EastEnders actor Danny Hatchard has received an apology from former co-star Michael Greco after a public disagreement over a drunken scene

Hatchard, who returned as Lee Carter, criticised Greco for judging a brief social-media clip showing Lee struggling with alcoholism

He said actors should support one another rather than chase attention online

Greco, known for playing Beppe di Marco, admitted his remark was unnecessary and acknowledged he had not watched the episode or understood the wider storyline

Hatchard was also backed by Shona McGarty, who praised his performance and welcomed his return to Walford.
