An eagle-eyed EastEnders fan believes they have uncovered a clue in Lola Pearce's emotional message that may reveal the show's upcoming murder victim.
Christmas Day murder twist
BBC officials have already confirmed that the highly-anticipated Christmas Day episode of EastEnders will feature a shocking murder twist. The storyline, known as The Six, began with a flash forward episode in February and will culminate in the murder of a male resident of Walford.
Clue in Lola's message
During Lola's heartfelt message, some fans noticed that the camera panned to Rocky, leading them to speculate that he may be the murder victim. Rocky, played by Brian Conley, has been at the center of recent drama on the show.
Six potential suspects
The murder mystery will involve six female characters: Linda Carter, Sharon Watts, Kathy Beale, Denise Fox, Stacey Slater, and Suki Panesar. Each of these women will be aware of the killing and one of them will be responsible for the crime.
A possible exit strategy
Brian Conley's unexpected departure from the show in September has left fans wondering if his character's potential murder could serve as a way to explain his exit. It was reported that Conley left the soap after BBC bosses prohibited actors from participating in pantomimes during the Christmas season.
An emotional return
In a heartwarming twist, Lola Pearce, portrayed by actress Danielle Harold, made an unexpected return to EastEnders in a video message to her husband Jay Brown. Lola's message was filled with love and Christmas wishes, but also hinted at the emotional turmoil her absence has caused.
EastEnders fans will have to tune in to the Christmas Day episode to discover the truth behind the murder and the identity of the victim. It promises to be a gripping and emotional storyline that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
