Channel 5 releases trailer for Danny Dyer’s first role after EastEnders in Heat

Neighbours fans will recognise the stars in this drama!

Channel 5 has released the trailer and first look at Danny Dyer in his first role after EastEnders in new drama Heat.

Danny Dyer left the role of Mick Carter after nine years on the soap, and his next role takes him to Australia.

Heat follows two families who are long-time friends, who venture to a secluded home in the Australian outback for a summer holiday.

As secrets and lies unravel, so do sparks of fire, but will everyone make it out alive?

Danny Dyer‘s Mick Carter was lost at sea at the end of EastEnders, and it appears he washed up in Australia!

Danny plays Steve, who goes on a normal holiday with family friends in the Australian outback.

But it turns out everyone in the house has their own secrets, which builds up to a devastating fire.

And not everyone will make it out alive.

Channel 5 also promises the series is a “premium action thriller” and it sounds like it will have us on the edge of our seats.
