EastEnders landlady Linda Carter will make a brave move later this month when she decides to report Dean Wicks to the police.

Linda (Kellie Bright) and Mick (Danny Dyer) are currently taking a break away from the Square following the dramatic events over Christmas, but upon returning, Linda decides that she can no longer keep silent over her rape ordeal.

After making the decision to report Dean for rape, Linda is determined that the family will spend the day together for Mick's birthday before going to the police.

Unfortunately, Nancy and Lee are not in the mood for celebrating as they grow increasingly frustrated at their parents' silence about what has been going on.

To make matters worse, Linda later experiences her biggest fear when Shirley tells her that she doesn't believe her accusations against Dean.

Determined to prove that she is telling the truth, Linda describes her ordeal to Shirley. Shirley leaves after listening, but viewers will be left to wonder whether she now believes Linda or Dean.

When Mick returns, Linda tells Mick she can't keep silent anymore and the couple head to the police station.

With Mick by her side, a nervous Linda report Dean's crime to the police. When the time comes for Linda to make her video statement alone, she finds the strength to go ahead as Mick promises to wait for her.
