EastEnders viewers 'rumble' sick Theo's link to Christmas death as victim 'solved'

EastEnders believe they know who dies at Christmas, after a sinister Stacey Slater twist aired this week.

Newcomer Theo was revealed to be hiding something sickening, as it was revealed he was obsessed with Stacey.

Fans know that Stacey has been uploading pictures and content to a site called Secret Cam, in a bid to raise some extra cash.

But Stacey had shared that one client in particular had been desperate to see her face, and had been persistent with her content.

Theo has now been revealed as the client asking for her to appear on cam, after he was shown signing in and viewing her content this week.

All the while, recent weeks have seen the new character getting closer to the Slaters and helping them out with things.

From buying pregnant 12-year-old Lily Slater expensive trainers and helping Freddie Slater with his ADHD referral, to even offering Lily tutoring for free, Theo has appeared to go above and beyond for the family for no real reason.

He was introduced as an old teacher of Freddie's earlier this year, but since then he has spent more and more time with the family.

Theo even goes on a date with Stacey in upcoming scenes, with it becoming more and more clear what his intentions are. Only Martin Fowler, Stacey's ex, is concerned about his behaviour for the time being.

Viewers are now panicked for Stacey, fearing the worst and that Theo might leave her in danger. Not only that, but they think it could lead to dramatic scenes this Christmas.

Viewers know that a male character will be killed on Christmas Day, with their identity not yet revealed. A flashforward clip shows six females including Stacey in The Queen Vic just as the death happens.

Stacey's hands are covered in blood and she stares at a dead body on the ground. Other characters are injured or have their clothes torn, while Denise Fox is holding a broken wine bottle.

Could Theo take things too far, leading to Stacey killing him? Might the other ladies also be caught up in dark scenes with the creepy character?

Fans certainly thing so, with many speculating Theo will be the dead body this Christmas. Taking to Twitter, viewers shared their thoughts on him being the person that dies.

One viewer said: "I wonder if the dead body at Christmas is going to be Theo??". Another fan tweeted: "Maybe Theo is the body at Christmas?"

A third fan said: "martins hunch was right it seems Theo is not nice at all could he be the dead body at Christmas," while a fourth fan wrote: "Could Theo be the body at Christmas."

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