Zack Hudson threatens to destroy his life with Whitney when he makes a HUGE mistake in Wednesday's episode of EastEnders (7:30 pm. See our TV Guide for full listings).
Zack Hudson is back in Walford after falling out with his pregnant girlfriend Whitney Dean. The couple had a bust-up over her decision to stick around in Milton Keynes with step-mum Bianca Jackson to help neglected child Britney.
Wandering past Whitney's stall, he sees sisters Lauren Branning and Penny Branning, who are filling in for her. When he stops to chat, he's confronted by Sonia Fowler, who berates him for leaving Whitney behind.
Zack confesses the whole situation to a stunned Lauren, who didn't even know Whitney was pregnant. She can see he's struggling and she offers her support.
When Zack later starts downing drinks in The Vic, a worried Lauren calls Whitney, but she refuses to return home despite Lauren's plea.
Resolving to stop Zack from drinking himself into oblivion, Lauren suggests he get himself some food to soak up the booze and Zack latches on to her concern.
He doesn't have the best record when it comes to confronting relationship troubles, however, and a rough patch with former girlfriend Nancy Carter saw Zack cheat on her with Sam Mitchell.
Misreading the signals, Zack drunkenly leans in for a kiss.
Will Lauren respond?
