| Dyer soaking up the sun before the real life holiday showdown began! |
Danny Dyer's Deadliest Holiday Showdown was due to follow a similar formula to Holiday Showdown, which has been previously shown on ITV, but with the twist that it is Danny Dyer who takes an infamous "hard man" on a holiday of his choice for 3 days before embarking on a further 3 days on a holiday of the "hard man's" choice. However, plans to record a series of 6 episodes have been dumped after Dyer has branded the hard men chosen for the series "unpredictable" following an dramatic incident in which Irons attacked Dyer with a china plate during filming scenes at the dinner buffet at the Hotel El Savanya in holiday hot spot Magaluf on the island of Majorca.
In scenes released to the media following a press conference with ITV bosses yesterday, Dyer is clearly seen just minutes before the attack shuffling about on the spot, sweating and saying that he "feels edgy" and that he is worried that "theres gonna be a tear up here." Ironically the last words Dyer utters before the plate based attack are "Calm down Johnny me old china!" Irons was arrested but later released on bail. In a statement released to the press Irons stated "I was a villain and a hard man in Blackpool in my younger years, but I have grown up and changed and I am no longer the thug I once was. However, Dyer's incessant cockney babbling would test the patience of a saint and I snapped. I apologise to Dyer, his family and ITV for this incident."
So where does this leave Dyer, who has left a string of successful programmes on Bravo in to join the ITV team? Having now terminated his contract at ITV Dyer is currently in talks with the FX channel to launch a series in which he investigates real life crimes with a paranormal aspect entitled "Dyers Deadliest Paranormal Real Life Crimes."
