A new theory has emerged…
Viewers of EastEnders believe they have identified the notorious Christmas mystery killer.
Six of Walford’s matriarchs, including Denise (Diane Parish), Kathy (Gillian Taylforth), Linda (Kellie Bright), Sharon (Letitia Dean), Stacey (Lacey Turner), and Suki (Balvinder Sopal), stood in the Queen Vic next to a dead body in a flash-forward scene to Christmas 2023.
With only 10 months until Christmas, EastEnders fans will have to wait a long time to learn what happened, who was killed, and who was responsible for the murder. Of course, this hasn’t stopped fans from speculating.
While many fan theories have focused on the six women’s potential motives for murder, a new theory suggests the matriarchs are actually just covering up the crime for someone else. Some fans have speculated that Vinny Panesar (Shiv Jalota), who will kill his father Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry), will do so in order to protect his mother, Suki.
Viewers know that Suki is currently trapped in an abusive relationship with manipulative Nish, who recently left prison and moved back into the family home, forcing Suki into a marriage blessing ceremony.
While Nish is currently unaware that Suki is secretly in love with Eve Unwin (Heather Peace), viewers think Vinny will end up killing Nish at Christmas as the love triangle takes a dramatic turn.
Prediction: Becuse Ash is going and she can’t be Nish’s potential killer anymore. It should be Vinny! He’ll begin to (hopefully) realise his mistake in letting Nish live on the square and possibly kill him to protect Suki. #EastEnders

On the new theory, one viewer tweeted: “Prediction: Because Ash is going and she can’t be Nish’s potential killer anymore. It should be Vinny! He’ll begin to (hopefully) realise his mistake in letting Nish live on the square and possibly kill him to protect Suki.”
Another fan added: “All that a few weeks ago from Suki about needing to keep Vinny safe? I feel Vinny will eventually take Nish out & Suki will do something major to avoid another kid going to prison. Also cause Vinny was the original one meant to go to prison. I feel it! #EastEnders.”
Suki is bonkers pretty. I approve. #EastEnders

In previous interviews with RadioTimes.com and other media outlets, Suki actress Sopal stated that she wanted her character to be the Christmas murderer.
Suki, she said, “would be my preference because I believe it adds an extra dangerous element to her, but who knows?
“It literally could be anyone who meets their fate,” she continued. I believe that Keanu, Rocky, Nish, someone who hasn’t appeared on the show in a while, or someone new who joins, could all be candidates. And I believe that all the women could be involved.
