EastEnders has released some new images from the Mitchell family's upcoming flashback episode.
The one-off special episode airing on Monday, September 5 will offer a glimpse at the Mitchells in 1979, showing what life was like for the family during a tough economic time in Britain.
The episode will see Peggy (played by Jaime Winstone), trying to run a busy household and keep her marriage to Eric together.
Eric, meanwhile, decides to take Phil and Grant out on a 'job' in order to give them some work experience, despite Peggy's disapproval.
The episode ties in with an ongoing storyline in the current day, as Phil Mitchell faces pressure from DI Keeble to come through with his promise to become a police informant.
Daniel Delaney, who's playing the younger version of Phil, recently hinted that we'll see a different side of the soap hardman.

He said: "Phil is more timid for sure. The audience will get to see and know the dynamic in the Mitchell household when Eric – Phil's dad – was around. He was seen as man of the house and Phil was seen as the understudy, as it were, but it's going to be fun, it's going to be a very different Phil.

"I'm looking forward to getting people's reaction and I also think it's important that the Mitchell family's story gets told."
Viewers will also get to see Billy in action too as George Greenland takes on the role that Perry Fenwick made famous, promising answers for fans.
The star suggested that Billy "would probably be quite happy at where he ends up," noting: "He's had some nice relationships, had kids, I think he would be content with that considering where he has come from and his experiences growing up.
"I don't think he would have been setting himself these mad goals. I think young Billy just wants a solid life, and I think he's done well!"
EastEnders airs on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer.
