EastEnders' Jack raging as Oscar makes confession in early BBC iPlayer release
This article contains spoilers for tonight's EastEnders, which has not yet aired on TV but is available to watch now on BBC iPlayer. Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) was left brimming with rage in tonight's EastEnders when Oscar Branning (Pierre Moullier) unwittingly confessed to attacking Patrick Trueman (Rudolph Walker). The teen broke into his house in a bid to steal his winnings from the bookies, hoping to pay off an old associate who was threatening his family. However, he hadn't bargained on Patrick arriving home, and when he tried to stop the thief leaving with the cash, they got into a scuffle, with Patrick banging his head on the floor and falling unconscious. The attack left the pensioner hospitalised, but thankfully, he was able to return home after a few days. It hasn't been without consequence though, as Patrick has been suffering with major anxiety since the break in. He isn't the only one, however, as Oscar's troubles have followed him to Albert Square, and seen him threatened and attacked himself. Terrified that the thugs may still be after him despite having been paid off, Oscar stayed up clutching a knife, only to pull it on Peter Beale (Thomas Law) in a panic. In tonight's episode, Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) was determined to get to the bottom of what was causing the tension between Oscar and Howie Danes (Delroy Atkinson). Viewers will know that Howie found evidence proving that Oscar had been Patrick's attacker, and had blackmailed him and Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) in exchange for his silence. In a bid to ease his guilt, Oscar has been providing companionship for Patrick, though this has rubbed Howie the wrong way and been the catalyst for their recent squabbles. When Lauren asked Jack if he'd seen Oscar, he revealed that he had scrapped with Howie at Patrick's stag do, before asking Lauren if she knew what that was about. Lauren denied any knowledge, revealing her shock that Howie would be involved in a violent altercation. When Jack insisted they were hiding something, Lauren pointed out that Oscar was mouthy and often picking fights. She elaborated by revealing that he was having a hard time adjusting to the outside world after his time in the juvenile detention centre before explaining the incident with the knife to her uncle. Jack was horrified and later confronted Oscar, telling him that Lauren had told him everything. However, he didn't realise that that wasn't the case, as there was more to the story than Lauren had let on. Unfortunately, Oscar wasn't to know that and unintentionally confessed to Patrick's attack himself.
