EastEnders fans ‘work out’ Albert Square villain to receive ‘redemption’ amid Harry Mitchell twist
EastEnders fans are saying that they’ve ‘worked out’ that an Albert Square villain is to receive ‘redemption’ amid another Harry Mitchell twist.
The son of Nicola and Teddy Mitchell has been held in captivity for two weeks, after getting on the wrong side of Ravi Gulati and his henchman Okie.
Looking to get his close friend Kojo Asare out of trouble, Harry set up secret cameras where they were shipping the drugs from in order to bring them down.
Quickly caught, Harry, played by Elijah Holloway, was kidnapped and has turned to drugs in an effort to escape his current reality.
With Harry out of action, Okie has been trying to win the heart of Gina Knight, lying to Harry last week by claiming that they were romantically involved.
Earlier in the week, Teddy shared his worries with Billy Mitchell about his son as Okie insisted Harry call Kojo to return to the handlers.
In scenes aired on Wednesday night (October 22), Teddy told Billy he was going off to Cardiff to try and find Harry, not knowing he’s still in Walford.
George Knight’s brother Kojo soon made his way to the flat, where Harry was still feeling the effects of the drugs he took.
Trying to reassure Kojo, Okie offered him some drugs, only for Kojo to secretly spit it out as he appears to be getting ready to prepare a mission to save his friend.
One person who is unaware that Harry is still being held captive is Ravi , who went on a holiday with his family after learning Joel Marshall shared explicit photos of his daughter Avani Nandra-Hart around.
Ravi has been at odds in recent months over what he wants from life, trying to make things work with Priya Nandra-Hart in spite of his secret dodgy dealings.
Many EastEnders fans are predicting that Ravi will turn a corner and help Harry. However, not all of them are convinced this is a good direction for the story.
@loverofthings25 said on Reddit: “Okie is awful yes but Ravi is complicit in everything that has happened to Kojo and Ravi. He needs to be punished somehow, he shouldn’t be able to just hand over operations to Okie and act like nothing is happened, there should be consequences.” @NewCarob9279 added: “Exactly… it’s too late, Ravi should be getting his karma.”
@Its_ya_girl_abs_ wrote: “And I bet it’ll be a thing like Harry hates Ravi avoids him at all costs or tries to get revenge then in a years time they’ll forget they hate each other and get on as usual and that everything is normal again. Like Sharon forgiving Ian after trying to kill him.”
@gilestowler commented: “I think his ‘redemption arc’ will be that the dealers – Okie and the people above him – become more of a threat and he has to take them down, seeing what he’s helped to create. I think he’ll also lose Priya and his kids along the way. I think that’s the closest we’ll get to consequences.”
