Danny Dyer and Kellie Bright are planning to sneak their Inside Soap Award into an ‘EastEnders’ scene.
The pair – who play Queen Vic landlord and landlady Mick and Linda Carter in the BBC One soap – recently scooped the Best Partnership prize at the ceremony, and they are hoping the accolade will make an appearance in a future episode.
She said: "We’re genuinely chuffed – it’s so exciting. Who knows, the award could just end up making a little cameo appearance behind the Queen Vic bar.
"It might do…"
However, the pair have only just got the gong back after Kellie forgot to take it home from the ceremony because she was "battered".
Danny wrote on Twitter: "We’d like to show you the award in our hands, but unfortunately she’s forgot it.
"She was… how can I put it, she was battered last night. She was celebrating."
But fortunately, the ‘EastEnders’ stars have now been reunited with the accolade, and Danny admitted they are particularly delighted with the prize because it is a good reflection on their partnership.
He added to Inside Soap magazine: "We have a special bond, me and Kellie.
"We came into the show together, and have been here since day one – so this is something I cherish, especially because the two of us have never been acknowledged for our characters’ partnership in this way before.
"We’ve worked really hard together, so we’re happy to have won."
Danny previously thanked the soap’s fans after winning the prize.
He said: "You’re so lovely all of you and we never take it for granted."
