Over the past few weeks, EastEnders viewers have watched Michelle Fowler get relentlessly tormented by the guy she briefly dated, Tom. And in newly-released pictures, the department store assistant will take matters into her own hands after Tom approaches her on the streets of Walford. Annoyed by his presence, Michelle - who is played by actress Jenna Russell - shocks fellow residents as she pins him against a wall in defence. This comes after Michelle receives a message from Tom asking why she is at hospital with her brother Martin and his wife Stacey Fowler.

Following the dramatic confrontation with Tom, a shaken Michelle asks best friend Sharon for help, who eventually gets in touch with the police to update them on the worrying situation. Tom has been stalking the Albert Square resident ever since the pair crossed paths on the tube with Tom thinking Michelle bears a resemblance to his dead wife.
