EastEnders fans unearth damning Linda Carter scene – and it’s a game-changer for the Christmas murder
The scene in question sees Linda talking to an agitated Max Branning in the laundrette.
EASTENDERS fans have unearthed a damning Linda Carter scene – and it’s a game-changer for the Christmas murder.
Linda is one of the six matriarchs involved in the highly anticipated Christmas death, which was first teased in a flashforward earlier this year.
In recent episodes, Linda got the shock of her life when her rapist – Dean Wicks – returned to Albert Square.
Dean had raped Linda nine years ago, but was never convicted of the crime.
Following his return, many EastEnders viewers have him down as the prime candidate to be the victim on Christmas Day.
And now, one soap fan has unearthed a clip of Linda saying she wanted to kill Dean, and think it’s a sign of what to come.
The scene in question sees Linda talking to an agitated Max Branning in the laundrette.
She tells him: “There has been times in my life where I felt that angry that I could have killed someone. Dean!”
The fan reshared the clip on X – formerly Twitter – and simply added: “Oh s***”.
Another commented: “the rest of the clip she says stuart and then says she wasn’t angry at ian enough to want to kill him…could that all change now?”
However, some fans are also convinced Linda’s mum Elaine Peacock is involved in the Christmas storyline despite not featuring in the flashforward.
Taking to X one soap fan wrote: “You know I’m done. Except for the Christmas murder which is set to be the best thing ever.
“Sharon, Linda, Denise, Kathy, Suki, and Stacey are set to kill a man on Christmas Day. But who? I say Elaine has Dean “a chip of the old block” killed over the head with a bust!”
Another added: “EastEnders Christmas – Who gets killed. Victim: – Dean Wicks. Attacker: – Elaine Peacock. Item Used: – Queen Vic Bust. Motive: – Protect George Knight (fighting Dean Wicks) and revenge for her daughter Linda (who was r*ped by Dean Wicks).”
A third agreed, writing: “THEORY! Dean is the body. Killer is Elaine or George. How is he killed: whacked round the head with a stool.”
Meanwhile a fourth tweeted: “Prediction. Elaine kills Dean on Christmas Day #EastEnders”.
EastEnders airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
