Another incredible episode. There's only so many times I can say it but the show really is firing on all cylinders at the moment. It feels like an age since a soap has had a prolonged period like this on such top form and long may it continue.

I totally agree, there is so much happening it's hard to keep up and I say that as a huge compliment and I'm super excited for the next few episodes.

It's one of the strongest eras of the show for a very very long time and long may it last, as I always say when the show is on form no other soap comes close.

I feel like that text was clearly from Dean

100% from Dean! Gives her an excuse to wallop him one at the wedding. But basically, weall know the body will be Nish. They won't kill off Ravi, as he is their eye candy.

If there’s one good thing about this Dean saga, it’s more screen time for Kellie Bright. Her, Bal, Diane and Lacey are the best actors in this show for sure.

 

Final prediction for the body after seeing tonight’s episode

I think is Jack. Whilst it seems a bit obvious, they’ve been building up all week, for a long-standing character to be the body I think will be a big shock and have reprucussions, compared to someone like Nish who feels like he’s had a shelf life since he arrived. Either that or I think it’s someone totally unexpected who isn’t in the seven in the promo.

 

Agreed!! On acting, I thought Eve'a suff duff lines came across a little flat. Could have been the writing though.

 

And no way will hw die!! He'a one of the producers' golden boys.

I think I agree with your prediction there, Liam.

 

With no more episodes until the biggie, it kind of feels like Kathy had been a little left out of the Six-bit I’d have said Linda was occupying that situation until a couple of months ago. Will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

I'm 96% on it bein Nish. Won't be Phil.

Nah I'm almost certain it won't be Nish or Ravi, if it's going to be any of the Panesars I would say Vinny but I don't see that either. I think we're meant to think it's Jack, the fact Lauren and Penny are meant to come back for something would lead you to believe it's his funeral or something but I think that's too obvious. After tonight's episode I'm still backing my Bernie theory like her now losing her home and Keanu being completely unhelpful and selfish only adds more fuel to that, he could very well be the body. I definitely think it's going to be an accidental type murder which would also make sense for Bernie. I honestly don't know how Kathy and Rocky even fit into it like what are they even doing? It's no secret Rocky is leaving anyway. It could also be Dean but I feel like that would be quite an anti-climax, I kinda hate that we're away back to the Linda and Dean storyline but at least it's more screen time for Kellie as Liam mentioned.

 

I can't see past it being a 7th killer, maybe this is how Shirley makes her grand return? Her killing Dean would be quite iconic, I think if it was going to be him that's how I'd like it to play out. It could be Gina or Anna as well for Dean, might give some purpose to Gina getting close to him and we know she has quite a short fuse so it's possible.

 

The worst thing they could do is make it someone completely random like it's one thing straying from the six and the already identified potential victims but it's still got to make sense in the context of everything that's been building up, if it turns out to be like Jay or Alfie or someone and it's so unexpected that it makes zero sense I'll be really disappointed but this seems to be a great team of writers and the whole flashforward concept requires good storytelling to get to that point so I'll stay optimistic there x

I still wouldn’t put it past EE to have either the killer be someone not in the 6 or the body be someone not in the suspects. But then there’s the option of potentially two bodies.

 

There’s absolutely no way Phil Mitchell is leaving. It would never be able to be kept quiet and Steve McFadden wouldn’t get an exit like this either I don’t think I think when that time comes it will be more of a Peggy esque death or alcohol related.

 

Dean / Nish feel most likely for the death id say if it definitely is someone in the suspects promo it’s more the killer in leaning to think could be someone else. I think ive ruled Stacey out as the killer because twice on Christmas Day in the vic would be a bit much even for our Stace :lol: Denise being the one holding the bottle too makes me think she isn’t the killer either.

 

I’m going to give another watch to the episode and attempt at making a final decision just to see how off I am. Back in February I said Lily killing Ryan but that’s definitely not happening as soon as the next episode anyway :lol:

Weirdly enough I had a similar thought about Gina being involved and killing Dean after the way the last couple of episodes have panned out with that storyline. I had kind of ruled him out because it seemed far too obvious but they seem to have been buliding up Nish and even Jack as 'obvious suspects' too. Dean also just jumps out to me as the one where it would make the most sense for all of the six women to be motivated to cover it up.

 

So i'll go with my final prediction as it comes about as a result of this "Dean wants forgiveness from Linda" strand, as a result of his persistence he ends up getting into a struggle with one of the other six (broken bottle?) and Gina who has overheard in the background comes from behind to deliver the blow.

 

Could be absolutely miles off though, very buzzed to be tuning in on Christmas Day. :lol:
