EastEnders fans watched as Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) frantically tried to save Dennis Rickman (Bleu Landau) from the sinking ship last week, but to no avail. After realising Denny hadn’t escaped alive, Ian has been guilt ridden ever since.
Yes he locked him in the locker room, but as tragedy struck, he did everything he could to rescue the person behind the online bullying of his son Bobby Beale (Clay Milner Russell).
