EastEnders star Adam Woodyatt has revealed that he is "overwhelmed" by the fan response to his current storyline.

The actor who plays Ian Beale on the hit TV show, suffered a breakdown during last night's episode when Mandy Salter left him on the morning of their wedding.

Ian was seen walking down the side of a motorway in his pyjamas and is now expected to be off screen for around six weeks while Lucy and Phil try to look for him.

Taking to his twitter page Woodyatt wrote: "I'm so overwhelmed by all your comments about last nights EE. Thank you. There are so many, Twitter won't let me download anymore!!

"It's taken nearly two hours to read them all. Great script from Simon Ashdown, direction from Ian White, and as ever our fantastic crews."
