EastEnders Christmas wedding sealed as couple get engaged ahead of murder whodunnit

EastEnders is lining up explosive scenes next week when one couple get engaged again ahead of the shock death and wedding this Christmas time.

This winter, Denise, Kathy, Linda, Sharon, Stacey and Suki are faced with a dead body in the Queen Vic, whose identity is yet to be revealed. One of the women are tipped to be the killer while details of what happens and who dies remain unknown but the victim is wearing amber cufflinks while Sharon is in a wedding dress.

Next week, a paranoid Sharon agrees to let Keanu collect Albie from pre-school and once back at No.45, asks him to propose again so she can accept. Later, Sharon and Keanu tell Mitch and Bernadette about their engagement as they prepare to celebrate in The Vic. Sharon tries to persuade Karen to join the celebrations but she refuses.

Later, Sharon is worried when she receives a phone call from the hospital requesting an urgent appointment to discuss Albie’s test results. Keanu tries to reassure Sharon as they anxiously prepare for Albie’s hospital appointment. Keanu is late so Sharon starts the appointment without him.

Keanu arrives and with the pair stunned by the news, they agree to have tests themselves. Later in the week, Sharon reels and lashes out at Keanu in The Vic for continuing with their engagement drinks before Zack finds her on Denny’s bench where she tearfully reveals all.

It comes as filming photos in October saw Sharon and Keanu’s wedding. In the photos, Sharon star Letitia Dean is seen wearing the wedding dress her character wears in the Christmas flashforward while Keanu star Danny Walters is seen wearing a smart suit with a Champagne-coloured tie.

The filming snaps have understandably got soap fans excited as they took to social media to share their theories, pointing out that Keanu star Danny, 30, has his hands hidden, speculating that he could be wearing the amber cufflinks therefore his character is the dead body this Christmas.

One person said: “Keanu’s hiding his hands behind his back because he’s got the cufflinks hasn’t he?! #Eastenders #Christmas”, a different account put: “Keanu and Sharon seem to be getting married His arms are behind his back in the photo! Putting two and two together I think he’s the body #EastEnders” while another fan added: “Keanu his hiding his hands behind his back. Cufflinks???”
