EastEnders star Danny Dyer looks relaxed and happy as he enjoys playful banter at a petrol station after return to UK following a month break from the soap
The actor - who plays Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter - seemed chilled out after he was forced to take a break from the BBC show
EASTENDERS star Danny Dyer was back to his cheeky chap self as he enjoyed some banter at a petrol station after he took a month off from the soap to "sort his life out."
The soap star, who plays Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter, returned to the UK from South Africa this week and looks to be fully relaxed and chilled out.
Danny, 39, jetted to the sun-soaked location with wife Joanne Mas in February, after The Sun's Bizarre column revealed producers were concerned his partying antics and gruelling 16-hour days filming were taking their toll.
After four weeks away from Albert Square antics sunglasses-clad Danny looked cheery as he stopped to fill up his car at a local garage.
He looked stylish in a bomber jacket, grey top and jeans as he pumped his black people carrier full of fuel.
After grabbing a bottle of water inside he shared a joke with the shop assistant, who was left in fits of giggles.
Even hardman Danny let himself enjoy a little smile as he returned to his vehicle.
Earlier this week, The Sun Online exclusively revealed Danny's return as he enjoyed a shopping trip with Joanne.

Danny has returned to the UK to chat with EastEnders producers about his comeback plot.
While on holiday in South Africa, he had been keeping a low profile over the last four weeks but he was snapped with a fan towards the end of his South African trip and was “glowing.”
In February, The Sun exclusively revealed Danny stopped filming after talks with show bosses.
Producers were especially concerned about his behaviour at the National Television Awards, where he fell off the wagon after an attempt to quit alcohol at the start of the year.
An insider on EastEnders said: “The producers are concerned about him for a number of reasons.
Danny’s departure was a major concern for Enders producers as he is central to storylines on the show, filmed about six weeks in advance.
