BBC EastEnders fans ‘work out’ Nish’s fate as Christmas Day victim finally confirmed
EastEnders viewers were left stunned when the identity of both the Christmas Day victim and his killer were finally confirmed – but fans don't think the drama is over
EastEnders fans reckon they’ve figured out what will happen to Nish, after it was confirmed he was not the death in the Christmas Day episode.
Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry) didn’t get off without a few scratches, as he was hit over the head with a glass bottle by Denise (Diane Parish). However it was Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) who was killed, when Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) stabbed him to stop him strangling Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean).
Now though, fans reckon violent Nish will get his comeuppance, and the ladies will frame him for Keanu’s murder. Nish’s wife Suki (Balvinder Sopal) wanted to leave him to be with Eve Unwin (Heather Peace), but Nish had tried to drag her away.
She could get her wish though, as viewers are convinced Nish will be framed for Keanu’s bloody death. One said on social media: “Frame Nish for Keanu’s murder, I double dare you.”
Another agreed: “That would be such a good storyline.” Someone else theorised: “They gonna frame Nish for death of Keanu.”
Another said: “Don’t forget Nish also smacked Ravi earlier. Could make it look like Nish was on a rampage.” One fan added: “Please frame Nish for Keanu’s murder.”
Meanwhile, others believed Dean Wicks (Matt Di Angelo) could have stayed in the Vic and use the incident to blackmail Linda. Others pointed out Nish wouldn’t have a motive to kill Keanu.
Either way, it seems EastEnders in 2024 will be seriously dramatic. Executive producer Chris Clenshaw recently said he was “incredibly pleased” with the reaction to the storyline.
