Tommy has been showing signs of aggressive behaviour ever since his mum Kat Moon ended her
marriage to Phil Mitchell over his cheating confession.
In upcoming scenes, Tommy continues acting out by being rude to Yolande Trueman, which leads to a
showdown between the boy and Vic barman George Knight.
George goes so far as to reprimand Tommy in front of his mum Kat, causing more tension among the Moons.

Kat decides to discipline Tommy by grounding him in his bedroom, yet it doesn’t appear that Tommy will be learning his lesson any time soon.
Earlier this week, Tommy was deeply hurt when ex-stepfather Phil yelled at him for playing football outside the Mitchell house.

Even though Stevie has now left Walford, the Mitchell family patriarch gave Phil a parting shot by selling his car out from under him and leaving the profits for Billy.
The tension within the family forced Billy to finally stand up for himself against Phil, including uninviting him to a family dinner.
Phil decided to crash the dinner anyway, where Teddy’s son Harry needled him about his ‘stolen’ car until the two went nose-to-nose. In the end, it was Jay Brown who ended up with a bloody nose when he tried to break up the row.
Phil was eventually warned by Denise Fox that he’d end up a very lonely man unless he addressed his antagonistic behaviour. Will Phil be able to move past his anger?
