Sharon Mitchell (Letitia Dean) is finding it harder and harder to keep a lid on her guilty EastEnders secret – that the baby she is carrying is Keanu Taylor’s (Danny Walters). With Lisa Fowler (Lucy Benjamin) determined to finish Mel Owen’s (Tamzin Outhwaite) work of exploding the secret, she continues to profess to Phil that Sharon cheated and the baby isn’t his.
She has started to get through to him, leaving him doubting his lying wife but he was soon distracted when Louise’s (Tilly Keeper) waters broke and she went into labour. As she gives birth to baby Peggy tonight, all is momentarily forgotten as the family pull together.
Well, most of them. Sharon is nowhere to be seen. And when Phil catches her out lying about where she has been, he is more sure than ever that Lisa’s claims are correct – so now he just has to find out exactly who she cheated with so he can exact his revenge.
Earlier tonight, he questions Sharon and she acts affronted by the very prospect that she is hiding anything, leaving Phil apologetic. But as the realisation dawns later on that she is still lying to him, this just makes him angrier.
In coming episodes, he will suspect that Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) is the father of the baby – and will exact a violent vengeance upon him. Arming himself with a gun, he takes Jack hostage and leaves him in a bad way. But he will eventually realise that he has got the wrong man.
By the time Christmas Day comes, the truth will be ready to come out in spectacular fashion – and Sharon, Keanu, Louise and Phil’s worlds all crumble in a massive showdown.
With Phil on the case tonight, it’s the beginning of some serious Walford drama…
EastEnders continues on Friday 6 December at 8:30pm on BBC One.
