Frankie Carter gets a surprise on her birthday in Tuesday's episode of EastEnders (7.30 pm, see our TV Guide for full listings).

Frankie Carter is touched when dad Mick Carter arranges a birthday party for her at The Vic. He gives her the card from her mum Katy Lewis that an angry Frankie chucked in the bin, as it has a cheque for £2,000 inside it!

Frankie, however, is incensed, claiming she refused to be bribed by her mum into forgiving her for what all the horrific abuse she committed when she worked at the care home.

Tiffany Butcher-Baker tells hubby Keegan Butcher-Baker that she's set him up a social media page for his market stall. She suggests that he do a live stream showing him preparing food to bring in extra customers.

Later, Keegan and Tiff are taken aback when the stall attracts a huge queue of young women. They think it's hilarious when they realise what happened...

Tiff started the live stream earlier than planned. When Keegan had a spill on his clothes he had to strip off to change and he was caught on camera in the buff!

EastEnders continues on BBC1 on Thursday at 7.40 pm.
