5 EastEnders spoilers next week
1. Yolande Trueman reels as Pastor Clayton is found dead
Yolande is hesitant about taking part in the Harvest Festival celebrations at the community centre, and Patrick (Rudolph Walker) tries to convince her.
They're interrupted by DS Amartey, who reveals that another woman has come forward in the case against Pastor Clayton.
Yolande finds a distraction in Amy, whose strength gives her a boost. Yolande therefore heads to the community centre, much to the delight of Levi and Agatha.
All is going well until Clayton's wife, Stella, arrives, asking Yolande to retract her statement against her husband. Yolande shares some home truths, and later, at home, Pastor Clayton barges in.
An oblivious Patrick worries about Yolande in The Queen Vic with Kim Fox (Tameka Empson) and Howie Danes (Delroy Atkinson), while Clayton asks Yolande to change her statement, but she stands firm in her refusal.
Pastor Clayton is soon marched out by Denzel Danes (Jaden Ladega), and Patrick, Kim and Howie are shocked by what's happened - but Yolande has found strength in standing up to her attacker.
At the end of the evening, Yolande and Patrick are interrupted by the police, who reveal that Pastor Clayton has died by suicide. Yolande reels from the news, and her family rally round her as she questions where she goes from here.
Then Stella arrives to see her, and Patrick comforts Yolande in the aftermath. Can Yolande find closure now that Pastor Clayton won't face justice?

3. Tommy Moon puts on an act amid vile behaviour
Kat and Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) continue to struggle with Tommy, who has bunked off school. Kat scolds Alfie for not disciplining their son, and Alfie closes the bookies early to have a heart-to-heart with Tommy.
But this leads Alfie to lose his job, and Tommy puts on a nice-guy act in front of Kat and Alfie. However, it's clear that the situation is far from resolved.
