After spending the night with Harvey, Kathy sent him a text message saying: “Miss you already.”

However, viewers spotted a major blunder when Kathy held her phone upside down.

Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one fan wrote: “at least try holding it the right way round #EastEnders”.

Another replied: “Awe leave her she’s old and trying to figure out how a phone works.”

A third joked: “Well she could see enough to be smiling about Harvey so it did the job.”

The Walford residents failed to notice the slip-up as they continued ordering food and drinks from the café, engaging in conversation with a very distracted Kathy.

But the guilt of sleeping with Harvey began to weigh on Kathy after speaking to Jean, who is also seeing Harvey.

Jean thanked Kathy for all her help, support, and advice as the family struggled with the death and loss of Martin.

Jean’s kindness made Kathy reconsider her actions, despite telling Harvey: “You make me smile for the first time in a very long time.”

She added: “I just wish it wasn’t like this.”

Will Kathy put her happiness aside and end the affair?

Also in the episode, the soap exposed its latest killer in a horrifying bombshell.
