EastEnders Boxing Day spoilers: Janine panics and Linda distraught
Charlie Brooks is due to bow out of EastEnders during the Boxing Day episode.
The aftermath of Mick Carter's exit airs on Boxing Day in EastEnders.
The Christmas Day episode on Sunday (25th December 2022) saw Mick (Danny Dyer) finally discover the truth about the evil schemes of his pregnant wife Janine Carter (Charlie Brooks) and end their marriage to reunite with his true love, ex-wife Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
However, when Janine tried to flee the country to escape justice, Mick and Linda followed in hot pursuit and a series of confrontations culminated in Linda and Janine plunging over a clifftop in a car into the sea below.
Mick jumped in to save them and, with Linda's encouragement, rescued pregnant Janine first before turning back to save Linda.

The scenes marked Danny Dyer bowing out from his role as Mick Carter after nine years in the role.

Janine appears irate and her brother Ricky Butcher (Sid Owen) is there with her at Sonia Fowler's house.
The episode teases that Ricky will have a difficult choice to make. Will he be forced to help his scheming sister?
