Nancy Carter

Nancy is a proper East End girl with the traditional values to match. She loves her family BUT they also drive her absolutely mental.

About Nancy
Nancy is definitely one of the lads and is rarely seen in anything other than her joggers. Even though she is one of the guys, she still knows how to play them. She loves the chase but isn’t too bothered about settling down with a bloke. But in the meantime she is happy to have fun with the wrong ones – much to Mick and Linda’s dismay!

As much as her parents wind her up, Nancy is keen to follow in their footsteps. She is the brains of the family but didn’t want to waste her time or money on going to uni. Instead she wants to see out her parents’ vision of a proper East End boozer and make The Vic a true Carter family business! 

Storylines
Nancy Carter is the daughter of Mick and Linda Carter. She made her first appearance on 1st January 2014 when about to marry Wayne Ladlow in Watford. Wayne's attitude towards Nancy at the wedding disgusts Mick, who carries her away over his shoulder before they are married. She is taken by her parents to live with them in their new pub, The Queen Victoria, but Nancy continues to see Wayne in Walford. After punching Dexter Hartman publicly after he accidentally gropes her, Nancy reveals that her younger brother Johnny Carter is gay during a family argument. Nancy ends her relationship with Wayne when she realizes that he has been showing his friends private pictures of her on his phone. When in the park with Dexter and Lady Di, Nancy collapses and suffers an epileptic fit. Dexter takes care of her and makes it clear that he finds Nancy attractive. When she is down in The Queen Vic cellar changing the barrels, Dexter joins her and attempts to seduce her by removing his shirt. She is impressed and as they are about to kiss, they hear groaning from the alleyway and find a shaken Masood Ahmed lying on the ground, having just been mugged in the street. Nancy also provides a place for Tamwar Masood to stay after his father Masood punches him in the brink of a heated argument. It is made apparent that due to Nancy's epilepsy, she was previously unable to join the British army and serve like her brother Lee Carter.
