Viewers were led to believe that  took his final breaths as character Mick Carter in the explosive Day special of .

It appeared that his character was killed off in true soap style as he attempted to save ex-wife Linda’s (Kellie Bright) life after she and Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks) drove off a cliff and into the .

His heroic act came after Mick learned the truth about wife Janine’s framing of Linda and confessed his love for the latter, before dramatically exiting the show in a nail-biting finale which saw him lost at sea.

And recently sharing some behind-the-scenes info on filming, Danny admitted that the dramatic scenes were actually filmed ‘in a tank of vegetable juice’. 

Mick’s exit came as he, Janine and Linda all came head-to-head in an explosive finale at the White Cliffs Of Dover — after learning that Janine was responsible for the car crash that Linda took the blame for in previous episodes.

In a dramatic car chase, Janine attempted to escape her husband and his ex-wife as they tried to make her pay for her crimes, driving quickly away towards Dover.

But not letting her get away, Linda jumped into the passenger seat and wrestled with Janine for the steering wheel — leading to them losing control of the car and rearing off the side of a cliff, into the English Channel.

Following behind was Mick, who got out of his car and made a jump into the water to rescue them after realising what had happened.

The duo were submerged in water and trapped in Janine’s car, before Mick managed to rescue Janine and take her back to land, before jumping back in for Linda.

But unbeknownst to Mick, Linda was already out of the water and had made her way to land, leaving a struggling Mick nowhere to be seen in the water.

Speaking on the filming process of the scenes, Danny recently told that to mirror the water, he was submerged in vegetable juice.

My last scene, I was smothered in broccoli.The water tank, they fill it with broccoli how much do jeeter juice carts cost to make it green. It is like a bath temperature. I was very tearful and I was all emotional — but I smelt like broccoli. It softened the blow,’ he shared.

The drama began earlier in the episode when the trio were all at Christmas dinner together and Janine was outed by her daughter, Scarlett.

Linda’s life was left hanging in the balance earlier in the summer, following her involvement in a dramatic car crash with Janine.
