EastEnders: Louise Mitchell’s Return To Walford Revealed

Viewers will see the return of Louise Mitchell, Phil Mitchell’s daughter, on EastEnders this week and we now have a look at her return to Albert Square.

Louise, now played by Tilly Keeper, will make a dramatic comeback to the Square next week.

She returns to her former home to inform the Mitchells of some shocking news in next Monday’s (18 January) instalment.

Later this week, Phil, who is suffering from cirrhosis of the liver, goes to visit his daughter only to collapse and be rushed to hospital.

Louise then returns to Walford to let her stepmum Sharon and half-brother Ben know that Phil is poorly.

But how will they react to see Phil and Lisa Fowler’s little girl all grown up and as feisty as her grandma Peggy? A chip off the old block, we reckon! She’ll fit right in.

News of Tilly’s casting as Louise broke last month. The 18-year-old actress said, “I am so thrilled to be joining the cast of EastEnders, especially to be joining the Mitchell clan! It’s a dream come true and I can’t wait to get stuck into the role and see what lies in store for Louise.”

Viewers last saw Louise on-screen in 2010 when she was living with Phil. However, as his mum Peggy became more and more worried about his behaviour, she returned Louise to live with mum Lisa.

These scenes air on Monday 18 January at 8pm on BBC One
