EastEnders reveals Sam Mitchell return details as worrying call leaves Jack furious

EastEnders' Sam Mitchell makes her presence known on the BBC soap next week, as she makes her big return.

The character is soon locking horns with a number of Walford residents, as her brother Phil Mitchell remains behind bars.

She soon gets on the wrong side of Kat and Sharon who are less than pleased to see her, refusing to reveal what has brought her back to Walford after six years since her last visit.

Jack Branning is alarmed to see her again after so long, and despite her assuring him it’s a brief visit he can't help but worry.

The pair share a son named Ricky, who Sam ditched and left behind in Walford with his father.

It appears since then she's not had contact with her son or Jack, so her return leaves him unsettled.

Her true reasons for being back in Walford are not made clear, but she's soon making an enemy of herself with Kat, Sharon and others.

Her nephew Ben is furious to discover what Sam is up to, and he's not the only one.

Sharon fears the worst and enlists Kat’s help, while Sam herself is having doubts over whether she's really up to the task.

Sam reveals all to her cousin Billy about what's going on and why she's there, but she then tells him she’s leaving that night.

Ricky, meanwhile, is stunned to be told his mother is back in Walford having not seen her for so long.

He soon bumps into her at Walford East and the mother and son share an awkward encounter.

Sam sees an opportunity though and confronts Jack, but what has she got up her sleeve?
