Phil Mitchell horrifies Sharon Watts when he threatens Jada in Thursday's episode of EastEnders (7:40 pm. see our TV Guide for full listings).

Phil Mitchell is determined to be there for Sharon Watts and her surprise granddaughter baby Alyssa after learning that Alyssa's mum Jada left her on the doorstep. Although it's a shock that Sharon's late son Denny Rickman fathered a child, it's clear that Sharon wants to do the right thing.

After visiting Sharon and the baby, Phil answers a knock on the door and it's Jada. He demands to know why she left the baby on the doorstep. Using strong-arm tactics – as per usual – Phil tells Jada to turn round and walk away!

Sharon is horrified when she hears what Phil has said to Jada. Has he ruined her careful work negotiating with a fragile Jada over the baby's care?

Dotty Cotton is at the fast food place with mum Sandy Gibson, totally unaware that Rocky Cant has collapsed and is lying unconscious in the house!

She promises Sandy that she's going to sort things out for her and tells her that she's paid a deposit for a place at rehab for her.

It's quite clear that drug addict Sandy is much more interested in getting her hands on the money than getting help to overcome her addiction, frustrating Dotty.

When Dotty gets home she is stunned to see Rocky being rushed away in an ambulance...
