If Ben and Kheerat in business together sounds like a recipe for disaster – well, you’d be right. Plus Honey is left reeling when Suki confesses her sins.

Read on for all this and the rest of your EastEnders spoilers for the 16-20 August, 2021.

Can Kheerat and Ben work together?

Kheerat is now a joint partner in the Arches and Callum can’t help but worry about him being so involved.

Pretty soon, Callum’s concerns are borne out when Kheerat announces that he’s done a new deal for some business – a move that leaves Ben feeling frustrated. And by the end of Tuesday, we’ll see Kheerat’s mood turn sour when Ben announces that he wants out.

But the pair will then be left with more than just their fractious working relationship to be concerned about when a police car arrives at the Arches. Which member of staff do officers want to talk to?

Suki confesses all to Honey

Kim and Honey put their foot in it when they make a comment about Suki’s awful parenting, not realising that the Panesar matriarch has overheard.

Suki’s reaction is to then make the rash move of clearing out all of Jags’s stuff and throwing it in the bin – much to Kheerat and Ash’s horror.

The next day, a guilty Honey – who has been nominated for a Pride of Walford award – decides to invite Suki along to the ceremony as her plus one. But Suki ends up leaving Honey flabbergasted when she decides to unburden herself and reveal that Jags is dead thanks to her decision to set him up for what Vinny did. Expect Honey to be left reeling as a result of Suki’s surprise bombshell.

Lola to break up with Isaac?

The parents at Issac’s school have been making nasty comments online, calling for him to lose his job as a teacher.

When Sheree learns about what’s been going on, she can’t help but be concerned and Patrick’s efforts to make her feel better fall flat. And when she then learns that Lola has been paying regular visits to the hospital, she lashes out and tells her that she needs to end things with Isaac.

In the past, Lola has always known her own mind and not been afraid of speaking out, but on Tuesday, it seems that she’s set to be persuaded by Sheree that a split from Isaac is her only option.

Ash is under pressure

Ash is being assessed for her GP qualification, but soon finds that the inspection at the hospital isn’t a mere formality.

Friday’s drama sees Ash realising that, due to her past suspension, those in charge of the assessment are going to be harsher than they ordinarily would be. Will Ash buckle under the pressure?

Tommy’s football skills attract big attention

It’s the week of Tommy’s football trial and, as Billy and Jay help him prepare, Kat can’t help but worry that she’s piling too much pressure on her son.

Later in the week, Tommy puts a video of a goal he’s scored online and Kat again starts to fret that he’s getting too caught up in his sporting endeavours. But then Kim breaks the news that Harry Redknapp has shared the footage on his social media – Tommy’s famous and, what’s more, he’s also made the team!
