EastEnders fans shocked by Danny Dyer's incredible trouser bulge

EastEnders viewers really didn’t know quite where to look during last night’s episode.

The BBC soap’s gritty storylines suddenly seemed less than gripping when the nation clapped its eyes on Albert Square’s real talking point – an improbably mahoosive bulge in Danny Dyer’s trousers.

Ooer!

Danny’s character Mick Carter was getting ready to star in the annual Walford panto – and struggled to squeeze into a pair of extremely ill-fitting trousers. Safe to say, soap fans were more than a little entranced by Danny’s surprise Christmas package.

“@MrDDyer #eastenders unbelievable, Danny with that bulge. Any chance he gets to show it off! ???? ???? I’m not complaining.x ” cooed one enraptured viewer.

“Just had to rewind #eastenders to take a good look at Danny Dyer’s bulge after that scene. Definitely a pair of socks down there! ” added another.

The farcical scenes on the soap rumbled on, with Mick struggling to contain the contents of his trousers. Later at the event, he was forced to ask Kathy Beale to come to the rescue as he hid behind some of the scenery.

Mick quipped: “If they go down – we’re in a bit of a rick with personnel down to my johnnies to be fair.”

Kathy had finished sewing up his trousers and told him to try them – but Mick kept his hands firmly covering him.

Ben Mitchell’s mum gave him an exasperated look: “Oh, Mick, I’ve had two sons and three husbands, I’ve seen it all before.”

So have we now, Kathy.
