DANNY Dyer has quit his role as host of The Wall – meaning he has now cut all ties with the BBC.
The actor, who made an EastEnders legend of Mick Carter, once held a golden handcuffs deal with the Corporation.
But when our reporter asked if he’d be back on The Wall, Danny replied curtly: “No.”
The Saturday night show has run for three series with the Londoner at the helm.
A question mark now hangs over whether a new host will be found, with a BBC source suggesting the show would continue without Danny.
A spokesman said: “Whilst The Wall is off air, fans can stream their favourite episodes on iPlayer plus there are plenty of other great quiz and game shows currently airing on Saturday nights on BBC One including The Weakest Link, Celebrity Catchpoint and Pointless Celebrities amongst others.”

Danny’s 2018 deal with the Beeb meant he could not appear on other channels, but since handing in his notice to EastEnders in February this year, the telly hardman has taken up new contracts to feature on a quiz show for Netflix and a travel film for Channel 4 with his Love Island daughter Dani, 25.
And The Celeb Report revealed last week that Danny would be part of a four-part drama for Channel 5 which will be filmed down under.
It is expected to air on the network in 2023 and follows the success of ‘Lie With Me’ which starred Danny’s Walford co-star Charlie Brooks, 41.
There were rumours that he’d signed a mega-bucks deal with Sky but the channel confirmed they were “not currently working with him.”
