EastEnders fans furious as Boxing Day episode 'leaks early' | The Sun

EASTENDERS fans have been left furious as the Boxing Day episode 'leaks early' online.

Fans of the soap saw Danny Dyer's final scenes air last night as Mick Carter is presumed dead.

The dramatic episode ended with his ex-wife Linda Carter breaking down in tears as Mick failed to come back to shore.

Tonight's special Boxing Day episode will air the fallout as Albert Square learns of the news.

But fans have been left furious after the BBC released the episode hours earlier than planned.

It's now available to stream on the iPlayer, with the episode airing on BBC One at 7:30pm this evening.

Viewers have branded the Beeb as 'dumb' to post the episode early – especially as Janine's final scenes are set to broadcast tonight.

"It’s stupid to release the episodes early when they are in their own time slot," said one fan.

Another blasted: "Tomorrow is her last episode (another reason why it’s a dumb idea to release the episode early)."

A third said: "Just an absolute dumb decision by the BBC."

"Sad that people can’t wait 22 hours or whatever it is. And 8 of those will be spent in bed," said a fourth.

Walford residents wake up confused by the news that the Queen Vic will not be opening.

Soon enough, news about recent events will spread like wildfire.

Linda Carter will also have to learn to live without Mick's presence in the Square.

"I'm staying for the foreseeable future", actress Kellie Bright recently said.

"I'm still having a great time there and I've always said I've loved it and I feel quite excited about what the future might bring for Linda."

EastEnders airs on BBC One and iPlayer.
