EastEnders, Martin Fowler is given fresh hope for a romance with Stacey Branning when he moves in with her next week.

The pair have struck up a friendship in recent weeks but Stacey has made it clear that she isn't interested in anything more.

With Kat and Alfie Moon no longer around, Stacey has a spare room in her flat and propositions Martin, who is keen to move out of Ian's house.

However, Stacey immediately regrets the offer when Martin gets the wrong end of the stick and takes her kind actions to mean something more.

After Martin apologises for his flirtatious behaviour, Stacey agrees to let him move in, but makes it clear that they will only ever be friends.

Despite agreeing to Stacey's conditions, it is evident that Martin has other ideas and he later tells Kush that he will be marrying Stacey within the year.

Later in the week, an optimistic Martin moves in with Stacey, but does she share the same feelings as him?
