This week on EastEnders, there's despair for Phil (Steve McFadden) as a good New Year quickly turns sour when Kat (Jessie Wallace) and Tommy (Sonny Kendall) are kidnapped.
Phil returned to the Square just in time for Christmas and DI Keeble (Alison Newman) wasted no time in piling the pressure back on him to send down Billy (Perry Fenwick) for her father's murder decades ago, even though he was not responsible.
In a twist, it emerged that Phil's old nemesis Keanu (Danny Walters) was secretly working with him to bring down Keeble, but things escalate in the first week of 2023 as she gets even more desperate.
New Year's Day
Phil's thrilled to see in the New Year with his family at Peggy's, but his good mood is short lived when Keanu arrives and begs him to reconsider him being banished from the Square. Phil's having none of it and Keanu leaves, paying Keeble a visit.
