BBC EastEnders’ Nish Panesar’s revenge against The Six ‘sealed’ after worrying clue

EastEnders fans are convinced it isn’t over between Nish Panesar and The Six after their Christmas Day showdown.

Viewers believe a clue in the latest episode of the BBC soap may have teased what was on the cards, after Nish’s fate was confirmed. A scene with his wife Suki Panesar and then a later one with his son Vinny left fans sure he had something terrible planned, and could be out for revenge.

Despite claiming in the latest episode that he did not remember the events of Christmas that saw him almost killed, some fans were sure he knew more than he was letting on. But this asides, fans were sure his latest antics were a sign he was out to get more than one Walford resident.

The character has been in a coma for weeks ever since he was hit over the head with a glass bottle, by Denise Fox. On Christmas Day, Nish’s actions including his plot to kill wife Suki’s lover Eve Unwin finally came to light, resulting in a deadly showdown.

Suki had vowed to leave Nish after he attacked her, before he turned on his own family. With the help of Kathy Beale, Stacey Slater, Sharon Watts, Denise and

Fans know that Nish headed to the pub to confront Suki, and when she asked for a divorce and things didn’t go his way he turned violent. As he dragged her towards the doors no doubt ready to take his revenge, The Six battled to stop him hurting Suki and Denise attacked him.

He was declared dead only for Suki to revive him, and since then Nish has been in a coma. On Tuesday we saw him regain consciousness, and he was quick to claim he could not remember what had happened to him.

While he knew he was at The Vic and seemingly that The Six were all there, he said he didn’t know who he was attacked by. He then raged at Suki claiming she had taken everything from him after she repeated that she no longer wanted to be with him.

After granting her her divorce, he also fumed at son Vinny over the situation and what Suki had apparently put him through. As Vinny told Nish he was doing the right thing by letting Suki live her life, viewers could see a sign that he was not going to do this despite his claims.

The camera panned down to the side of the hospital bed, where Nish was seen clenching the blanket into his hand. Pulling his hand into a fist, his hand was shaking with anger as he heard Vinny talk of Suki and her new life.

Taking to X, viewers shared their theories that whether Nish was lying about his memory or not, he only had one plan of action in mind. Viewers are convinced Nish will take revenge on Suki, or perhaps he will target all of The Six.

One viewer admitted: “glad he’s alive because I know he’s about to reach his full villain potential as soon as he’s back on his feet.” Another said: “Nish is a complete psycho!” as a third commented: “Nish is coming for The Six.”

A further comment read: “I bet Nish is going to threaten Suki!” as another fan said: “Suki giving Nish an actual chance to redeem himself, to reflect upon and change his behaviour is brilliant and of course he’s not going to take it because he’s going to glean a clue from it instead, but damn. That is some incredible character writing.”
