A seething Ben Mitchell is set to furiously confront Kathy Beale’s rapist James Willmott-Brown on EastEnders next week as he wields a hammer close to the nasty villain’s head, leaving us questioning how far his anger will push him.
In upcoming scenes, Ben’s father Phil will be seen trying to split him up from recent Walford arrival Luke Browning after finding out that he is the son of James.
Ben and Phil fall out over the matter and, not wanting the father and son’s relationship to be destroyed, Ben’s mother Kathy Beale is forced to tell him that she was previously raped by James.
A distraught Ben looses his way as he tries to deal with the resulting upset and anger after Kathy’s admission.
When James discovers Ben knows about the past, he asks Luke what happened and then invites Ben to meet him.
After deliberating, Ben decides to go ahead with the meeting but it soon becomes clear he has a deadly plan, which will see Ben wielding a potential weapon as he angrily confronts James.
But, how far will Ben go? And will James manage to turn around the situation?
These scenes will air on BBC One on Thursday 16 November at 7.30pm.
