EastEnders fans 'rumble' Jack Branning murder twist as he 'knows' about Denise affair

EastEnders viewers think a major twist has been rumbled, and that it could reveal the identity of the mystery character being killed off this Christmas.

A recent flashforward clip revealed one male character will die on Christmas Day this year, with six characters currently in the frame.

Denise Fox, Stacey Slater, Suki Panesar, Kathy Beale, Sharon Watts and Linda Carter all feature in the scene, with some major clues included.

From cut lips, bloodied clothes and ripped dresses to a possible weapon, there's also the fact the dead body is wearing a suit and cufflinks.

Both they and Sharon are dressed for a wedding it seems, with The Queen Vic decorated for a reception.

Viewers have been predicting who will die and who the killer will be, as it's been hinted that one of the six women are the murderer.

But amid speculation that none of the women will be the killer, some fans watching Wednesday's episode believed they had worked out who dies.

Denise has recently betrayed her husband Jack Branning by sharing a kiss with Ravi Gulati.

Ravi has since been trying to woo Denise, encouraging her to give into temptation in a full blown affair.

Despite Denise initially refusing to give in, recent trouble with husband Jack has led to her feeling alone and unwanted.

On Wednesday night, Ravi booked them a hotel room and gave her the keycard only for Denise to misplace it.

The episode ended with Denise being left shocked, when it was revealed Jack had found the keycard and he soon confronted her about it.

Viewers believe Jack has worked out the affair, and that this could lead to him being the murder victim later in the year.

Taking to Twitter, one fan said: "Jack must know about Ravi because given the scene of him and Callum at the station, they must’ve been tracking Ravi’s movement?"

Another agreed: "With Jack becoming so intense & also scary it wouldn’t surprise me if his behaviour doesn’t become out of control & it’s him they end up killing on Christmas Day. Your thoughts?"

But some fans questioned if it could be proof that Ravi is the murder victim, after suspecting a blackmail plot.

One fan questioned: "Does anyone else think Ravi knows Jack is onto him and is using Denise to get her into bed so he’s got something to blackmail her with?"

A second said: "With Ravi soon to find himself under actual investigation what if he's totally just using Denise to find out just exactly what Jack & the police actually do/don't know? Easy blackmail. "Get Jack to back off of I'll destroy your marriage" & all that right?"

EastEnders airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7:30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
