EastEnders has aired the first appearance of three new Mitchell characters in the show’s latest
episode. In the previous episode, Will Mitchell had got into an altercation with his grandad Stevie,
after he found out that he’d stolen Lola’s charity money. When Will refused to come clean about
his crime, Stevie grabbed him. Will pushed him away and Stevie fell to the floor, hitting his head on the table. In the latest episode, Will rushed out of the house – leaving the door wide open – and Phil spotted him when he knocked over some bins.
