Matt Di Angelo: 'The live EastEnders is going to make some waves!' (VIDEO)

Matt Di Angelo says the EastEnders live episode and live scenes are 'intense' and 'crazy'.

Speaking at the National TV Awards, Matt, who plays Dean Wicks, told What's on TV: "We're just getting ready for the live episodes, which are... intense, they're crazy. From the scripts that I've seen a lot of it is censored, a lot of it's not coming through to you unless you're involved with it...

"From what I've seen it's going to make some waves."

Matt is currently in the thick of a dramatic storyline in which his character raped Linda Carter, and he added: "The storyline's been taken... well, in aspects of how dark it is."
