Enders’ Swash buckled by sack
EASTENDERS hunk Joe Swash has been sensationally axed from the soap.
Producers told the Albert Square star, 26, they had run out of storylines for his character Mickey Miller during a bombshell meeting.
His on-screen stepdad, layabout Keith Miller, played by David Spinx, 57, has also been ditched.
A pal of Joe’s revealed last night: “He and David were told their characters had run out of steam by EastEnders boss Diederick Santer.
“Joe was stunned at first. He’s loved playing Mickey and felt the fans still enjoyed watching his antics
“But he soon realised if the stories weren’t there, he didn’t want to be just going through the motions.
“He’s now thinking over his next move carefully.
"He doesn’t want to become just another former soap star.”
Cheeky chappie Joe joined the BBC1 soap in 2003 and was an instant hit.
His sacking will shock fans and is a second blow this year for the popular Londoner – dubbed The Swashbuckler by The Sun and once named our Bizarre ********er of the Year.
Last month he split with lover Emma Sophocleous, the mother of his eight-month-old son Harry.
They had got back together after separating in 2005 and all seemed well after Harry’s birth until Emma quit their new home.
