Lily urged Tommy not to go to school, but he couldn\u2019t avoid it for long.<\/p>\n<p>After being asked to play football by a seemingly genuine member of the gang, Tommy waited after school, but found himself trapped in a set-up. As Sid and his mate continued to torment Tommy, he pulled the knife out of his bag as a way of gaining the upper hand, before insisting he was going home.<\/p>\n<p>But when Sid launched an attack, the knife \u2013 now tucked away in its hiding place once more \u2013 punctured him when his victim held his bag up as a protective shield. Frightened by the horrifying events, Tommy ran home and failed to tell mum Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) what had happened.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul><li><strong><a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/soaps\/eastenders\/tommy-moon-knife-eastenders-newsupdate\/&quot;\">EastEnders\u2019 Tommy in knife horror\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/soaps\/eastenders\/eastenders-spoilers-jean-tommy\/&quot;\">Tommy\u2019s bullying ordeal continues in EastEnders\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Sid, meanwhile, revealed Tommy\u2019s role in his injury, and Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) informed Kat that Tommy would need to come to the station for a chat.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about the incident tonight, Tommy was scared as ever \u2013 but covered this with typical Mitchell-style bravado. \u201cPhil says don\u2019t talk to the Old Bill,\u201d he retorted, as Kat encouraged him to tell the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Tommy eventually explained that although he had brought the knife out himself, everything else was an accident. Later, Kat visited Phil (Steve McFadden) in prison and revealed that she didn\u2019t yet know if Tommy would be charged.<\/p> <p>Phil\u2019s attitude towards his sons \u2013 and stepsons \u2013 has always caused them problems. Viewers will remember all too well how he dished out the same advice to a younger Ben (now played by Max Bowden) when he was Tommy\u2019s age \u2013 only to end up attacking his own bully.When Kat told her fianc\u00e9 about Tommy\u2019s initial comment to the police, Phil seemed impressed. But Kat was fed up, knowing that his influence on her son hadn\u2019t helped matters. She warned him that if Tommy was sent away to young offenders, she would never forgive Phil for telling Tommy to fight back.<\/p>\n<p>Ben recently reminisced about this traumatic time in his life, as he tried to stop Tommy from following in the same footsteps.<\/p>\n<p>Will Tommy learn from his mistake and stay on the right path thanks to Kat\u2019s interference, or is he set to become a chip off the old Mitchell block due to Phil\u2019s irresponsible lessons?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit our dedicated\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/news\/soaps\/eastenders\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\">EastEnders\u00a0<\/a>page for all the latest news, interviews and spoilers.\u00a0<\/strong><strong>If you\u2019re looking for more to watch check out our\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\">TV guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;editor-content\" mb-lg=\"\" hidden-print=\"\" js-piano-locked-content=\"\">\n<p><strong>The latest issue of Radio Times is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" data-auth=\"&quot;NotApplicable&quot;\" data-linkindex=\"&quot;0&quot;\">subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0to get each issue delivered to your door.
