Sam Mitchell returns to the Square with trouble in tow in Tuesday's episode of EastEnders (7:30 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings).
Sam Mitchell has been away from Walford since the spring, after taking an executive job in a swish hotel in Spain.
When Sam left, she insisted that she just wanted to earn enough to help provide for her teen son Ricky Mitchell's baby, promising an unimpressed Ricky that she'll be back as soon as she can.
As the months went on with no sign of Sam, a fed up Ricky washed his hands of her, too used to her abandoning him in his hour of need.
Now it seems Sam has come back home but only because she's fleeing a dangerous criminal!
Turning to her brother Phil Mitchell, Sam reveals that she's got herself in big trouble. She got financially involved with the head of a sinister drug gang and she needs to pay him back - fast!
When Phil's wife Kat realises that he's actually considering paying off his flaky sister's debts, she's fuming. She's had enough of Sam causing trouble with her schemes and thinks Phil needs to let her sort out her own mess!
What will Phil do?
