EastEnders spoilers: Lauren's secret revealed, Panesars in crisis and children go missing

It's set to be another huge week in EastEnders next week, as relationships are tarnished left right and centre.

There's trouble in paradise yet again for one couple - but they later discover they have a much bigger problem. The Panesars are in crisis mode as Ravi and Suki try to rescue the businesses after it was revealed Bernie had been stealing from them. Plus, Callum shares a kiss with another man as Ben is still locked away...

Desperate for cash, as Avani's Sweet 16th is on the horizon, Ravi goes to Nicola to get a drug contact. But things quickly go south when he's forced to hide in his car from the police.

Harry later agrees to keep it out of sight in The Arches - but it's not long before he and Kojo find a large stash of drugs in the boot. Kojo refuses to return to work - and later Harry discovers the stash has gone missing. But who's taken it?

Elsewhere, Lauren's huge secret is revealed to Peter, just when it looks like they're getting back on track. The two head on a family picnic and in the Square gardens, where they explain to their son Louie that his baby brother Jimmy is blind.

The moment brings them closer together. But in true Cindy Beale style, she interrupts Lauren and Peter's picnic to accuse Lauren of cheating on her son after spotting her and Zack hugging earlier.

Although the two aren't having an affair, viewers saw the couple sharing a kiss last month. Amid the accusations, Lauren is forced to confess she kissed Zack.

Later, Peter confronts Zack and hits him before he and Lauren return home in the midst of a huge argument. However, the two are confronted with an even bigger problem when they discover the boys have vanished.

There's relationship trouble elsewhere in the Square as Cindy berates Callum for kissing Johnny - only for Lexi to overhear. Callum promises Lexi that nothing is going on, but later, as Callum tells Johnny they can only be friends, they end up kissing. And things later escalate..

EastEnders fans will also see Anna back in the Square next week, after it was announced Molly Rainford would be leaving the soap after two years. It's been a frantic time in the family since Anna's been away - and she's been kept in the dark.

As she makes her return, she berates George for keeping her in the dark about the divorce and The Vic sale. She asks George to talk to Elaine about taking things slowly following her heart attack, after both she and Linda fail to get through to her.

Could the new owners of the Vic be in sooner than we think?
