Danny Dyer lashes out at EastEnders

On Friday night (May 9), Danny was at a charity night hosted at Wimbledon Football Club in South West London.

It was during this event that Danny hit out at the hit BBC soap, which he joined back in 2013.

Danny was on the show for nine years, playing Mick Carter, the landlord of the Queen Vic. Mick’s turbulent time on the soap came to an end on Christmas Day in 2022, when he seemingly drowned in the sea.

However, Danny doesn’t seem impressed by some of the soap’s storylines, branding the scripts “[bleep]”, The Sun has reported.

He also confessed he had to go to rehab twice during his time on the show.
