EastEnders aired the sudden exit of a character on Wednesday night, in a plot some viewers called a "mistake".
Viewers fumed as Finaly Baker departed the show in the latest episode, forced out of the famous location by the Panesar family following a run-in.
Actor Ashley Byam's final scenes aired on the BBC soap just a year after he joined as Mitch Baker's nephew, alongside brother Felix Baker and their dad Avery.
