The EastEnders actor, 43, was forced to demolish some of his constructions to make space in his house – and was helped by his six-year-old.

However, Danny said his little boy took “great pleasure” in smashing what he built.

Speaking on The One Show, the Mick Carter star said: “Lego. I’ve been obsessed with Lego during lockdown.

“I had a sad moment because I had to smash it up the other day. Because there was no room.

“My boy – who took great pleasure in it by the way, my little Arty – smashed up my Hogwarts castle with his aeroplane. I was in tears.

“Then he attacked Big Ben, smashed up my Big Ben. I wouldn’t let him touch my retro Batman 1989 car but he did smash up Trafalgar Square as well.

“So it was carnage in my gaff, actually. Now I’ve got 20,000 pieces of Lego and I don’t know what to do with them.”

In August, Danny’s co-star Kellie Bright – who plays Linda Carter – said she bonded with her on-screen husband over Lego during lockdown.

Speaking on The One Show, she said: “He showed me his Lego! His first offering was the Hogwarts castle, no messing around.

“It did inspire me to get my own Lego, but I actually did it with my eight-year-old – a joint effort.”

Kellie is mother to kids Freddie, eight, and Gene, three.

Danny is set to become a grandfather for the first time as his eldest Dani is pregnant.

The Love Island star – who will give birth to her first child with Sammy Kimmence in 2021 – will be hosting an agony aunt podcast with her dad.
