With Joel’s court case looming over her in today’s EastEnders (Tuesday, January 27), Vicki Fowler was desperate to distract herself from what was to come by spending the evening with Zack Hudson.
Facing Joel for the first time since he brutally attacked her has been weighing heavily on Vicki. Although she is grateful to have her younger brother Mark Jr back in Walford to support her, the reality of what lies ahead keeps creeping in.
So when Zack popped into the cafe and casually offered to cook her dinner, Vicki did not hesitate.

Sparks flew for Zack and Vicki in EastEnders
Viewers will remember that Vicki and Zack already have a history after sharing a kiss last year. That moment was cut short when Kathy walked in on them, but the attraction never really went away.
Arriving at Zack’s flat armed with wine, Vicki quickly made herself comfortable. The ease between them was obvious, and the chemistry soon resurfaced. After Vicki tried Zack’s new menu ideas for The Vic, things escalated fast, and the pair headed to the bedroom.
Lost in the moment, Vicki failed to notice repeated calls from Ross, who had no idea where she really was.
Ross and Mark call a truce
While Vicki was with Zack, Ross was drinking alone in the pub, still struggling with everything going on. Tensions flared when Mark Jr arrived, given their last encounter ended with Ross sporting a black eye.
Alfie stepped in to calm things down, and eventually Mark and Ross agreed to put their differences aside for Vicki’s sake. Neither of them had any idea what was unfolding back at Zack’s flat.
