The Mitchells are one of most iconic families in EastEnders history, and have been a dominating force on the show since the early 1990s.
They were first introduced in February 1990, when brothers Phil (Steve McFadden) and Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) bought the local garage – the Arches.
Their sister Sam Mitchell joined the show later in 1990 and their mother Peggy Mitchell was briefly introduced in 1991, before being reintroduced in 1994 with Barbara Windsor playing the matriarch.
Since then, The Mitchell clan have been developed significantly to include both the immediate and extended families of these characters.
