EastEnders’ Mick Carter breaks down in tears at Tina’s funeral after she was murdered by Gray Atkins

MICK Carter will break down in tears as he delivers the eulogy for his dead sister, Tina.

In scenes due on our screens this week, the Carters are ready to give Tina – whose body was discovered by Phil Mitchell in the Argee Bhajee after she was murdered by Gray Atkins – a proper send-off.

Eastenders’ Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) breaks down in tears at his sister Tina’s funeral

Gray murdered her in 2020 after she discovered his secret that he was abusive to his wife and eventually killed her.

In the emotional scenes, Mick (Danny Dyer) gets up to speak about his sister, but the usually unflappable publican becomes overwhelmed with emotion.

He bursts into tears and struggles to get his words out.

Even though his estranged wife Linda Linda (played by actress Kellie Bright) has shocked everyone with a return to the Square to attend Tina’s funeral, it was Janine Butcher that rushed up to console Mick.

Janine (Charlie Brooks) supports Mick as he tries to cope with Tina’s murder.

But this display of affection sends Linda into a rage in upcoming scenes of EastEnders.

Janine has been an obstacle in Linda’a marriage with The Vic landlord.

Coming up, a solemn atmosphere hangs over the Square as the Carters prepare for Tina’s funeral.

Mick gets a shock when he first spots Linda turning up at The Vic.

With their divorce proceedings underway, the former couple bicker and things only get worse when Nancy gives Linda the cold shoulder.

Linda’s old demons make a return and she drunkenly causes a scene at the crematorium as she rages about Janine to the Carters.

Sharon Watts later sees a very drunk Linda storming over to The Vic and intercepts her, inviting her back to hers.

However, she’s unable to keep Linda distracted, despite telling her she needs a game plan to fight Janine.

Linda rushes to the local pub and confronts Janine for telling her to divorce Mick.

BBC One viewers most probably remember that Janine went to see Linda during the festive period in a bid to drive a wedge between her and Mick.

Linda left Albert Square in September, 2021, after giving birth to her youngest daughter Annie and has since been rejecting Mick’s numerous attempts at fixing their marriage.

She eventually sent him divorce papers, making their breakup official.

Actress Kellie Bright was tipped to come back to EastEnders just in time for Tina’s funeral and ahead of Danny Dyer’s departure, after her maternity leave.

She gave birth to her third child, a son conceived via IVF in July, 2021.

EastEnders airs on BBC One from 7.30pm from Monday to Thursday.
