Eastenders confirm Roger Griffiths will be back on the soap as Karen Taylor’s lying ex boyfriend Mitch Baker makes a surprise return to the Square
He had been warned to stay away but Mitch is back for the third time and ready to wreak havoc
EASTENDERS’ star Roger Griffiths will be reprising his role as Mitch Baker, the lying ex-boyfriend of Karen Taylor and estranged father of Keegan for the third time.
Viewers first met the conman back in March when he arrived to a hostile welcome from the Taylor clan.
After managing to charm his way back into Karen’s heart and strike up a bond with Keegan, he showed his true colours when he fled the Square with a wad of cash meant for Mr Murray.
Charming yet deceitful, Mitch quickly returned to try and make amends with Karen and Keegan but Karen saw through his efforts and after learning he had a wife, warned him to stay out of her family’s life.
As Mitch makes his return, it soon becomes clear he's on a mission to win the Taylors round but what does he have up his sleeve and how will they react to his sudden reappearance?
Speaking about his returned Roger said: “It feels great to be returning to Albert Square and working with the wonderful cast and crew again, especially the fantastic Taylor family.
