EastEnders fans whittle Christmas Day victim down to two suspects after spotting new clue
Viewers felt the song playing in the background was a sign of what's to come in two week's time.
EASTENDERS fans think they have whittled down the Christmas Day victim to two suspects after spotting a new ‘clue’.
Tonight’s episode saw Kathy Beale finally find out that husband Rocky had set fire to the cafe in a bid to clear his gambling debts.
Kathy kicked him out and said she never wanted to see him again, but that wasn’t the only drama in Walford this evening.
A new feud is brewing between Keanu Taylor and Dean Wicks, and in the pub, Dean took a swipe at his rival.
As Keanu chatted with fiancee Sharon, Dean paused near them and said: “Always nice to see a son taking his mother out for a drink.”
Keanu immediately sprung out of his seat and said “Say that again!” but Sharon pulled him back, telling him Dean was not worth it.
Dean replied: “Whoa I was just making a joke.”
As Keanu called him a “scumbag”, Linda Carter saw Dean and said: “You just can’t help yourself can you?”
George Knight told him to go and Dean said: “I know, I know, I’m still barred…I honestly didn’t come here for any trouble.”
But turning back to Keanu, he added: “Although you’ve got some with me now boy.”
Sharon continued to hold Keanu back, but EastEnders viewers were more interested in the fact that East 17 classic Stay Another Day was playing in the background throughout the exchange.
As die-hard fans will know, the track featured in the flashforward, and so it’s left a number of them convinced it was a sign that either Keanu or Dean will be the dead body on Christmas Day.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one wrote: “STAY ANOTHER DAY AS KEANU AND DEAN ARGUE. F*** OFF. ITS ONE OF THEM TWO.”
Another added: “Oop. Dean and Keanu dramas incoming.”
A third tweeted: “Keanu deffo tells jade about dean being a rapist which would kickstart their beef for Christmas.”
EastEnders airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
