Grant Mitchell’s long-awaited ‘EastEnders’ homecoming is set to turn sour, when he ends up in a physical fight with brother Phil.
Ross Kemp’s character is back in Walford following the news that his mother Peggy’s cancer is terminal, but when he comes face-to-face with Phil, things don’t go to plan.

As the brothers wrestle with the fact nothing more can be done to save Peggy, tensions rise and they end up doing what Mitchells do best. Yes, they have a fight.
There’s plenty of unfinished business between the pair and when old resentments boil over, they end up coming to blows.
Next week is set to be an emotional one in Albert Square and Barbara Windsor’s final episode will air on Tuesday 17 May.
