Danny Moon is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders played by Jake Maskall.[1] He made his first appearance on 30 December 2004, and was initially supposed to last appear in July 2005,[2] but reappeared on 24 March 2006 before the character was killed off on 31 March 2006.
The character debuted alongside his older brother Jake (Joel Beckett), and is established as a cousin of established character Alfie Moon (Shane Richie). During his time on the show, Danny is involved in several plot lines that contribute to his strained relationship with both Jake and their boss Johnny Allen (Billy Murray). This involves Danny sparking a feud with mob boss Andy Hunter (Michael Higgs); entering a relationship with Andy's ex-wife Sam Mitchell (Kim Medcalf); and killing local hardman Dennis Rickman (Nigel Harman) on Johnny's request.
In March 2006, Danny's character arc ended during the Get Johnny Week storyline, when he attempts to kill Sam's brothers Phil (Steve McFadden) and Grant (Ross Kemp) on Johnny's orders - only to be accidentally killed by Jake after the latter discovered the truth about Dennis' murder. As such, Jake also comes to realize through Danny's "bond" with Johnny's daughter Ruby (Louisa Lytton) of just how their involvement in Johnny's criminal reign has rendered Danny mentally unstable beyond repair — thus destroying their brotherly interaction in the process.
