“It's Christmas Eve, but Max and Tanya are forced to call off their wedding as Lauren's alcohol-fuelled meltdown has destroyed everything - including Tanya's dress. Lauren is full of regret over her wild behaviour, but Max makes her feel better by letting her in on a secret - he is planning a surprise Christmas Day wedding for Tanya tomorrow!
Later, Max pays a visit to Derek, still livid after hearing about his recent attempts to blackmail Tanya. Confronting his older brother, Max makes it clear to Derek that after tomorrow, he wants nothing more to do with him. However, Derek is left furious by Max's attitude and decides that he wants revenge. Putting a plan into action, Derek makes a phone call that could see Max's world turned upside down…
Meanwhile, Alfie is completely devastated following recent events, although he tries to soldier on for Tommy's sake. Later, when Tommy is away spending time with Kat, Roxy suggests that Alfie should join her as she takes Amy to the local Santa's grotto. However, Kat has had the same idea and the Moons end up coming face-to-face at the grotto. Alfie blanks Kat, but tries his best to make a big effort with Tommy.
Later, Alfie attempts to put on a smile as he is the centre of attention at The Vic, where festive celebrations have turned into a lock-in. However, it's clear that Alfie is still struggling to hold things together.
Elsewhere, Lola is delighted when she pays a visit to Phil's and discovers that Lexi is home in time for Christmas, while Poppy returns and tells Fatboy that she wants to spend the festive season with him.”

“Hour-long episode
It's Christmas Day and Derek turns up for the Branning family's dinner, despite the recent tension with Max. True to form, Derek tries to be the centre of attention as he promotes his position as head of the family. In private, Max and Jack warn Derek that they want him out of their lives once Christmas is over - which only fuels Derek's desire to ruin today for Max. Derek is annoyed further when Joey arrives for the Christmas celebrations after being invited by Max. It's clear that Max is accepting of Joey and Lauren's relationship as he encourages them to sort things out.
Later, Max hands Tanya her Christmas gift and she is overwhelmed to see that it's a wedding dress. She is delighted to realise what Max has planned for the day and preparations soon get under way for the ceremony. As Tanya gets changed into her dress, the day is looking like one to remember for all the right reasons. However, it soon becomes unclear whether the wedding will go ahead at all as Derek's plan falls into place following his phone call yesterday, sending Max's world crashing down around him.
Max's past is back to haunt him thanks to Derek and everyone is stunned by the huge secret he's been hiding, although a smug Derek gloats about causing all the mess. A massive argument erupts between the Brannings, with Derek telling everyone what he really thinks of them. Max, Jack and Joey force Derek out of the house, but what happens next will change the family hierarchy forever…
Meanwhile, Alfie tries to celebrate Christmas as best he can as he spends the day with Mo, Jean, Roxy, Michael, Scarlett, Amy and Tommy. In the evening, Roxy confesses that she loves Alfie as they share a drink - but how will he respond?
Later, Kat arrives at The Vic and begs Alfie to give her another chance, but he makes it clear that she is no longer welcome. Roxy then interrupts the pair as she appears behind the bar. Thinking the worst, Kat rushes out. Are Roxy and Alfie now an item, or has Kat jumped to the wrong conclusion?”

“Hour-long episode
The fallout from Derek's Christmas bombshell continues as Tanya demands to know everything about Max's secret. Will Max's answers be what she wants to hear?
At the same time, Joey has vanished from Walford, while Carol tries her best to support a grief-stricken Alice by encouraging her to move in with the family so that she's not living alone. Alice starts to get more involved with the family when she goes with Max, Jack and Carol to break the news of Derek's death to Jim. Later in The Vic, tensions run high when AJ innocently makes an inappropriate comment about Derek.
Meanwhile, Lola fears that Phil is taking over Lexi's christening plans as he has bought a lavish dress for the youngster. Lola wants Jay and Cora to be her daughter's godparents, but soon learns that Phil has other choices in mind. Billy tries to stand up to Phil by pointing out that it should be Lola's decision, but Lola goes along with Phil's choice on the condition that she gets to spend three hours unsupervised with Lexi. However, when Lola is offered work at Booty and takes Lexi along, she loses track of time.
Elsewhere, Liam has a new games console among his possessions even though nobody bought it for him for Christmas. Bianca is soon horrified to discover that Liam has found Derek's knock-off gear. She is concerned further when Liam has a casual attitude towards the stolen goods, suggesting that they should sell the items to help pay their bills. When Bianca spots Liam selling some of the stash on the Square, she tries to do the right thing - but her plans are thwarted.
Also today, Zainab and AJ's arguments escalate but they later call a truce and vow to team up by getting Ayesha and Tamwar together, while Shirley considers finally getting her act together and finding a job.”
