EastEnders' Phil Mitchell considers a shock exit with Raymond next week.
Phil (Steve McFadden) is determined to fight for custody of his biological son Raymond, but his plans have been met with unsurprising objection from Denise.
Next week's scenes will see Phil get a call from Ritchie about the situation with Raymond which throws his plans into disarray.
Phil then asks Jack if he can see Raymond, but is told no. Phil's day quickly goes from bad to worse when Phil arrives home to learn that Kat has offered Billy a place to stay.
He really hits the roof when he discovers that Kat has used his money in order to buy an expensive record, in a further bid to help Billy out. Furious, Phil orders Billy to leave.
