EastEnders: Terror ahead for Roxy as Queen Vic is robbed

Roxy Mitchell is left terrified next month as she is the victim of a robbery attempt at the Queen Vic.

In charge of The Vic while Alfie is out, Roxy faces a crisis when a dodgy builder named Jozef becomes determined to steal the pub’s takings.

Jozef’s first attempt at getting the cash sees him approach the till while the bar staff are distracted. Fortunately, he is stopped in his tracks by Kat Moon when she spots what he’s up to.

Although Kat has helped out by thwarting Jozef’s plan, the good deed is thrown back in her face as Roxy is furious to see her behind the bar following her split from Alfie. Roxy is quick to point out that it’s not Kat’s place anymore and tells her to leave.

Outside the pub shortly afterwards, Kat senses that more trouble is ahead when she spots a purposeful Jozef heading back inside The Vic.

Soon afterwards, it’s clear that Kat was right to be worried when Jozef follows Roxy upstairs as she heads off to put money in the safe.

Roxy stands frozen on the spot as Jozef appears in the doorway and tells her to hand over the cash.

Trying to hide her fear, Roxy pretends that Alfie will be back any minute, but Jozef can see through her lies and grabs Roxy’s arm. Will Kat come to Roxy’s rescue?

EastEnders airs these scenes on Tuesday, May 7 and Thursday, May 9 at 7.30pm on BBC One.
