I don't know if I might have missed something but Billy Mitchell seems to have disappeared from the show altogether these past two months, or more - and at the last count that I can recall, he was last seen working for the Cokers and latterly having a 'washing his hands of Phil' argument with Phil over Ben's link over the Lucy murder or something related to that. As Phil has now gone missing then I thought his nearest thing to a brother in the Square these days might have grown concerned and been featured a bit more - even though he is mostly powder weight! That's of course unless he has left the show and/or Square altogether? Has Billy gone missing with the post?!

Ha, I get your drift! I did miss most of one week of the show sometime in the summer so thought he might have exited the show then or something.....around the time Lola did. If that wasn't the case then he must surely be the longest of the current cast to have been off screen for so long and not featured once, as things presently stand! I thought he might have seen Carol off the other week for example as I think they were always quite chummy! Again, a mystery!

Phil bought him a ticket to go see Honey and the kids in Canada. He's back soon and I'm assuming he brings her back with him.

Billy is one character who should have left by now, bringing back Honey is pointless to me as she was a boring character but as he is a Mitchell must like Roxy and Ronnie they remain in the show!

He will be back soon . Perry was probably due a break.

He appears next week. Billy is a good character and Perry Fenwick can do much more than what they give him, imo

Aah, thanks guys. I must have missed that episode or two then re his Canadian departure. Thanks for the info. It's not that I'm a big BM fan, it's more that I was just curious as to his whereabouts..... as for Honey, another waste of space character really, similar to Billy M., as Vaslav said! Then again BM isn't well written for, as Perry Fenwick is a decent actor....

Couldn't agree more.

I'd have preferred if they had brought back Little Mo instead. Billy's character worked best when he was with her.

Billy is a strange character, they seem determined to do nothing with him when Perry could really shine if they actually put some effort into it.

I agree with this. Little Mo was a much better character than Honey and with much better connections throughout the programme - it'd be great to have some more Slaters again.

It seems as though Billy will return next Monday and then not appear for the rest of the week. I'm assuming that Honey and the kids are returning a week or two after them (they aren't on the cast lists).

However hopefully Billy can be integrated into the Kathy storyline since he knew that she was alive. Also, we still need to find out the CONFIRMED reason why he had Lucy's photos... as well as everyone's mail

I agree but then once Little Mo got over her "Little Mo-ness", she was just a bit of a narky old budgerigar. I loved Little Mo but I'd rather have Honey back as I feel she was wrongly axed in the first place.

Yes, I suppose Billy's part of the Albert Square furniture now really so I always felt that an imminent return was inevitable. I think his character is so typecast now that it would be hard to be able to make him adapt to more 'win, win' scenarios in life now!
