EASTENDERS’ Danny Dyer had a long-running feud with Steve McFadden — sparked by a row over the Queen Vic.
Danny, 45, quit as landlord Mick Carter at Christmas and tonight hinted on ITV’s Jonathan Ross Show that he would not miss some cast.
Asked who, Danny said: “There’s a few. I ain’t going to lie. I won’t say who. Most I love dearly. Not all…”
A TV source told The Sun on Sunday that Steve, 63, who plays Phil Mitchell, disliked Danny as soon as he joined in 2013.
The source said: “It was an open secret on set. They rarely worked together.”
Another source said: “Steve hated that bosses gave Mick the Queen Vic, which spent so many years being at the heart of the Mitchell family.
“It meant Danny would have maximum screentime.
“Danny coming in was a big fanfare, and everyone loved him, but Steve didn’t like him.
“Danny tried to win him over but Steve wasn’t having it. In the end Danny got sick of him.”
In 2017 Danny reportedly told pals he wanted to punch Steve.
Fans saw Mick bow out when he was lost at sea at Christmas.
Steve didn’t attend Danny’s leaving party.
EastEnders were asked to comment on the feud.
