Nigel Missing After Emotional Exit – Can Phil and Julie Agree on His Future Before It’s Too Late? 🧠💔🔍

Thursday’s episode appeared to serve as an exit for Nigel and Julie as they left Walford together – but spoilers for next week have revealed their story is not over yet.

As we return to Walford on Monday, Julie arrives back at Phil’s without Nigel, and Phil is worried when she informs him that Nigel is AWOL.

Upon hearing the news, Jay Brown (Jamie Borthwick), Callum Highway (Tony Clay) and Yolande Trueman (Angela Wynter) then launch a frantic hunt for him.

Fortunately, it isn’t long before they manage to track Nigel down and bring him back to No.55 – but tensions between Julie and Phil soon flare up again, as they butt heads about what should happen next.

Jay and Yolande try to reason with Julie and Phil respectively, but will they manage to make the pair reach some sort of compromise about Nigel’s future care?
