EastEnders aired its dramatic flashback episode tonight - which finally explained why DCI Keeble has a vendetta against the Mitchells.
The Detective Chief Inspector has been desperate for Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) to snitch on his cousin Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick) and the flashback episode opened in the present day as DCI Keeble pleaded with Phil to do the right thing. As she explained to Phil that she wanted to check Billy off her list next, he didn't understand her reasoning on why she should go after him.
"He's family; he's a Mitchell. Why are you doing this to me?" Phil asked, as the screen faded to black and fans of the show were transported back to the late 70s in East London as Peggy Mitchell (Jaime Winstone) tried to keep her sons and daughter in check.
