EastEnders fans were introduced to the new secret Mitchell family on Wednesday night.
Soap fans will recall that the hit BBC One soap announced earlier this year that Billy Mitchell’s world will be turned upside down this summer when he discovers that his dad, Stevie Mitchell, has been hiding a secret family. The BBC One soap teased at the time: “Stevie’s son Teddy Mitchell will arrive in Walford later this June alongside his sons Harry and Barney in search of his dad, but he soon gets more than he bargained for when he comes face to face with Billy, Phil and the rest of the Mitchell clan.
“Tensions will run high as Stevie confesses that Teddy is Billy’s half-brother, meaning there’s a whole new branch to the Mitchell family that neither Billy nor Phil knew anything about.” Viewers were briefly introduced to the new Mitchell family on Tuesday’s episode in an explosive ending while soap watchers got insight into the new characters on Wednesday night.
On Tuesday night, Teddy, who had been looking for Stevie, learnt his father was in hospital as he paid him a visit. After spotting Stevie with Billy and Will, Teddy decided to find out the truth about their identities as he followed them home to Albert Square. Teddy waited until they had left the property before he found a spare key outside the front door and let himself in, scaring Honey Mitchell in the process.
