Back in Walford Zack made a drunken pass at Whitney’s pal Lauren Branning - that led her to tell him to confess all or she would.
Confiding in Ravi, Zack realised he had to confess before Lauren dobbed him in.
Meanwhile Lauren confided in Penny who made her realise that it wasn’t quite as serous as she was taking it.
And before Zack could head off to Milton Keynes to confess all to Whitney, Lauren stopped him.

She said: “You don’t need to tell her, you don’t need to go running back to Milton Keynes, I’m not going to say anything.
“But that doesn’t mean you’re off the hook. It just means I don’t want to upset my very pregnant friend over some drunken mistake.
“If I hear anything about you around any other girls again, dry rub or not. I mean it, I will tell her everything.”
A relieved Zack told her: “You’re going to have to take my word for it. I’m a good guy. You said it yourself. Thank you.”
