Grant Mitchell appeared on tonight’s Eastenders and Twitter went into meltdown

The Mitchells reunited..almost.

Eastenders fans have been excited about Grant Mitchell's return to the show for a while now and tonight, he finally made an appearance. It was only on the phone as he listened to a message from Sharon (ex-flame, we predict fireworks) but he's set to rock up in Albert Square next week. We couldn't have predicted the Twitter reaction to seeing Grant, played by Ross Kemp, back on screens. Here's what people had to say:

IIIII CANNNI WAIT FOR FLOOMING MONDAY NIGHT WHEN GRANT MITCHELL IS BACK ON MY SCREEN
