Julie seeks alternative care options for Nigel in EastEnders

But will Phil be open to it?

 13-19 DECEMBER

With filming for Nigel’s film underway, Julie books him a GP appointment to discuss his updated symptoms, but it’s clear Phil isn’t happy about it, and purposely withholds details from the doctor.

Later, Nigel frets when he makes a discovery. And when Nigel loses his cufflinks, Julie and Phil help him, but things soon take an upsetting turn when a confused Nigel unintentionally knocks Julie in the process.

As Julie attempts to speak to Phil about alternative care options, Phil refuses to engage.

EastEnders continues Mondays to Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One with first look episodes available from 6am on BBC iPlayer
