Danny Dyer reveals there are some EastEnders co-stars he WON'T miss
Danny Dyer spoke out on how he won't miss all of his former EastEnders co-stars.
Former EastEnders star Danny Dyer has revealed that he won't miss some of his soap castmates following his explosive Christmas exit.
Danny bid an emotional farewell to EastEnders on Christmas Day after his character Mick Carter was involved in a tragic drowning accident and is now presumed dead.
The devastating incident happened after Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) crashed her car off a cliff with Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) inside.
Mick jumped in to save a pregnant Janine but was unaware that Linda had managed to swim to safety and went back into the sea to rescue the love of his life.
As he searched for her in the water, he disappeared and has been lost at sea, with only his wallet been found since.
While filming this week's The Jonathan Ross show which is set to air on Saturday, February 25 at 9.40 pm on ITV and ITVX, Danny discussed his time on the soap and also spoke about how he won't miss some familiar faces from the Square.
Jonathan asked Danny: “Who will you miss the least?”
