Danny Dyer wrecked James Buckley’s wedding reception by smoking in the toilets and setting off the fire alarms.
The Inbetweeners star tied the knot with Scottish model Clair Meek at Dundas Castle near Edinburgh. Their big day included a number of celebrity guests including James’ sitcom co-stars Simon Bird, Joe Thomas and Blake Harrison plus close pal Danny and his wife Joanne, who he wed in 2016.
But the former ’Enders star caused chaos by lighting up in the toilet, triggering a smoke detector. Clair recalled: “I remember our wedding, everything was going fine, but then late on in the reception somebody decided to have a cigarette in the toilet.

“Now, of all the people at our wedding, who do you think was drunk enough to have a cigarette in the toilet? Danny Dyer! Ruined our reception, it happens.” The November 2012 bash had a big impact on Danny. He posted a pic of the pair’s first dance, writing: “A lovely cute couple. I almost wanna get married. (almost).”
It comes after Danny was hit with a major blow to his TV career after Netflix bosses ditched his new game show after just one series. He had been presenting an intense game show on Netflix, together with comedienne and Ted Lasso star Ellie Taylor. Titled Cheat, the show was one of the cheeky chap’s first TV gigs after he chose to leave Walford last Christmas.
But The Sun has now reported that bosses at the streaming platform have called time on the project, ending the show after just on season. Speaking to the publication, a source close to the show claimed that the show’s premise had run its course. “Danny was great as host, as was Ellie, but Netflix thought one series was just about right,” the insider said. “It didn’t pick up a big following and will hardly go down in game show folklore. He enjoyed making the series, especially banking the pay cheque.”

Cheat’s premise is to see contestants lie their way through a quiz in order to win a cool £50,000. Those competing on the show were pushed to cheat by giving the impression they knew the answers, but had to ensure they were not caught out.
Danny, ever the wordsmith, would regularly berate the contestants, branding them “rascals” and “lying scumbags”, amongst other things. But as one project ends, Danny is patiently waiting to see if another show he is on will be brought back.
Together with daughter Dani, Dyer hosts a travel series with the Love Island winner on E4. No information has been revealed on whether the show will be making a return to screens.
Danny is keen to keep the money flowing in after he chose to leave Albert Square in dramatic scenes last year. Since his time on the BBC soap ended, he has been spotted in a number of shows including Channel 5 drama Heat, as well as hit new Disney+ series Rivals.
