Danny Dyer makes up for activity EastEnders banned him from doing as the soap star turns to comedy for latest role
DANNY DYER was unable to swear on EastEnders, but he has more than made up for it since leaving Albert Square.
In his new Sky Max comedy Mr Bigstuff, he turns the air blue every two minutes.
The cockney actor, who plays rogue Lee Campbell, drops an expletive 79 times over six episodes, including an impressive 63 F-bombs.
And just in case you’re wondering, the remainder of his swear haul also included six C-words, three sts and three b***ks.
Thankfully for younger viewers, he did manage to squeeze in a few less X-rated putdowns, namely calling people a “prawn”.
Danny also got to show off his dance skills alongside co-star and series creator Ryan Sampson when the pair play the spoons to M People hit Moving On Up.
Beats moping about in the Queen Vic, I guess.

IT’S A NEW CHAPTER FOR PAUL
DOCTOR Who star Paul McGann has joined the stellar line-up for new Alibi drama, Bookish.
The crime drama, set in the 1940s, follows Mark Gatiss as antique bookshop owner Gabriel, who helps the police solve crimes through his knowledge of novels.
He is aided in this by a host of lovable and damaged misfits along with his wife Trottie (Polly Walker), who conceals her husband’s sexuality in a time when it was illegal to be gay.
Paul will appear alongside One Day’s Tim McInnerny, Fifteen-Love’s Elizabeth Berrington and Hotel Portofino’s Mark Umbers in two episodes.
The six-part series will air on UKTV channel Alibi in 2025.
SHE’S IN HIGH F-ASHION
ASHLEY PARK has proven she still knows what’s what with fashion, even off the set of Emily In Paris.
The actress, who plays Mindy Chen the best friend of Lily Collins’ Emily in the Netflix series, posed in a set of high-fashion outfits for Harper’s Bizarre mag.
And she reckons she has plenty in common with her character.
She said: “I think our styles have converged as Mindy has become more of a woman.”
She also spoke about being cast in Only Murders In The Building alongside Selena Gomez and being part of her first all-Asian American ensemble in Prime Video’s Joy Ride last year
She added: “When I was first doing this stuff, I felt a bit of a fraud – like I had to punk everyone into thinking I belong, whereas now I feel what a privilege that I get to show myself as I am.
“To be creatively led and surrounded by other leads who were all Asian was just the best experience.”
Yesterday, Netflix announced Rupert Everett was joining Emily In Paris as an interior designer and socialite when series four lands in two parts, the first on August 15.
RINDER RESCINDS RY JOKE
RYLAN CLARK has already said he would not want to marry best pal Rob Rinder.
And luckily the TV barrister, who joined him for their BBC Two show Rob And Rylan’s Grand Tour, feels the same.
Ahead of his new series Britain Behind Bars: A Secret History, Rob said: “It was my fault that me and Rylan were romantically linked.
As a joke, I posted: ‘I’ve just got engaged’.
In our TV Mag, free with the paper tomorrow, he added: “ I love Rylan and stand by what he said: ‘We have a marriage, we row all the time and we don’t have sex’.
“We adore each other. The last thing you want to do is ruin that by getting married.”
Britain Behind Bars starts at 9pm on Sunday on Channel 4.
