The actor, who played Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter for eight years, hinted at a feud with some of his former co-stars during The Jonathan Ross Show including clashes with co-star Jessie Wallace (Kat Slater).
A source revealed to The Sunday Mirror: "Danny and Jessie are both very strong personalities and, while they never let it get in the way of their work, they did not get on.
"There was a lot of tension going on behind the scenes.

"Once, Danny even got himself into hot water when he was overheard saying he ‘hated’ her at an event.
"Anyone who worked with them both will be clear he had her in mind when he made his recent remarks."
Speaking on ITV's The Jonathan Ross Show, Danny revealed there were a few co-stars he would not miss, but "most of them I love dearly".
Danny left EastEnders at Christmas as millions of soap fans tuned in to watch his character plunge into the sea.
However his fate has not been confirmed, and the actor admitted that he wouldn’t rule out returning to Walford in the future.
Danny reportedly clashed with his co-star Jessie Wallace, who plays Kat Slater (BBC / Jack Barnes)Speaking about his exit, he said: "It’s a very emotional thing, it’s such a big part of me.
"I tell you what it is, I’m lazy… It’s f***ing hard. Thirty pages you’ve got to learn a day. It’s like a film a week."
He added: "[But] if it goes t**s up, I can go back. I can turn up in three years’ time and walk in the Queen Vic smothered in seaweed… they [the bosses] wanted to keep it open.
"I’m very privileged and grateful for that job. It really did change my career and my life."
