EASTENDERS fans were left in hysterics after Billy made a HUGE blunder in his search for his granddaughter Lola Pearce's mum.
In Monday's episode, the market trader continued to look for Lola's biological mother so she could attend her wedding.
He wrote an ad in the local paper and was delighted to find that someone answered the ad.
They met up for coffee and - much to the amusement of fans - chatted about Lola being a "real handful" and "a little ball of mischief."

It wasn't until she pulled out a can of pilchards that it became clear she was talking about her missing cat Lola.
