Martin is the hero of the hour
Martin Fowler (James Bye) is the man set to lead a search for missing teen Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James) in upcoming EastEnders scenes when she fails to turn up to school.
Martin and Priya Nandra-Hart (Sophie Khan Levy) have been spending time together recently, after going on a date at Peggy’s.
In upcoming scenes, they continue to flirt, but are interrupted by a text from Avani’s school.
Priya is horrified to discover that Avani is playing truant, and she and Martin waste no time in trying to find her.

Thankfully, they manage to track her down to the playground, and soon an equally panicked Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) arrives.
Unruly teen Avani is instantly amused by Ravi blatant jealousy over Martin’s presence, and soon comes up with a plan.
Confiding in Nugget Gulati (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury), she explains that she wants Priya and Ravi to get back together.
Unfortunately for Avani, this won’t be an easy feat, as Priya has already asked Martin on another date.
However, as soon as she finds out, she contacts Ravi and feigns upset that Priya is ill, and soon he arrives at No.41.
When Martin shows up at the same time, he gets the wrong end of the stick and leaves Priya and Ravi to it.
Priya is left fuming at Avani for her interference, and later she and Ravi chastise the tearaway teen.
That doesn’t dampen Avani’s spirit, however, as she later intercepts Martin and Priya’s next date and attempts to ruin it by pouring wine in Martin’s lap.
Will she get her own way, or are Martin and Priya set to go the distance?
