Phil Mitchell has been caught out by Shirley Carter over his grassing in EastEnders.

The Walford crime boss has been informing on his rivals, like Jonah, to DCI Keeble to stay out of prison, having thus far been able to keep his informing secret from the rest of the Square.

That all ended in Tuesday's (October 4) episode when Phil and Kat finally turned their backs on Sam Mitchell after discovering all of the lies and treachery she's been responsible for in the last several months.

Shirley was the one to tip off Phil, but when he was less than gracious, she secretly followed him to his meeting with DCI Keeble to take some incriminating photos.

As Phil and Kat later tried to make sense of Sam's treachery, Shirley showed up to warn Kat that Sam isn't the only one who's been lying about family business.

"You're a grass, ain't you, Phil? Now it makes complete sense that you handed them Billy on a plate," Shirley told Phil right in front of Kat.

When Phil tried to pretended he had no idea what Shirley was talking about, she showed her hand by revealing she'd secured damaging evidence from his meeting with Keeble.

"I've got evidence Phil and I will spread the word," Shirley warned a furious Phil.

That is, unless, Phil completely signed over ownership of Peggy's nightclub to Shirley immediately with "a framed picture of mummy dearest" to boot.

Will Phil hand over the business or risk having his whole life blown up by Shirley?

EastEnders airs on Mondays - Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer.
