EastEnders star Adam Woodyatt has signed a new £320,000 contract with the BBC soap.
The actor, who plays Ian Beale, will now stay on the show for at least another year. News of Adam's new deal comes after producers denied a tabloid report claiming that Ian would be killed off earlier this month.
An insider told The Mirror: "Adam is the last man standing from the starting lineup and there's always the possibility that he might go and do something else after 22 years in Albert Square.
"However, he's got some brilliant storylines coming up and he's decided now is not the time for a departure. Everyone is thrilled he's staying."
