Ricky Champ broke foot filming EastEnders scene

Ricky Champ broke his foot filming an explosive ‘EastEnders’ scene.
The 38-year-old actor, who plays Stuart Highway in the BBC One soap, injured himself while portraying his character smashing up his flat following a huge bust-up with Mick Carter (Danny Dyer).
Ricky posted a video of the dramatic scene, which sees him tear pictures off the wall and throw a chair over, and captioned the clip on Twitter: "Fractured my metatarsal in my foot shooting this scene. #dedication #EastEnders (sic)"
Fortunately, the former ‘Game of Thrones’ actor didn’t need hospital treatment.
An insider told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Ricky threw himself into the scene but luckily it was only a minor injury and filming wasn’t affected."
Stuart and Mick have clashed on numerous occasions in recent weeks after Mick’s auntie Tina Carter (Luisa Bradshaw-White) claimed he had trapped her in a boot of a car, gagged her, and written an offensive term on her back when they were youngsters.
In last night’s (24.07.18) episode, Stuart lied to some of the Albert Square residents that Tina had keyed his car in an attempt to get back at her, and he clashed with her in the laundrette and the Arches garage, before she wreaked revenge.
Tina grabbed a wrench and whacked him over the head with implement, and the doof doofs sounded with his unconscious body on the floor.
‘EastEnders’ were recently forced to defend the soap after police chiefs issued a warning to the public advising against becoming child abuse activists, after Stuart was revealed to be a paedophile-hunter.
An ‘EastEnders’ spokesperson said: "At no point is ‘EastEnders’ encouraging or glamorising predator hunting."
