That's a debatable statement, even though I'm not much of an EE follower I get the feeling with Phil he's been in it for donkeys years and is rightly a legend. But I think they've pretty much done all they can with the character and now we have his past plots repeating itself, I believe he's just been shot again...

I think because he's too predictable now, whenever he has a feud with anyone he'll come out on top. I like Phillip

I think Phil is fab! Some of the things he comes out with are so classic. Just feel sorry for him ending up with the wide-eyed pig-in-a-wig!

I'm sick of him. I can't think of any redeeming qualities.

Couldn't agree more. Phil has been tedious for many years.

Because he is behaves in an absolutely horrible way, has done for years and never gets any significant comeuppance.

My feeling hatred for the personality of the character doesn't mean that I don't fine him interesting or want him gone. I just wish he was treated as quite such an invincible god by the storyluners.

Yeah but he doesn't get away with it....what do you think he's got away with?

His kids mean everything to him and he's lost Louise forever and Ben ended up in Jail for murder and he's gay which affects Phil (sadly). He's also prone to alcohol and drugs so personally, I don't think Phil has gotten away scott-free at all.....

I have no idea, apparently Phil is useless, but the show is firing on all cylinders, amazing, the best it's been in 30 years, etc...

Phil is brilliant. a proper legend and I enjoy every scene with him. Last night and Monday night his scenes were one of few highlights.

Because he never gets his just deserts.

He's a vile, nasty thug with a very few redeeming features and we're expected to cheer him on.

Ugh.

He's horrible.

Steve M is a great actor and plays the part well, no doubt about that but the character is tired and predictable. The only time he does show any depth now is his scenes with Ben. This is the only time I find him remotely interesting and that's pushing it.

It's like others said. He never gets what's coming to him. He continues to treat characters like crap and still come out on top. How I would have loved Sharon to go through with her revenge. How I would have loved Sharon and Shirely to team up. However I would have loved Charlie to get one over on Phil. However I would have loved...

I can seriously go on forever.

Sure he was shot again but both storylines were totally different.
The 2001 shooting was a whodunit half the square had reason to shoot phil.

The 2014 shooting was because of Shirley who was jealous of Sharon marrying him. She had the gun and got the wrong end of the stick. She thought Sharon had always planned to shoot him but the gun was infact Ronnie's.

No need to be so nasty about Letitia Dean's looks.
