A rageful Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) finds himself isolated from just about everyone in next week’s EastEnders, after his anger pushes those closest to him away.

The Walford hardman – who, lets be fair, isn’t exactly known for wearing his emotions on his sleeve – continues to drive a wedge between himself and everyone else as he refuses to welcome

Stevie Mitchell (Alan Ford) back into the family fold.

The week begins with Phil enlisting his lawyer Ritchie Scott (Sian Webber) to dig up dirt on Stevie, and discovers that Stevie has been lying to son Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick).

After learning that birth mother Val is dead from Stevie, who shares the story of her tragic death, a heartbroken Billy turns to Phil for support, who tells him to wise up to who Stevie really is.

However, Billy’s son Will (Freddie Phillips) later accidentally reveals that Phil was the one who framed Stevie for stealing the charity money from Lola Pearce’s fundraiser, and Billy rages at Phil for trying to wreck his relationship with his dad.

Later in the week, Stevie announces he is planning to leave Walford, and has a confrontation with Phil, who is soon enraged to discover his car is missing and calls the police.As Billy and long-lost brother Teddy (Roland Manookian) arrange a family meal at Walford East, Phil is not on the guest list until Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick) asks him to join them.

Teddy tries to smooth things over between the family, but tensions boil over when Phil says some nasty things about Stevie, prompting Teddy’s son Harry (Elijah Holloway) to rile him up over his missing motor.

With Phil’s temper flaring, will he be able to put history to bed for the sake of the ‘faaaaamily’?
