Kevin Wicks is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Phil Daniels. Kevin made his first appearance on 17 February 2006, when he was introduced to the show alongside his two children, Carly (Kellie Shirley) and Deano (Matt Di Angelo). He was presented as the nephew of a long-running character, Pat Butcher (Pam St Clement).
It was announced on 18 August 2007 that Daniels had decided not to renew his contract. This resulted in his character, Kevin, being killed off in a car crash on 31 December 2007 in the show.[1] He is last seen in the next episode, broadcast on 1 January 2008, when his wife, Denise Fox (Diane Parish) visits his corpse.
