Viewers Outraged Over Return of Controversial Villain
EastEnders fans have taken to social media to demand that a character is axed from the show following a controversial storyline. The character in question is Dean Wicks, who made his return to Walford after seven years.
Character's Dark Past
Dean Wicks, played by Matt Di Angelo, is a character who has a dark past. He was responsible for raping Linda Carter, a storyline that shocked viewers. He also attempted to do the same to the late Roxy Mitchell.
Residents Express Their Disgust
As Dean reappeared in the Square, residents wasted no time in expressing their disgust. They believe that his character should be axed from the show due to his past actions.
Complicated Relationships
Despite his past, Dean has become a silent partner in Ian and Cindy Beale's new business. He is also trying to support his sick daughter. This has created complicated relationships within the show.
Dramatic Confrontation
In a recent episode, Linda Carter, who was raped by Dean, decided to warn residents about him. She handed out posters stating that he is a sex offender. However, Dean threatened to sue her for libel, forcing Linda to halt her plans.
Dean was then urged by Ian and Cindy to try and reconcile with Linda and her family for the sake of their business. But when he tried to speak to Linda one-on-one, things took a dramatic turn.
Furious Fans Demand Axing of Character
Following the confrontation, Dean forced Linda to grovel to him to avoid getting the police involved. This has left EastEnders fans furious and demanding that Dean be axed from the show.
Viewers took to social media to express their outrage. Many found the episode repulsive and unnecessary. They believe that Dean's return is only serving to victimize Linda further.
What's Next for Dean?
It remains to be seen what will happen to Dean's character in the future. EastEnders airs on BBC One and iPlayer, so fans will have to tune in to find out if their demands for Dean's axing will be met.
