EastEnders
If you missed ´óÏó´«Ã½ Red Button taking an exclusive look into what life has been like for Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) while he's been in prison on Tuesday, you can catch it again this week.
After months of being hounded and terrorised by a mystery stalker, Phil was horrified to find out that his son, Ben Mitchell, was behind it all. Phil was then hit with a second betrayal when he found out that Ben had also been working with the police to frame him for Stella's murder. On his birthday, Phil was led away by the police and locked up.
While the rest of the Mitchell family work on how to get him out, enjoy an exclusive glimpse into what life has been like for Phil Mitchell behind bars. Follow Phil as he's given the task of showing new young prisoner Devon (Tobi Bakare) the ropes. But when Devon clashes with the prison's dangerous top dog, Craig Jenkins (Glenn Doherty), how far is Phil prepared to go to save someone else? The red button is sure to reveal all.
