EastEnders star Danny Dyer has addressed the fate of Mick Carter after
almost two years of speculation from fans.
Mick, as viewers of the BBC One soap will recall, vanished at sea over the
Christmas period in 2022 when trying to rescue one true love Linda Carter
(Kellie Bright) from the treacherous waves after pregnant Janine Butcher
(Charlie Brooks) drove them into the water.
The Queen Vic landlord, under Linda’s instruction, saved Janine and their unborn child first before returning to the ocean to retrieve his L, unaware of the fact that she had safely made it to shore.
A body was never recovered, with fans hoping that such a thing leaves the door open for a potential return for Mick one day, much in the vein of Neighbours legend Harold Bishop, who famously vanished at sea in 1991 only to return to the Aussie soap five years later.
