Newcomer Stevie Mitchell made a shocking return to EastEnders this week after being absent from his son Billy Mitchell’s life for 25 years. The reunion between Billy and Stevie revealed just how out of touch Stevie was with the family affairs. Stevie even asked for a contact number for his grandson Jamie Mitchell, not knowing that Jamie had tragically died in 2002. It seems that Stevie was kept completely in the dark about Jamie’s death, despite the fact that Jamie had been taken in by his uncle Billy after the death of his father Charlie.
Viewers of the show were left baffled by Stevie’s ignorance, with many taking to social media to express their disbelief. Some questioned how Stevie could have gone so long without knowing about Jamie’s death. One user even wondered if this was the start of a dementia storyline for Stevie, as they found it impossible to believe that he didn’t already know about Jamie’s death.
In addition to the confusion surrounding Jamie’s death, some viewers also questioned whether Stevie knew about Billy’s previous marriage to Honey. It seems that Stevie has a lot of catching up to do and is completely out of touch with his own family’s history.
