EastEnders SPOILER: Trouble for the Taylors as Keegan’s dad arrives in Walford

He's tracked them down to Walford

Uh-oh, looks like there is trouble in store for the Taylor clan in EastEnders when Keegan’s dad, Mitch Baker, arrives in E20 next month.

Yep, ANOTHER Taylor is arriving.

Actor Roger Griffiths (Casualty, Doctors, Holby City) will take on the role of Mitch from March.

We’ll see him arrive at The Arches in his first episode and it’s soon revealed that he’s Keegan’s dad and Karen’s ex.

It also quickly becomes obvious that Mitch has a chequered history with the Taylors and we’re left wondering if it’s a mere coincidence that he’s in Walford when his van breaks down.

He’s only in Walford for a short time but show bosses are promising that Mitch will have a big impact on the Taylor clan.

And, apparently, his shifty behaviour will have us all asking ‘what’s Mitch really after?’

Roger said of his new role: “The Taylors are an established tight-knit family on the square, so coming in as Mitch – the wild card, meant I had to hit the ground running.

“I had a brilliant time and the actors who make up the Taylor family made me feel at home instantly.

“It was love at first sight.”
