Danny Dyer has been in BBC soap EastEnders for the best part of nine months now, and his character Mick Carter continues to go from strength to strength.
So it was no surprise to us when we heard that he'd won the Best Actor gong at last night's TVChoice Awards, and we've compiled a list of just 5 of the moments that prove he fully deserves the accolade.

2) The moment that his on-screen son Johnny came out as gay to him, saw a testing scene that was performed beautifully.
3) Tackling his fear of water, Mick took part in a charity swim despite almost drowning as a youngster.
