If it's on Wikipedia take it with a pinch of salt!

I rarely watch EastEnders but from what I've seen here on Digital Spy isn't Phil Mitchell awaiting a liver transplant because he's suffering from cirrhosis of the liver and if it's not sorted he won't have much longer to live?

Wikipedia also says Blazin Squad's name between 1990 and 1999 was Liberal Democrats.

Did you edit the wiki post to say that?

Edit. Someone must have edited it cos I can't see it saying what you say? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Mitchell

How could he be in Panto every night with his health issues. He needs a new liver

To be fair it also has a note on it to tell you why as with Mo Harris and 1 or 2 other recurring characters over the last couple of years

That would be my deepest wish.

Sadly Mitchell will still be intimidating gangsters, regiments of the SAS and professional boxers well into his '90's.

Libby, Mo, Jean & Christian all have notes next to them- guesting as of when.

Max, Cora & Sonia are listed as regulars because all are returning to the show.

I could imagine Steven maybe taking a year out at some point in the near future but i think Steve will be with EE until his dying breath. He's too committed and loyal to the show.

I hope not. He's the main reason I watch.

I wish, but like with Dot and Ian, I think he's gonna be at the show until the actor's last breath.

I doubt Steve is going anywhere. He's been on the show more than 25 years so is obviously committed to it. He's completely typecast as Phil anyway so would likely struggle to get work away from EE.

Even though Phil is a bit tired at the moment (and would greatly benefit from a 6-12 month hiatus, like Max) Steve is still the best actor in the show and a huge part of the EastEnders 'brand'. He also plays the best drunk I've ever seen
