Rocky Cant is terrified that Sandy Gibson will blow his cover in Monday's episode of EastEnders (8:00 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings).

Rocky is feeling nervous about his upcoming court appearance for keying the car of Sonia's married fling Ethan, worried about what punishment awaits him.

Meanwhile, Dotty Cotton is flooded with relief when her missing mum Sandy Gibson turns up in the club. She tells Sandy that she's getting the money together for her to go to rehab and she offers her a place to stay.

When Rocky gets back from court, Dotty breaks the news that Sandy is back and she tells Rocky she needs him to get more money out of Peter Beale.

Rocky is alarmed when Sandy appears and is clearly suspicious about why he's in Walford. Terrified that his lie is about to be exposed, Rocky tells Dotty he can't deal with pretending to be Sonia Fowler's dad any longer and he's leaving the Square - tomorrow!

Gray Atkins is taken aback when his mother-in-law to be Denise Fox wants reassurance that he's marrying Chelsea Fox for the right reasons. He promises Denise that he loves Chelsea and wants her to be his wife.

But there's trouble ahead when Chelsea discovers that mum Denise Fox has booked her wedding to Jack Branning on the same day as her OWN nuptials! They've both opted for a civil ceremony on Christmas Day!

Chelsea smarts when Denise points out that she and Gray are rushing into things. Determined to prove her wrong, she invites Denise and Jack to lunch to show them that she and Gray are a united couple.

Gray, meanwhile, is getting more and more terrified about how much the wedding is going to stretch his already very thin finances. Covering to Chelsea, he suggests that they wait a while.

Chelsea is infuriated by Gray's request, assuming that her mum has talked him out of the wedding. She angrily confronts Denise and tells her that there's no way she's changing her plans. They're getting married on Christmas Day whether Denise likes it or not!
