Just don't want you to mess up your future because there's something that happened in the past.
17:32I'm sorry.
17:34You turned into some sort of therapist.
17:36I'm sorry.
17:38I just want to make sure that everything we did was to make a better future.
17:43Don't take that away from Ivy.
17:46Especially not just to punish yourself.
17:50You are going to make a really good dad, won't I?
17:54Yeah, maybe.
17:56I'll just be big brother for now.
18:01So what are you going to do about George?
18:09Did Miss Fisher ever tell you of her involvement in your son's death?
18:13I had no clue at all.
18:16She just told me that she was my granddaughter.
18:22I told her about her father.
18:24I told her about her father.
18:26And to me, he was always smart, you know.
18:31Even as a child, I knew he was going to go on and do well for himself.
18:39Make me proud.
18:42So I wanted her to know that her father, he was a good man.
18:49And she, um, she came with me to the funeral home to see his, his body.
19:03Did she show any emotion, guilt, horror, anything?
19:09She comforted me.
19:12Knowing that she had done this, it was easy for her.
19:18She's a natural liar.
19:23And rather than own her, she ran.
19:27And it's only when she got caught that she started preaching self-defense.
19:39Thank you, Mr. Truman.
19:42Don't get me wrong.
19:43I do know that Nicola is a really tough nut to crack.
19:45But she has just been for a really serious trauma, Dad.
19:49Yeah, I know.
19:50That's why I wanted her to know I feel.
19:52That is a very mad thing to say.
19:55I mean, she's just been cut open.
19:57And she's worried about a premature baby.
19:59She can't even hold her.
20:01And her hormones, well, they're probably all over the place.
20:07There is just a chance that she wasn't in the right frame of mind for your love confession.
20:22I need you to come back to the hospital.
20:25We should talk.
20:26Yeah.
20:27What do I say?
20:29Oh, you never read too much into a text.
20:31You just, you're just patient with her.
20:38It was creepy.
20:40Sort of obsessed with me.
20:42Always around.
20:43That's why I was so scared that night.
20:45Did he have a weapon?
20:48No.
20:49Do you know if he had any history of using weapons?
20:52Well, no.
20:53Had he ever hurt you before?
20:55Ever feared he might kill you?
20:56No, but it's not...
20:57You weren't aware that Miss Fisher was your daughter until after the attack.
21:02Yeah.
21:03But she'd been in Walford for months and had never told you.
21:06Well, it's not easy finding your mum after all those years.
21:09And that's why she was there that night.
21:11To connect, finally.
21:13Yeah.
21:14But when she found you unconscious, did she call an ambulance?
21:18No.
21:18Did she tell anyone downstairs you'd been hurt?
21:20She was panicking.
21:21In fact, she ran.
21:24Let you sit in a prison cell and take the blame.
21:28And you expect us to believe those are the actions of an honest person.
21:36But they just told me to phone this number.
21:40Yep.
21:41Mm.
21:42But I need that order at my bar within the next three hours.
21:45Yeah.
21:47Uh-huh.
21:48So you're definitely going to phone me back?
21:53Wrong number.
21:55You all right?
21:57Yeah.
21:58I've just got a million things going on.
22:00I'm trying to balance going to the hospital and looking after the bar.
22:02Everything okay with your mum and I, please?
22:04Yeah.
22:06Come on.
22:07Why don't you use your sponsor?
22:08Or could I go to a meeting?
22:11Well, have I got time for that?
22:15Okay, look.
22:15I know I've got the shop opening, but why don't I just help with the club?
22:20Seriously?
22:22Could you use the rest?
22:23You look awful.
22:27Actually, you are a lifesaver, Ben.
22:33See you, Ben.
22:47All right, Oscar, pick up.
22:49I've changed my mind.
22:50I'm going to need you to sort the fake DNA results.
23:03Go on, Kay.
23:04Give it to him.
23:05Do you want a pipe there?
23:11I swear by almighty God that the evidence I shall give shall be the truth.
