'Enders punch, Corrie newcomer, E'dale farewell

Ronnie's latest lie has violent repercussions on EastEnders later this month as Jack punches Michael in the face.

Jack's furious behaviour comes after Ronnie puts poison into his ear about Michael, falsely claiming that he tried it on with her.

Michael is left baffled by Jack's behaviour, completely unaware that Ronnie has resorted to desperate measures to prevent him from going into partnership with her husband at a boxing gym.

Later, Michael heads over to visit Ronnie in an attempt to find out what's going on, but she refuses to talk to him.

A Walford source commented: "Jack is furious when Ronnie tells him Michael made a pass at her, and goes at him like a raging bull.

"Ronnie is desperately trying to stop Michael and Jack from working together but with Michael now trying to find out what on earth is going on, will her lies start to unravel?"
