Barney Mitchell EastEnders Teddy Mitchell Share By Joel Harley Jun 27 2024 By Joel Harley Jun 27 2024 Fans of EastEnders have complained about the arrival of three (!) new Mitchells in this week’s episodes. With Stevie in hospital, son Teddy rushed to his bedside – with his own sons, Barney and Harry, in tow. The trio quickly set about making their presence known in Walford – with Teddy determined to get to the bottom of his dad’s injuries.
