EastEnders spoilers: The Carter's tragic fate revealed which will leave you heartbroken
MICK CARTER’S time is almost up, as the payment deadline to save the Queen Vic is edging closer in EastEnders.
The New Year’s Day Heist brought a lot of EastEnders characters to their knees, but Mick Carter (played by Danny Dyer) is getting more and more desperate by the second.
Last year Mick hired Fi Browning (Lisa Faulkner) to help bring in more customers and profit, however the deadline is fast approaching.
Lying to his family about the severity of the debts and loans, Mick has kept his personal panic quiet.
Following Ben Mitchell’s (Harry Reid) exit last week, Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) has teamed up with returning character Mel Owen (Tamzin Outhwaite) to find the missing heist money.

With gangster Aidan Maguire (Patrick Bergin) becoming more angry over his missing money, the pressure is on from all sides for Phil and Tamzin to find the cash.
Next week, as Mick’s desperation grows and time runs out, Phil and Mel assume that he is the perfect suspect for stealing the money.
Eventually coming clean to Callum ‘Halfway’ Highway (Tony Clay), Mick admits that he has severely downplayed the situation with Fi, and that he doesn’t know what to do.
