Phil encounters a distressing mishap in EastEnders!
In the latest episodes of EastEnders, viewers were treated to a series of compelling storylines that delved into the lives of some of the show's most beloved characters.
One of the most poignant storylines revolves around Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden), who is currently acting as a carer for his friend Nigel Bates (Paul Bradley), who has been diagnosed with dementia. The bond between these two characters has been a highlight of the show, and their friendship has been put to the test as Nigel struggles with memory problems.
Recent episodes have seen Phil find Nigel outside barefoot, a sign that Nigel's memory lapses have led him to forget where he is. The situation became even more dangerous when Nigel caused chaos in the kitchen, leading to a near-disaster involving a pan of boiling water.
Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) noticed Phil was injured and realised something was wrong. She rallied to support her friend, as did Martin Fowler (James Bye), who is also struggling because he cares for Nigel.
Meanwhile, Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) is running the Vic due to her mother Elaine's (Harriet Thorpe) continued spiraling after a break-up. Elaine agreed to host an 85th birthday party at the Vic, but her emotions got the better of her when she saw George Knight back on the premises. The tension between them was palpable, and any hope of a truce was destroyed.
Denzel Danes (Jaden Ladega) invited Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall) to 20 Albert Square, but he deliberately left out Joel Marshall (Max Murray) due to his attempts to get closer to Amy Mitchell (Ellie Dadd).
Despite the challenges, there was a moment of respite for Linda when George Knight helped her behind the bar. She felt overwhelmed, but his support gave her the strength to carry on.
EastEnders continues to air Monday to Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One, and fans can catch up on the latest episodes on BBC iPlayer. For the latest updates, reviews, and unmissable series to watch, subscribe to our website Newsletter.
