Spoiler warning for the EastEnders episode released on BBC iPlayer at 6am on Thursday 11th April 2024.

Fans of EastEnders will be pleased with today’s episode (11th April 2024) as Dean Wicks (played by Matt Di Angelo) finally got his just deserts.

Earlier in the storyline, fans saw The Six scramble to hide the meat thermometer that killed Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) on Christmas Day.

They decided to plant it on evil Dean, something that viewers were particularly delighted to see.

In today’s episode, Linda enacted the next stage of the plan, which included going to the police station to tell them that she “saw” Dean dragging something heavy into the cafe.

Dean was later hauled into the police station for questioning and was initially quite confident that they had nothing on him.

That all changed when a search of his flat uncovered the murder weapon…

With Dean’s future not looking good now, will he be leaving EastEnders?

Is Dean Wicks leaving EastEnders?

So far, there’s no official confirmation he’s leaving or staying either way, but he has some unfinished business.

EastEnders spoilers for next week show his daughter, Jade (Elizabeth Green), in turmoil over hearing about her dad’s potential crimes.

There’s surely a necessary showdown to come with Jade and Dean, but it’s currently unconfirmed.

Furthermore, RadioTimes.com would be very surprised if there wasn’t an explosive trial to come – especially if Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) is testifying against him.
