Icon will join Jonathan on the ITV1 chatshow.

EastEnders legend Danny Dyer will guest on The Jonathan Ross Show this Saturday, 22 February.

The actor, who played Mick Carter in the BBC series between 2013 and 2022 will join Jonathan at the end of the soap’s 40th anniversary week. Danny, who wasn’t involved in any of the soaps celebratory programming, previously said his gloomy plotlines “drained him” and he also criticised producers over his exit storyline.

Danny will join Jonathan not to discuss EastEnders but to talk about his brand new film, ‘Marching Powder’. Directed by Nick Love, it’s a film about a guy who attempts to turn his life around after he’s arrested over drugs.

Earlier this week, Danny announced another new project – an entertainment series which will see him team up with daughter Dani Dyer for Sky TV. With childhood nostalgia in his heart and business ambition in his sights, Danny and Dani are diving headfirst into the £7 billion holiday park industry. They’ll stop at nothing in their quest to transform a caravan park into a place that lives up to Danny’s misty-eyed memories of the best holidays he’s ever had in his life.

But this venture is no knees-up at the Queen Vic. Danny will soon discover that running the park is a world away from the life of an A-list actor as he faces everything from dodgy plumbing to demanding punters, rogue acts to reinvigorating the restaurant menu. But will his new business partners, the park’s residents or even Dani be on board with his grand, nostalgic vision?

Dani Dyer commented: “My dad wants to get involved in the caravan park and I’m all in: I love a caravan, so why not? My dad is a very friendly person – he’s good at bringing everyone in – but has he got what it takes to make a success of this? I think he has, just so long as people don’t decide to go to Magaluf.”

Joining Danny on The Jonathan Ross Show this week, restauranteur Gordon Ramsay, Vanessa Williams, Sports star Keely Hodgkinson and star of Babygirl Harris Dickinson. There’s live music from singer-songwriter Joan Armatrading
