EastEnders' Bianca issues menacing threat in early iPlayer release
Zack has to watch his back.
*Warning: contains spoilers for today's EastEnders episode (30th April) which is currently airing on iPlayer.*
There was another twist in the tale of Whitney (played by Shona McGarty) on EastEnders today, coming from her desire to care for troubled teen Britney (Lola Campbell).
Social services caught up with her eventually, given that her fostering of Britney is illegal after she paid her mum to take the teen off her hands.
In the middle of it all, Zack (James Farrar) had an affair with Lauren (Jacqueline Jossa), and Bianca (Patsy Palmer) found out...
So, when social services knocked on Whitney's door in today's episode, it's clear to see all lines of the drama converging in a very explosive way.

Despite begging the authorities not to take Britney away, explaining how much Whitney's helped the teen by getting her into a school, feeding her, and helping her amid her diagnosis of Usher syndrome, it wasn't enough - social services decided it was in the interests of safeguarding Britney to take her out of Whitney's home and put her into police protection.
Whitney was understandably devastated, after connecting maternally with Britney and helping to turn her life around.
Bianca and Zack rallied around an upset Whit, insisting it will all work out in the end and that Britney will return home as soon as the police have spoken to the teen's mum.
As Whitney went to rest, Zack and Bianca spoke for the first time since the truth about his affair came out.
Bianca issued a threat to Zack, that if he didn't get Britney back for Whitney, she would reveal the truth...
Is Zack on borrowed time now? And will Whitney get Britney back?
