EASTENDERS - Alfie sets his worries alight

Tonight is the beginning of a massive week of episodes for EastEnders, as Alfie Moon turns arsonist when he sets fire to the family home.

The last few weeks have seen Alfie become increasingly withdrawn and depressed about the state of his family finances, and with the Moon/Slater clan about to be evicted, he sees no other option but to torch his house.

Taking the opportunity of Sharon's hen do (to which she's now NOT screwing Phil over, instead, him doing the dirty on her - but that's another story!) Alfie encourages Kat, Stacey and Mo to go along and enjoy themselves, while Whitney babysits their children.

Lighting a cigarette, and dropping it into a bin, Alfie leave the house, knowing it's about to go up in flames.

Alfie is about to make a terrible mistake...

However, Mo (being Mo!) has stashed some beauty-type products in the house, causing the house to explode... As previously reported, though, just before the big bang, Kat calls her hubby to say she's at home waiting for him.

Later this week, putting his own life at risk - Alfie goes back to rescue his missus.

It's going to be an unmissable week!
