Grant Mitchell Hits Peggy Mitchell (23rd April 1998)

This clip was blocked for containing the closing titles so I have re-uploaded it.
Grant Mitchell lashes out....

[@eddieconner2274]

Grant has more of a heart then Phil, when phillip hit his mother he didn’t care

[@george_fg]

Kids are a hard spot for Phil, so Peggy saying he’s unfit to be a parent annoyed him. And Phil also thinks that he can get away with hitting Peggy because she let him get beaten by his father

[@H.K.5]

Grant's childhood was easier than Phil's. Grant was basically the golden child of the family while Phil was constantly beaten and abused by their dad. I'm not saying Grant had an easy life growing up but it wasn't as hard as Phil's.

[@kelsian_smith03]

@@H.K.5 i know it’s pretty late to comment but Grant probably went to the army because of the trauma of seeing Phil and Peggy getting battered and probably Grant was battered by his dad too but all because he’s the younger brother they forgot about him

[@abbieroseholden4174]

Peggy forgets she married a physco as well

[@accountuser5588]

Interesting how when Grant hit Peggy he instantly regretted it but then when Phil did it, he just stood there.

[@shamimislam3201]

I was thinking the same thing he was so gulity but Phil didn't give a shit.

[@clairelally3644]

That was always the difference between the two of them.

[@accountuser5588]

Shgarli Mandoza Yes but Grant showed remorse, Phil didn’t. Phil just stood there as if to say I’ll do it again. Grant however looked as if he wanted to beg for forgiveness.

[@accountuser5588]

N Nicky That might be true but then again Phil always lacked remorse. He slapped Sharon that same way in 2003 and couldn’t have cared less.

Love that Peggy defends Tiff. She really adored her. The only wife or husband she approved of for her kids. Think Tiff was the daughter she always wanted lol

[@alannahfidler3418]

Peggy was a judgemental cow at the best of times, how she can over look grant and phils violent behaviour is a joke

[@jhflau73]

Yeah. She chose to confide in Tiffany instead of her kids when she had breast cancer. She never slapped her either like she did with the others.

[@pumpkineater69seven17]

Tiffany was a rock for Peggy when she was being diagnosed and had to tell the family about her cancer, peggy who had already expressed her disapproval of their marriage must of taken note of this and eventually changed her mind saw an episode today when peggy comes home from the operation Tiffany comes down the stairs and gives her a massive hug straight away ,I think peggy was thawed out by Tiffany's natural charm and kindness.

[@Sawrattan]

Ironic that Peggy approved of Grant's least favourite wife/lover.

[@joebloggs2857]

Mark and Ruth used bore the shit out of me

[@Darskul]

How did Phil react to this? If it was brought up to him? Grant and Phil need each other to sort each other out.

[@rezlynxium7400]

Peggy should keep her nose out of Grant and Tiffany's business but the same moral goes for Grant: Don't physically hit your parents.

[@JayJay-nc7pr]

The moment Peggy finally understood why Sharon left Grant and had a fling with Phil, shame she would forget this upon her return a few years later, Tiffany bless her was only ever a rebound wife for Grant as he still wasn’t over Sharon after all these years, to be honest I find most of the mid to late 90s EE a bit dry, EE was golden in its first 9 years from 1985-1994 right up to the Sharongate episodes, 1995-2001 was too up and down lots of departures during this time; Michelle, Sharon, Kathy in particular, 2001-2006, was a better era but the series has been going downhill for years now

[@alannahfidler3418]

I agree although I’d say 1999-2002 was probably the last ‘golden age’ of Eastenders.

Go Peggy! She really adored Tiffany 😍🤗 loved their bond. Peggy said she got through the cancer thanks to Tiff. Tiff wouldn't have had it easy at all without Peggy standing by her... She was even gonna let Tiff and Courtney go far away from Grant. Was gonna call the police on him right before Tiff died. Ohhh I miss them two!

[@j04370859]

2:31 and then Peggy still defended Phil and Grant but blamed Sharon when she came back in 2001 and still to this day, the writers probably forgot about this scene.

[@notgillcup]

Exactly. I find it funny how she defends Tiffany for the abuse she suffered at Grant's hands yet slags off Sharon when the same thing happened to her!!

[@Sawrattan]

@@notgillcup I think Tiffany's age played a part, Peggy saw her as a bit naive like a daughter, whereas Grant's other women were more mature and therefore seemed more aloof to Peggy.

[@accountuser5588]

@@Sawrattan Also Sharon cheated on Grant with Phil, something in which Tiffany never did.

[@accountuser5588]

@@Sawrattan Nah Sharon was only about 20 when she got together with Grant and Tiffany was around the same age so that wasn't it.

Great scenes. Thanks. Grant was draining at times, but still interesting as a character to the end. (well, in his first run anyway) Ruth was such a misery by this point. Ugh. I always thought Tony was cute.