23:16The whole truth and nothing but the truth.
23:27I want to start by asking about your relationship with Jasmine Fisher.
23:32She's my granddaughter.
23:34And you also have a relationship with the victim in this case, Dr. Truman.
23:40I knew him a long time, yeah.
23:43Do you have any reason to believe he might be violent to Zoe?
23:48Um, he was scary, calculated, and he was dark.
23:55Yeah.
23:56He wanted to punish Zoe.
23:58He wanted to hurt her.
24:21He wanted to hurt her.
24:30The timing was pretty stupid.
24:35George, every time I've let myself love someone, it's blown up in my face.
24:41Yeah.
24:42We've all been there.
24:44You know, Ivy, Ivy, she's my focus right now.
24:47You know, she's top of my list.
24:49No one else.
24:50And I know that ain't the romance you want or the love-or-fix-it-all story, but that is
25:00me.
25:00Okay?
25:01And that's real life.
25:05Why?
25:09Ivy, she's what we need to focus on, yeah?
25:14Understood.
25:22You're always on that thing.
25:24I just watched the film.
25:25Yeah, I'm trying.
25:26You're obviously interested in something more important.
25:28Oh, sorry, phone police.
25:30I'm watching a Flashman proposal video in a supermarket, which, by the way, is more interesting than Fast and the
25:35Furious 848, which we've seen before.
25:39Oh, sorry.
25:41It's all right.
25:41Do you guys want to see pictures of Ivy?
25:43Uh, yes, I do.
25:44Oh, look at her.
25:47Oh, wow.
25:48She's so nice.
25:49She's all right, though.
25:50Mum's feeling much better as well.
25:52I'm really glad to wear that, mate.
25:54She's beautiful.
25:56I've got a second.
25:57Oh, yeah.
25:59Wait, there's a bacon in the fridge if you want to sell me.
26:01Oh, yeah.
26:02Yeah, let's cheers.
26:02Is that all right?
26:05It's a vehicle.
26:07I'm trying to give you a heads up here.
26:09What does it sound?
26:10Ross ain't over it.
26:12What do you mean?
26:13I was talking to the lads earlier about what happened.
26:15No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
26:16It was a fine.
26:17Are you sure about that?
26:20Just stay out of it, please.
26:22All right.
26:28What's the matter, babe?
26:30So, Miss Joel, they'd probably send us in here and forward.
26:36It's now tomorrow.
26:41How did Miss Fisher see him after Dr. Truman's murder?
26:45She was in shock.
26:47Was it then that she told you she's your granddaughter?
26:49Yeah.
26:51That must have been very emotional.
26:53Something she'd been holding onto for years.
26:55She was really quiet.
26:57Cold?
27:00Doesn't seem like someone who thought her life was in danger
27:02or who had just killed her own father.
27:06There's no right way to react to that, is there?
27:09Let's move on to the confession that Miss Fisher gave you.
27:13What made her confess to you?
27:16I said whatever she did, we'd protect her.
27:18Protect her how?
27:18We'd help her find a way out.
27:20So, Miss Fisher only admitted what she'd done
27:22when she thought there'd be no consequences.
27:24That's not what I said.
27:25But you changed your mind and went to the police
27:27because you didn't buy the self-defence story.
27:31Going to the police, telling them what happened,
27:33it was the right thing to do.
27:35And that's the only reason?
27:38You had no reason to doubt Miss Fisher's motives,
27:41even with no evidence.
27:43I just thought it was weird that no one could find the phone
27:46with the video on it.
27:46You thought she made it up?
27:53Yeah.
27:54You clearly don't believe her either.
27:59Do you believe Miss Fisher is lying about the events of that night?
28:02I don't know.
28:03Is that why you handed her over to the police?
28:05I don't know.
28:05Do you believe she is lying, yes or no, Mrs Moon?
28:12Yes.
28:22And the emotional cost of past decisions becomes unavoidable.
