EastEnders fans sickened by Mick's 'cringe' proposal to Janine
EastEnders viewers are desperate for the couple to end their romance after they felt nauseous during Mick Carter's proposal to Janine Butcher.
EastEnders viewers want Mick Carter (Danny Dyer) and Janine Butcher's (Charlie Brooks) relationship to end after their "cringe" proposal, with fans demanding for a sick bucket during the uncomfortable scene.
During last night's EastEnders episode (Monday, November 7) Mick was still unhappy with the way Janine broke the news about their engagement to a heartbroken Linda Carter (Kellie Bright).
Mick's mum Shirley Carter (Linda Henry) was fuming at the discovery that Janine was going to be her daughter-in-law and confronted Mick, who told her all about his 'romantic' proposal — to quote Mick he was "whacking in some diesel in the motor" at the petrol station when he and Janine agreed to get married.
Linda could tell that Mick's heart wasn't in it and she asked him how he was truly feeling.
He said that things didn't go as he pictured them with Janine telling the whole Square and trying to be the supportive ex-wife, Linda encouraged him to go into the marriage properly or not at all.
Shirley vowed to put a stop to their relationship, but Linda told her that it was Mick's choice.
Later on, Janine's daughter Scarlett Butcher (Tabitha Byron) revealed to Mick that she wanted to start calling him dad.

"Well, Scarlett, I think I've made a mistake," Mick said.
The pair were thrown by his unexpected reaction, before Mick did a heartfelt speech about how he thought he would never find love again.
Linda's words clearly made an impact on Mick as he got down on one knee and officially asked Janine to be his wife and she delightfully agreed. The three of them then had a group hug and were over the moon by the news.
Fans were cringing at Mick's proposal to soap villain Janine and felt sick during the scene...
