In prison, the guards are forced to step in when Phil gets into an altercation with Craig.

After the fight, Phil meets with DCI Samantha Keeble (Alison Newman) who warns him he won’t survive in prison much longer. 

She gives him an ultimatum – he has 48 hours to reconsider the offer. 

Next week, it’s the day of Denny Rickman’s (Bleu Landau) and an unexpected package arrives for him. 

Sharon is both gobsmacked and touched by what she finds but could Phil have anything to do with it?

A desperate Phil turns to Ravi for help offering him money for support. 

Meanwhile, Kat is panicking about the abrupt end to her phone call with her fiancé.

Kat then visits Phil in prison and drops a bombshell, could this be the end for the couple?

Keeble arrives at the prison to speak to Phil but shuts down any hopes of backup. 

Realising his time could really be up, the dodgy dealer asks Sharon to visit and gives her five letters for her and his family. 

She begs him to reconsider Keeble’s offer but he refuses.

Will Sharon tell her ex-husband she still has feelings for him in an effort to convince him to change his mind?

Later, Craig and his henchmen arrive for Phil but is this really the last EastEnders fans will see of the Mitchell hard man?

Back in Walford, it’s the opening night of Peggy’s as Sharon waits for news on what’s happened to Phil.

In previous episodes, Phil told Sam the only person he could truly trust was Sharon and he could be secretly holding a torch for his ex-wife. 

The dodgy dealer has remained adamant about his decision not to give in to Keeble but if he realises it’s his only way to survive he may change his mind. 

Phil would know his enemies would line up to hurt him if he was released from prison but his connections in the dodgy underworld could help him escape Walford for good. 

Will he ask Sharon to go on the run with him?

EastEnders airs on BBC One from Monday to Thursday at 7.30pm.
