Phil Mitchell accused of child abuse after making big mistake in EastEnders
PHIL Mitchell is accused of child abuse after making a big mistake in EastEnders.
It’s an intense week for the Mitchell family in the BBC soap after Billy’s dad Stevie is accused of stealing the money raised at a talent show in honour of Lola Pearce.
At the café, Stevie tries to probe Billy’s son Will about his involvement – knowing he is being blackmailed for posting a photo online – and while the teen initially throws him off the scent, he eventually confesses all to his grandad.
Stevie counsels Will to confess and loses his temper when Will refuses.
In a moment of madness, Will knocks Stevie over and rushes off, leaving his grandad motionless on the floor.
Thankfully, Phil sees Will bolting out of the flat and goes in to find unconscious Stevie and calls the ambulance.
The Mitchells all rush to the hospital and Phil confronts Will about what happened.
The teen confesses everything leaving Phil to go and find Kyle, the boy blackmailing Will.
Later, Phil invites Callum and Jay to watch the football with him.
All is going well until Kevin, Kyle’s father, arrives and accuses Phil of terrorising his child.
What will Phil say – or do – next?
Meanwhile it all kicks off at the hospital after three new faces arrive looking for Stevie – Teddy, Harry and Barney Mitchell.
Stevie lies to Teddy about who Will is after he sees them together at the hospital, but the newcomer is suspicious and heads back to Albert Square to find out more.
Later, Billy gets a text from Elaine to say Will is in the bar with a man she doesn’t recognise.
Everyone rushes to The Vic, where it looks like a fight is about to kick off until Stevie reveals that Teddy is Billy’s brother…
Billy is reeling at Stevie’s revelation, but Teddy demands to know who put his dad in hospital.
