Does Grant Die and Phil Get's his Liver?
Just a thought I had. Ross said he's back for three weeks. The current storyline suggests ordinarily he'd be in it long term. But we know that isn't happening. So, does Grant and Mark Fowler II get in a fight which causes Grant to die which in turn results in Phil getting his liver? Ross also said "It was very hard to finally say goodbye".
Any thoughts? |

EastEnders will not kill off Grant Mitchell they will keep him alive at all costs in the hope that Ross Kemp will agree to comeback as Grant. I don't know how they are going to end up resolving the Phil liver story but i doubt it will be Phil getting his liver.

I hope not! I'd rather Phil die, Mark stay with Martin and bond with Ben, Jay, Courtney and Louise and have Grant go back to Portugal. Mark fitting in with the fowler/beale clans would be better long term.

Any thoughts? The only way somebody can donate to a specific person they request is if it is a live donation like bone marrow or a kidney or a liver lobe. |

I'm hating all this talk of Phil dying, I know they won't kill him off but it's worrying when they keep saying he's dying

Grant Mitchell is immortal. No producer would ever have the courage to kill him and I bet the BBC wouldn't allow it either.

They could always both drop dead, lets see Les and Pam at work one last time before they retire to Brighton or some other non-London location

I doubt they would kill off Grant after all the trouble they had persuading Ross Kemp to come back

Organ donation doesn't work that way - the organs go to the person highest on the transplant list which is a match. Even if the person that dies has a relation in dire need of an organ, and they were a match, you can't queue jump in that way.

I did mention the possibility of killing Grant on the Xmas thread ![]() He doesn't fit into the show now, his latest episodes have been pointless so killing him off is for the best, Phil atleast has a purpose on the show so keeping him alive with Grants kidney is the best way forward. |

Unless Ross told them the only way he would come back is if Grant is killed off.

Why does Grant have to die to save Phil? Surely the easiest way is for Grant to be a Living Donor.

I can't imagine they would kill off Grant. I'm guessing Mark Jr comes over after the call Phil made to him, and the pictures released of Phil talking to a young male actor.
With regards to Phil's liver, I doubt Grant would donate seeing as he told Phil to drink himself to death, and argued with him this week, however with Grant now in need of money he could give part of his liver to Phil with the idea of them doing one last 'job' together (ripping off gangsters dealing with briefcases of cash (Grant's first departure)). I wonder though if Ben would be a donor, the two do seem to be getting closer and helping one another. Another thought would be Mark Jr donating part of his liver to his uncle Phil. |

My understanding is live liver donation between adults is not yet approved in England and the fact the Phil's specialist did not suggest it sounds like it may not be an option. It carries a 1 in 200 death risk to the donor. I guess if they go down that route they will go abroad to do it privately but who would pay for it, I'd guess it's not cheap!

I think misty cloud is right.
Although the liver is a regenerative tissue and living lobe transfer is possible and i believe has been done, I don't think it is a generally approved procedure unlike kidney or bone marrow although i think it it done sometimes. I can only imagine the reason is down to risk to the donor or a low success rate for the recipient. I imagne that even with a living donor, if in a trust that allowed it, the recipient would have to have had a certain period of time clean of Alcohol to be considered as it would affect their general health, also it isn't a full transplant so they'd need the liver they were attaching the healthy tissue to, to be as health as possible. Also, the need the the recipient, if it is from Alcohol Abuse, to completely understand what they are getting and not think "great new liver, I can start drinking fresh". The cast majority of alk transplants will still come from cadaver transplants which means absolutely no link between the donor and recipient and no queue jumping, even if a close relative. |

I think it could well be Mark Fowler who cops it!
