EastEnders fans stunned by Sam Mitchell’s youthful appearance as she makes bombshell return

EASTENDERS fans are stunned by Sam Mitchell's youthful appearance after she made a shock return in last night’s episode.

The businesswoman - who is played by actress Kim Medcalfe in the BBC soap - made her comeback to Walford for the first time in six years.

And it looked like she had barely aged a day.

She was drafted in by brother Phil to sort out the family business.

After tricking Keeble into giving him his breakfast, Phil continued to buy time.

Eventually he gave up the game and told Keeble she’d never get anything from him - and that he had to be back in prison to receive a visitor.

Later in the visiting room all eyes went to Sam as she strutted over to Phil.

Wearing a minidress Phil couldn’t help but laugh.

He told his sister: “Mum would’ve dragged you back in the house for wearing that.”

Sam replied: “Never mind that you’re getting done for murder, I’d still be the one in trouble, wouldn’t I?”

“It’s good to see you Sam,” smiled Phil.

“Yeah it’s good to be back,” she said in return.

And while it was only a brief scene, EastEnders fans couldn't get over how youthful she looked.

One wrote: "Kim Metcalf has not aged a DAY. The best Sam Mitchell has returned."

A second said: "Sam Mitchell. She took the potion. # EastEnders Youthful Queen."

Another added: "OMG Sam is back ! She looks absolutely TANTALISING How has she aged this well?"
