EastEnders' Alfie and Zack 'in danger' as fans 'rumble tragic Tommy twist'

viewers fear that two characters could be in danger as Tommy Moon's violent behaviour worsened this week.

The teen was shown lashing out at his mother Kat Slater again, as well as his father Alfie Moon. But when Freddie Slater was also on the receiving end of his temper, amid an abuse storyline, it was revealed Tommy's younger siblings had also been left with bruises.

Jean Slater called social services and soon Kat and Tommy were being questioned. As Thursday's episode went on, Tommy continued to lash out at his family.

He was heard telling Kat and Alfie he hoped he would be taken away, not wanting to be near them or live with them any longer. He said he hated it there and hated them, blaming them for his behaviour.

With Kat in turmoil she raced around Walford trying to find somewhere appropriate for Tommy to stay, after she was told they had to be separated. With Tommy's situation being assessed he had to live apart from his mum and his siblings, and soon Zack Hudson offered to help out.

Zack had become a foster carer late last year with his ex Whitney Dean, with them looking after a young boy. The social worker spoke with Zack and told Kat they would need to run the necessary checks to determine if Tommy could stay with him.

With that, Tommy headed to Zack's flat and Zack vowed to Kat he would take care of her son. Kat was told Tommy could not return home until he no longer posed a threat.

But fans can't help but think Tommy will get worse, and that he could leave two characters in danger. With Zack actor recently teasing a huge new storyline for the character, some fans wondered if it was tied into this storyline with Tommy.

Is Zack in danger knowing Tommy's temper? Other fans think Alfie will be attacked if not killed by his son, after rumours of a fire spreading in Walford.

Viewers have been convinced the Minute Mart will go up in flames after it was pictured boarded up recently. With Alfie getting the job as manager there, fans think Tommy could set fire to the place to get at him and possibly hurt him.

Taking to social media, one fan theorised: "I have this strange feeling that Tommy will set fire to the minute mart knowing Alfie works there to get a vendetta on Alfie.. I could be wrong." Another fan said: "I don't want anything to happen I really don't."

As for Zack, one fan said: "I think we all can guess that Zack big new storyline have something to do with Tommy and apparently it is something different, and even the actor was shocked with the storyline so I wonder if it is something to do with Tommy." Another said: "Zack has a big storyline coming up that's got to involve Tommy now."
