BBC EastEnders fans beg character to 'stop' as they cringe over 'weird' nickname

EastEnders viewers have been left cringing over newcomer Penny Branning's choice of nickname for her dad Jack, as they beg her to 'stop' calling him 'Big Man Jack'

EastEnders fans have been left cringing over Penny Branning's (Kitty Castledine) nickname for her dad Jack (Scott Maslen).
