EastEnders spoilers: Monday 26 – Friday 30 October 2020

The week begins with money being tight for the Slaters, so Kush decides to sell Lily Slater's tablet. When Suki Panesar reminds Kush that their rent will increase at the end of the week, he's forced to go back on his poker app.

Martin tells his BFF that he's worried about his gambling habit but Kush reassures him that he has everything under control.

Later – while alone at Ruby's – Kush steals some money from the till but he's unaware that someone is watching him.

The next day Ruby subtly tells Kush to return the money and she'll even forget that it happened but when he denies it, she's left furious.

She quickly confronts the Slaters and although Kat Moon defends her man, Ruby accuses Kush of having a gambling addiction.

Later on, an ecstatic Kush tells Kat that he's won £10,000 and when Kheerat Panesar overhears, he asks him to join their poker night. Kat is not impressed and tells Kush to clear the account if he really doesn't have a gambling problem.

Ruby, still reeling from everything that's happened, decides to get revenge on the Slaters and suggests running the Slaters out of Walford with Suki…

At the end of the week, Kush arrives at the club and spots the Pansears playing poker. It doesn't take long for them to convince Kush to join and soon after Martin gets involved too.

When Stacey and Jean Slater find out where Kush is, they desperately try to stop him – but will he listen?

Max offers Linda a lunch shift at the restaurant when he finds out the Carter family are struggling financially.

She then tells Mick about it and he's indifferent and it's not long before he snaps at her when she presses him…

While Linda decides to take up his offers, Tina gives Mick a serious talk after spotting how he spoke to his wife. She then reassures him that he's a great dad.

Later on in the week Shirley tries to talk to Mick but he snaps at her and tells her she was never there for him when he needed her. However she slams him and tells him to stop playing the victim.

Sonia is over the moon when she receives a car from one of her patients but she's not sure what to do with it.

Shirley offers to buy it off her for £3,000 but Mick points out it's worth a lot more. Later on Shirley offers Gray Atkins a job with the Mitchell family business.
