When the time came for Sharon to give a speech about Dennis, she struggled, prompting Ian to take over.

However at the wake, Albert Square residents were shocked to see Sharon’s estranged husband and Dennis’s adoptive dad, Phil, had returned.

Kathy’s dressed like she’s about to moonwalk.

Ever since Sharon found out Phil and Keanu’s fight caused the boat to crash, she has been left furious with Phil, so it comes as no surprise she’s unhappy at his return.

Struggling to remain calm she lashes out at Phil, forcing Ian and Kathy to step in.

However Phil isn’t one to stand back when he wants something.

Later, he is kicking down Ian’s door to talk to Sharon. But it’s not long before Ian calls the police.

Phil leaves before they arrive and soon he finds himself in the Arches.

As Sharon tracks him down, Phil starts to make a decision about his future.
