Callum Highway is determined to protect Whitney Dean, Martin Fowler goes down a dark path, and Ian Beale gets himself in trouble.

Callum Highway is worried for ex Whitney Dean around her new bloke Leo King in Tuesday’s episode of EastEnders (7.30 pm, see our TV Guide for full listings).

When Callum Highway finds out that Leo King has asked Whitney Dean to a hotel for the night he is uneasy, not trusting the sinister Leo. Although he tries to talk to Jay Mitchell about him, he’s left frustrated when Jay assumes that Callum is just jealous. Jay tries to paint Leo in a good light but Callum can’t get the niggling worries out of his head. He approaches Whitney’s stepsister Tiffany Dean. Her initial reaction is the same as Jay’s, dismissing his concerns as jealousy.

But Tiff is left thoughtful and she calls mum Bianca Butcher to sound her out. She is horrified when Bianca confirms that Leo King is Whitney’s abuser Tony King’s son. Meanwhile, Leo has taken Whitney to the hotel and they are getting closer. When Tiff tries to call Whitney to warn her, Leo spots that Tiffany is calling and rejects the call. Is she in danger?
