The EastEnders exit
Danny Dyer spoke about the reason for his EastEnders exit. Speaking to The Times, he stated:
One reason I left EastEnders was because I wasn’t around enough. You’ve got to try and get in there early with your holiday, because otherwise they give you a holiday in February, and who wants to go on holiday in February?
He also stated he had creative differences with the showrunners as he wanted to pursue a mental health storyline with his character that involves sexual assault but the show bosses decided against this due to the potential triggering of viewers.

However, Cheat only aired for one season before Netflix pulled the plug.
