Soap operas are meant to depict real life, and it would appear that none of them do it better than EastEnders. The BBC series has a new face in Danny Dyer as the landlord of the Queen Vic – and he certainly takes the role seriously. According to the Daily Star, Dyer told Jonathan Ross that he likes to slip into the old rub-a-dub for a couple of sneaky halves after filming. The nation's favourite pwopah geezer said: "Non-alcoholic beer doesn't run properly, so it's real. After a long day, I slip off to the Vic for a half or two." Seems harmless enough, although the paper reports that studio managers had to order emergency supplies after he'd drunk the barrels dry.
