Danny Dyer hints that he could leave EastEnders
Say it ain't so!
Danny Dyer has hinted that he doesn't yet know if he'll be carrying on as Mick Carter in EastEnders.
His contract with the BBC soap runs out in October and it was reported in December that he was apparently set for a new contract as the lovable Queen Vic landlord.
But it might not be as simple as that.
"We'll have to see then [at the end of the contract]. Four years is a long time. It's been really rewarding but there's other stuff out there. I'd love to show other sides to me. I loved theatre and all that," he told The Sun on Sunday.
He added that no formal discussions had taken place about his Walford future.
Outside of Albert Square, Dyer has starred in movies including The Football Factory and Human Traffic, as well as two Harold Pinter plays, Celebration and No Man's Land.
Dyer had previously spoken of his desire to have a lengthy stay on EastEnders. "I'm here for a 20-stretch. I want to do an Ian Beale. As long as they want to keep me, I'll stay," he explained in 2014.
Come on BBC bosses, you know it makes sense.
Last week's bus disaster ended in a potential bombshell for the Carters as Max Branning's shock revenge plan was finally revealed - and it could lead to them losing the Queen Vic.
Only days earlier, the EastEnders cast had told us that the pub's future would be a big talking point this year.
"There's a few problems going on at The Vic. I think it's going to be one of the running topics of the year - what's going to happen with the Queen Vic," teased Ted Reilly, who plays Johnny Carter.
Luisa Bradshaw-White, who plays Tina Carter, added: "I think there is a danger - I think there is! It's a scary time."
And we haven't even mentioned Mick's shock kiss with his daughter-in-law Whitney Dean in Thursday's (January 26) episode...

Danny, who plays Mick Carter on the BBC1 soap, is taking a break after worrying drunk behaviour at the National Television Awards
Oh dear, I hope Danny manages to sort himself out. That Sun article is dreadful! It's full of what are obviously the worst pictures they could find of a bleary-eyed Danny with a fag is in his mouth and beer in his hand (but then it's The Sun so I really shouldn't be surprised at the low standard of "journalism" involved :thumbsdow).
The onscreen disruption is going to be massive so I expect to see numerous ill thought out filler storylines that had to be written at the last minute to cover Danny's scenes.
