It’s already claimed the life of Martin Fowler, as actor James Bye bowed out of the role after 11 years.

But now fans are fearing four-legged resident has become another fatality of the blast.

Taking to social media, EastEnders viewers have pointed out there’s been no mention of Tyson the Chihuahua.

He’s the beloved dog of Gina and Anna Knight, who was introduced to the soap in 2023.

Posting on social media, with eagle-eyed fan said: “I will be requiring confirmation ASAP that Tyson survived the Vic explosion. Killing Martin is one thing but Tyson would be TOO FAR.”

A second wrote: “Tyson dead then?”

“What about #Tyson the dog? Am sure the kiddies went with a child minder so they are ok,” said a third.

While a fourth commented: “Ok as sad as it is that Martin dead but where’s Anna dog Tyson it’s been missing for nearly a year and no one noticed.”

Tyson is believed to be four years old and portrayed by Spud the dog.

His last on-screen reference was November 2024 when it was revealed he got scared by a firework.

Tyson hid under a bed at the Knight household before later pooing on the floor.

EastEnders continues on BBC One and iPlayer.
