EastEnders' Tommy Moon to struggle with Alfie's temporary departure
EastEnders spoilers follow.
Tommy Moon will continue to struggle following Alfie Moon's temporary departure in EastEnders.
Alfie recently left the Square for a two-week management training course in Birmingham before taking over as the new manager of the Minute Mart.
Kat Slater convinced Alfie to go for the training course, despite his concerns about leaving Tommy alone with his mother. The two have clashed this year, with Tommy even punching Kat during one row.
In scenes airing next week, Kat tries to hold the family together in Alfie's absence. Tommy is shown brooding once again since Alfie will miss their football plans.
Kat assures Tommy that Alfie isn't intentionally slighting him — he's simply trying to make the best of the job opportunity Tommy encouraged him to go for.

Kat gently tries to approach the subject with Tommy, but he reacts badly and once again tries to physically intimidate his mother.
Tommy continues to cause trouble during celebrations for Jay Brown's 30th birthday, where Jay receives another video message recorded by his late wife Lola before her death.
Tommy ruins the celebratory mood, causing yet more problems for his mother. Phil Mitchell is shocked to see Tommy's vicious response when Kat begs him to keep the noise down.
