Mitch needs someone to talk to and luckily Mick is there for him
Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) provides a shoulder to cry on for an emotional Mitch Baker (Roger Griffiths) in tonight’s EastEnders.
Mitch has been struggling to cope since finding Dinah dead after she tragically took her own life in harrowing scenes recently.
