Things grow even more intense in EastEnders tonight as Mick Carter gets closer to his soon-to-be-ex-daughter-in-law, Whitney. We've seen Mick struggling recently as the weight of his money woes threaten to take down the Carters and The Vic. In tonight's episode, the family try to celebrate Sylvie's birthday but a frustrated Mick is more interested in drowning his sorrows.
The pub landlord - played by Danny Dyer - gets drunk, to avoid the looming deadline of the fine he has to pay for serving alcohol out of hours. Whitney decides to help him.
But her plan backfires when Mick turns on her for making him out to be a charity case. Crushed, Whitney reveals that she feels guilty for landing him - and the family - in the situation they're in.
Mick cracks and breaks down and the pair share yet another moment. But how close will they get this time?
Whit and Mick shared a kiss earlier this year in the aftermath of the bus crash - but would he really embark on a full-on affair with his son's estranged wife?
