Poor storyseeker1 will be more confused about Winston's identity than ever! :rotfl:
He's a minor character who's worked on the market for years (played by extra Ulric Browne):

GI was assuming storyseeker1's comment was a joke. Everyone knows who Winston is. The second longest serving character in Eastenders.Quote:

Waiting to be shocked!!

It has been reported that Mick Carter will be involved in a large water-based stunt at New Year's on EastEnders.
Showrunner Dominic Treadwell-Collins teased that a "big resolution" is happening in the episode.
"There's a big resolution coming up in the New Year. Danny's been fitted for a wetsuit, he's going into some water, that's all I can say," Treadwell-Collins told the Radio Times TV Festival.
The show's executive producer admitted that the stunt will focus around the rape storyline involving Linda Carter.
Meanwhile, Treadwell-Collins also told the festival that one should "never say never" to a return for Grant Mitchell.
"I think the fact that you've got Phil, Kathy, Sharon – there's a person missing, isn't there?" he said, although he admitted there were no plans as of yet for him to return.
"Actually, to get all four on screen at the same time is a dream. As an EastEnders fan, you want to watch that. I want to watch that," he added.

It would be Great if Grant returned - even for
a few episodes (imo) -not too hopeful tho!

just hope before dean is chucked off a bridge he confesses the rape could be to roxy or shirley
Here's another article about the watery stunt involving Mick in the New Year.
I think my fellow Soapboarders will be very pleased to read Danny Dyer's comments about Dean. He hates him as much as we do! :thumbsup:
He also confirms Dean's "going to get it", though he won't die. Presumably it'll happen on New Year's Day! :clap:

We need to see.the episode first but I hope
I hope " the not killing" doesnt turn into
"give him.a bit of a bashing" then he can be
brought back( redeemed) after a while!*
But hopefully the start of this very unpleasant
storyline being fully resolved!
dupl
Yes, as well as being punished Dean needs to admit his guilt (preferably in front of Shirley) so that Linda will be vindicated. Remorse would be a bonus, although I'm not sure it'd be realistic after all this time of not of glimmer of it.Quote:

That's what I was thinking. Maybe leading up to the stunt, Dean accidentally lets something slip that reveals his guilt, or perhaps when his abuse of Roxy (which I assume is going to escalate) is discovered, Shirley etc will realise Linda wasn't lying. As long as she's vindicated somehow.Quote:

I haven't read any clues about what leads up to the stunt yet. I presume everything comes to a head in some as yet unknown way.Quote:

Dean has to either acknowledge that he raped Linda or it has to be proved in some other way. Linda has to be vindicated in front of everyone and shown to have been telling the truth all along otherwise there will still be no closure on this.
And the only way he can stay is if he repents and is forgiven.
Butit may be he is too far gone for saving.
It would be typical eastenders for parent to gain and then lose a child if dean is banished forever.

Too far gone in my opinion, especially with the way he's treating Roxy now. We've seen no private remorse for the rape or any evidence he knows the way he treats women in general is wrong.Quote:

Yes, I agree with that.Quote:

him?!!
It wouldnt -for all reasons stated many
times by posters ( mainly connected to
Linda and acknowledgement of her
telling truth).
Also Mick can swim now-per Dazzles post)!!
It goes against what Danny Dyer said in the
interview and tho some actors do use these
occasions to big themselves up-I felt he was
sincere!
I think it only struck me - because storylines
are becoming more unbelievable almost
on a daily basis.** Im sure though they think
viewers will believe nearly any thing-
but wouldnt go that far!!
**in all soaps?

I hope the PTB wouldn't think Dean rescuing Mick would redeem him for the rape, but, as you say, with stories becoming ever more unbelievable it's hard not to question the judgement of some producers (naming no names).Quote:

Perhaps then he could return in a few years' time a changed man. Some such men even go on to being counsellors themselves and help rehabilitate other sex offenders - which I think could be interesting route to take his character.
However, I can't really see anything like this being possible given he apparently feels no guilt over the rape.
Mick and Shirley Carter find themselves in a difficult position on EastEnders later this month after an incident with Carmel Kazemi's cat threatens to expose their secret.
The pair have recently started rebuilding their fractured relationship, but Mick (Danny Dyer) has been keen to stop his struggling partner Linda from finding out.
Upcoming scenes will see Mick make plans to meet a delighted Shirley (Linda Henry) with his baby son Ollie, but he is forced to cancel on her at the last minute.
Frustrated, Shirley tells Mick that she is fed up with having to hide their growing bond. However, when they meet up later in the park, an unexpected situation threatens to expose their secret for them.
When Carmel's cat - named Craig Revel Horwood - gets stuck up a tree, Shirley is forced to climb up to help him as Carmel is afraid of heights.

Following the drama, Mick later has a heart-to-heart with Shirley and explains why he wants to keep things quiet for now, but he eventually promises to tell Linda.
When Mick returns to The Vic, it's not long before Linda's mum Elaine cottons on to what he's been up to after Carmel thanks him for his earlier help.
Livid, Elaine demands an explanation from Mick, but what will he say? And how will Linda react if she finds out as well?
EastEnders airs these scenes on Tuesday, November 10 at 7.30pm on BBC One.

When did Mick invite Buster and Shirley to his wedding, he really should have discussed that with Linda :angry:
Danny Dyer was in Plebs last night on ITV. It was quite funny. :)
I don't know - he's clearly determined to have his mum and dad at his wedding.

Poor Linda can't even count on Mick to be on her side any more. It doesn't make sense after he supported her so staunchly for all those months - especially given she confided in him on Halloween about how strongly the rape still affects her. :angry:Quote:
