BBC EastEnders fans ‘rumble’ The Six’s downfall after ‘mistake’ amid new Christmas death bombshell

EastEnders fans think they have figured out The Six’s downfall after a new bombshell on Wednesday amid the explosive Christmas death.

In shocking scenes on Christmas Day, Keanu Taylor was killed by Linda Carter when he attempted to strangle Sharon Watts after she refused to let him see Albie. Earlier in the day, Sharon had called the wedding off, having learned that Keanu was a part of the kidnapping plot for Albie.

As a result, Sharon revealed to Keanu that Albie wasn’t his son, before Phil Mitchell heard the truth – that he was the biological dad to Albie. It led to a big confrontation when Keanu headed to the Queen Vic and as he strangled Sharon, Linda stepped in to save her.

On Tuesday’s episode, The Six decided to bury the body after dragging it across the Square in a sheet of tarpaulin, hiding it in the derelict café following the fire. The Six thought their secret was safe until Rocky Cotton, who had attempted to go in the pub on Christmas Day before passing out drunk in Albert Square, dropped a bombshell.

Wednesday’s episode ended with Rocky telling estranged partner Kathy Beale: “Kath, I remember what happened and what I saw last night. It was Sharon, I saw Sharon, I think she must be helping Keanu, she was stood outside the café, in her wedding dress, then she went in! Why would she do that, I think she’s hiding something in there, I’m going to find out!”

Soap watchers were quick to point out The Six’s downfall as Rocky’s claims could be supported with CCTV, which would also show the other five women involved and Keanu’s dead body. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: “So there’s no CCTV and no doorbell cameras in Albert Square? #Eastenders”, a different account put: “Does CCTV not exist in the world of eastenders! #Eastenders” while another added: “Just watched today’s episode are the police really that dumb surely by now they would of checked CCTV and seen them lumping a suspicious body shaped package out of the pub and into the cafe #EastEnders.”

Elsewhere, with The Six trying to frame Keanu for the attack on Nish Panesar, who Denise hit on the head with a Champagne bottle to save Suki, some fans think Rocky might end up getting blamed for it all as actor Brian Conley is set to leave the BBC One soap.

Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: “Rocky is going to get caught snooping in the cafe. He’s gonna be found with Keanu’s body and sent down for his murder #EastEnders”, a different account put: “They’re gonna frame poor Rocky #eastenders” while another added: “#EastEnders Rocky is leaving tomorrow or Thursday after today’s doof doof cuz he’s gonna search the cafe, maybe the Six Will frame him when they see Keanu’s body.”
