Brought up in care, Lola expects nothing from life – which is why she takes what she wants and does what she wants without thinking of the consequences. But while she’s a mouthy, light-fingered little madam, she doesn’t always deserve the bad breaks she gets.
Wound up by Phil’s taunts about the identity of the father of her child (oddly something not many Walford residents have been bothered about), she gets involved in a street brawl and lashes out at Alexa. Not a good idea when you’ve only just had your tag removed. But it’s what she does later when the police and social services get involved that shocks
the Square.
About this programme
Lola's joy at having her tag removed is dampened when Trish announces she will be visiting daily, and from then on her day just gets worse. The teen mum argues with Phil and is then forced to defend Abi against the cruel taunts of her old friend Alexa. The confrontation leads to a fight that could have huge consequences for the young mum's own future. Meanwhile, Michael faces a terrible decision about Scarlett, while Kat receives an envelope containing a key. Dare she visit her ex-lover again?
