Aired Monday, Jun 17 - Max realises Lauren needs serious help

As a groggy Lauren wakes up at Max's flat full of remorse, Kirsty offers to call a doctor for her. However, Lauren insists that it's not necessary. Kirsty tells Max how worried she is about Lauren's health, but Max still seems to be burying his head in the sand. He tells Kirsty not to bother calling a doctor as they can just see how Lauren gets on over the next couple of days. Unwilling to let it go, Kirsty tells Lauren that she knows the signs of addiction as she's been through something similar herself. Lauren is left startled as Kirsty urges her to get help.

Later, Kirsty continues her crusade by telling Max that she knows an addict when she sees one. The truth finally dawns on Max that his daughter is out of control and needs serious help…

Meanwhile, Carol is shocked when Bianca hands over the letter from David Wicks, which contains an apology for what he did before. When Bianca later asks Peter where the letter came from, he points her in Ian's direction. Ian is soon forced to admit to Bianca that he found the letter in a box in Derek's old lock-up.

Later, after Ian has handed the box over to Carol, Bianca takes out a piece of paper with a phone number on it. She dials the number in the hope that it can lead her to David, but the person on the other end of the phone doesn't know who he is. However, when Bianca mentions Derek's name and where she found the number, the individual in question is very interested indeed. Who is Bianca speaking to?

Elsewhere, Alice still seems to be on a downward spiral and steals a key ring from a stall at the market. However, Bianca spots her and takes it back - warning Alice not to go down that road. Joey also spots this incident and once they're back at Number 23, he tries to find out from Alice why she did it. Alice breaks down in tears as she opens a cupboard and shows Joey her stash of stolen goods.

Also today, Sam tells a disappointed Ava that he'll be leaving Walford as soon as his car is fixed, and Jack decides to let Michael stay with him while he's so fragile.
