4 EastEnders spoilers next week
1. Phil Mitchell finds out that Keanu Taylor staged Albie Watts's kidnapping
Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) grows suspicious of Karen when she begins splashing the cash in The Vic, much to the annoyance of Mitch.
Mitch (Roger Griffiths) goes to confront Keanu over the kidnap plot and for involving Karen, but he has no regrets. Rattled by his family's behaviour, Mitch gets into a car accident when his van hits Harvey's (Ross Boatman) taxi.
When Kat (Jessie Wallace) demands Mitch pay for the damage, Karen goes behind his back to settle the debt using the stolen ransom money. Phil examines the notes Karen gave to Kat and notices they are his marked bills, but Kat wants more proof.
Phil is on a mission to prove Keanu and Karen were involved in Albie's kidnapping. Later on, Phil sneakily sends Tommy (Sonny Kendall) over to 23b who finds the money hidden under Karen's bed.
As all of this is going on, Sharon announces that she and Keanu will have their wedding reception at The Vic on Christmas Day, just moments before Phil bursts in and tells her that Karen and Keanu staged Albie's kidnap for money.
