EastEnders character Billy Mitchell is facing life in prison after Phil made it seem like he was responsible for the death of DCI Keeble’s dad.
But what does this mean for Billy?
Is he leaving EastEnders? Is he going to prison?
EastEnders: Why is Billy facing prison?
In a flashback episode it was revealed that Phil, Grant and Billy were involved in a warehouse robbery in the 1970s, which was planned by Phil and Grant’s dad, Eric.
At the robbery, Eric shot and killed a security guard.
The security guard was revealed to be the father of DCI Keeble, who viewers know has had a problem with the Mitchell family.
Last year Phil corroborated Keeble’s claims that his cousin Billy killed her father.
While Billy is innocent, he was at the robbery when Keeble‘s dad was killed and had obtained the firearm used in the murder.
