Danny Dyer says Dean Wicks will "get what’s coming to him" when Mick Carter finds out about Linda’s rape.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor plays the Queen Vic landlord on the soap, and he has discussed the show’s ongoing storyline which sees the aftermath of his character’s wife – played by Kellie Bright – being attacked by Dean (Matt Di Angelo).
He told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: "Let me tell you something now, it’s explosive.
"You are going to see a side of Mick that’s going to freak you all out. I can’t say too much but Dean gets what’s coming to him.
"Matt’s a lovely boy and it’s a tricky thing to deal with. It’s a subject that needs to be dealt with in the right way. The way we’ve done it is really delicate."
The TV hard man explained the soap wants to "encourage" people who have been through similar experiences to open up about it and not "bottle it up".
He added: "We’re trying to encourage anyone going through that kind of thing to talk about it and tell the people you love. It’s important not to bottle it up and deal with it yourself.
"It has been difficult because obviously I know the storyline but Mick doesn’t know.
"All I will say is when he does find out, you’re not going to want to miss it."
