Danny Dyer turns drag queen when he dons a wig to impersonate Posh Spice in EastEnders.

Mick camps it up in a black bobbed wig as Posh, sister Tina (Luisa Bradshaw-White) is Ginger Spice, and kids Johnny, Nancy and Lee take on the roles of Baby, Sporty and Scary.

Linda, played by Kellie Bright, and EastEnders viewers can enjoy the sight when it screens on EastEnders on Tuesday, July 8.
