EE: Danny Mitchell

Damn! I sat on the fence! I don't usually do that!

I figured he was on the make. With being raised by his viper of a mother (who seems just as bad as Archie), it's not a surprise.

[Twirley]

What a shame - thought he was going to be decent!

'I wasn't axed,' says EastEnders star

Departing 'EastEnders' star Liam Bergin has dismissed reports that he was axed from the soap by new executive producer Bryan Kirkwood.

The actor told Inside Soap magazine: "I knew that this was the length of my contract from the beginning - there's always a possibility a contract may be extended, but with Danny [Mitchell, his character], I never understood how that could happen; the con can't go on forever. He was brought in to achieve something, and either he does or he doesn't. It's the end of the story."

Bergin said fans of the soap should be pleased with his exit storyline, which will air this summer. "I've had my final scripts for about a month, and the conclusion is satisfying for me as an actor," he said. "I think it's the ending that the audience deserves."

Not a bit sorry to see him go.

[Skylace]

Me either eefan. Good riddance.

As we say so often...they could have done so much more with his character. He could have been nice and had friends to infuse the square with some much needed younger blood...

[Skylace]

I would seriously just like one good looking guy who isn't a jerk!
