EastEnders boss on Dean and Linda rape plot: 'There will be justice'

EastEnders' executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins has promised that "there will be justice" at the end of the Linda Carter and Dean Wicks rape storyline.

Speaking to the Radio Times , the show's boss said that the conclusion of the plot will be "satisfying but shocking".

Viewers have recently seen Linda (Kellie Bright) report Dean's (Matt Di Angelo) actions to the police, but the Carter family remain divided on whose version of events to believe.

Treadwell-Collins said of the storyline: "We're not The Bill. That show was about the police solving things. I don't have main characters who are police officers.


"We have tried very hard to create police characters who are interesting and who have their own stories. And there are more police twists coming up. But that's not who my viewers are tuning in to see.


Mick supports Linda.



"They want to see Linda and Mick. They're the people they care about and not the police. So the police solving it is not satisfying for the viewer."

Last year, the executive producer confirmed that there would be no trial for Dean, describing it as the "easy and wrong way" to wrap up the story.


Earlier this week, EastEnders unveiled a chilling new trailer for its highly-anticipated 30th anniversary week, which begins on Monday, February 16.
